Same on Merseyside between Everton and Liverpool and in N London between Arse and Tottenham. It's just that in each case the one that has been more successful down the years has attracted more glory hunters with no local connections. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166720 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:44:30 +0000 Perks 166720@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>@BJ- anything north of Birmingham on the left is Manchester. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166706 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 23:15:08 +0000 Mandy Lifeboat 166706@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Trafford is part of Salford - that is priceless. Even now the good conservative denziens of Altrincham and Sale are having nightmares at the thought. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166678 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 19:16:32 +0000 ianslat 166678@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>What I find funny is united probably being fined because ferguson didn't talk to the press afterwards as demanded by uefa's contracts with sponsors and the media. You don't have to say anything if you're arrested but you do if you've just played a football match. Talk about selling your soul to the devil. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166606 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 13:48:34 +0000 Titus 166606@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Is there any truth in the rumour that Liverpool are to produce a <em>proper</em> football team and join the Six Nations tournament as a 7th Nation? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166600 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 13:37:41 +0000 beau-jolly 166600@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Well they are both within the M60 so in my book are in Manchester. Much the same as anything inside the M25 is "London".<br /> We have a football team in Shaftesbury. I've never watched them play but I have played boule against their club's team. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166589 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 12:43:49 +0000 Lucy4 166589@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Old Trafford is south of the ship canal which puts it in Manchester and this myth about all Mancunians supporting City is a load of bollocks. There are just as many United supporters. My God! I nearly dropped off there, talking about football. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166555 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 10:29:21 +0000 AReader 166555@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Manchester United is in Trafford which is part of the city of Salford. The real local Manchester team is Man City.</p> <p>Most Mancunians support City, and most foreigners United.</p> <p>In Liverpool, most Scousers support Everton regard Liverpool FC as some late, fly-by-night flash-in-the-pan well past their glory days. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166518 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 22:13:13 +0000 Ironduke 166518@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>define 'to do with Manchester'.</p> <p>I suppose there is the name and location of the stadium...after that, I'm struggling. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166476 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:54:24 +0000 bonjonelson 166476@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>And also, why does anyone give a flying fuck about anything at all to do with Manchester? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166475 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 17:53:48 +0000 bonjonelson 166475@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I clearly don't understand much of this football stuff. Why are they called Manchester United when it seems that Manchester is divided into two diffferent teams? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166452 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 14:11:20 +0000 Lucy4 166452@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>What happened, did they show up a fashionable two hours late and everyone had gone home? </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166447 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:37:51 +0000 Oxbridge 166447@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Just a game? I'm pissing myself at Satan's team's hilarious exit, esp. since Tottenham old boy Luka Modric did the deed. Admittedly Franco's team isn't much of an improvement. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166437 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:15:50 +0000 Titus 166437@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Good grief - do they televise football nowadays?</p> <p>Yet another reason why I'm glad I don't have a TV.

Of course it was on a big screen. You're not all going to go to the Bristol City ground to watch the United match on a small screen are you? You could stay at home and do that. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166432 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:42:49 +0000 Perks 166432@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Father in law is a season ticket holder at Bristol City. Have said for 14 years I would go to a game but never happened until the end of last year. He got me a ticket for boxing days home game against watford. 14 years if waiting culminated in the game being delayed 15 mins then called off because of a torrential down pour and waterlogged pitch! Here's to waiting another 14 years </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166427 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 12:15:43 +0000 Midfield Diamond 166427@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Colleague: Where did you watch the game last night?<br /> Me: Ashton Gate<br /> Colleague (looking puzzled): Where's that?<br /> Me: Bristol City's ground<br /> Colleague: You went to Bristol?<br /> Me: Yes, shit game but better than watching TV.<br /> Colleague: Was it on a big screen then?</p> <p>At this point I just shook my head and walked away. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=57416#post-166418 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 10:59:16 +0000 Username 166418@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Indeed.
