Madchester a PR Scam

Yeah its an odd setup, Manchester is like a huge hunrgy baby eating everything on its way.
I think the Greater bit of Greater Manchester is the bit that expands into other areas though I could be wrong.

It goes back to the days of the GLC and the GMC etc.

By the way, have you got something against middle class southerners?

I used to be quite bad for my dislike of Middle class southerners not any more, some of my best mates are MCS
I went through three years at Bristol University with MCS who were either really rude, or stereotyped me cos I was from Salford/Manchester, ie references to drugs/drug dealers/do you own a gun/do any of your mates ect
But out of every different group of peeps there is always some who are really sound regardless of where they come from.

I just did exactly the same, I feel shaken now
I read this from the start without noticing the dates.

The Smiths are from Manchester aren't they?

But yes, plenty of (southern) people don't know the differences between parts of "Manchester", but then I see the South as London and the West Country, further subdivision is unecessary imo.


edited to add: Ohhhh, yeah, talk about raising the dead. Whoops.

If places as far away as Didsbury are Manchester, then I would class Salford as the same. Do you expect all the bands to have born in the Arndale or something?
