    Really? I couldn't get tickets for some friends to see the Reading game last season. I could of got tickets for them and their extended families this season.

    I don't think the massive increase in support people were forecasting happened at all. The only thing which has happened is that Away tickets are harder to get, but I can understand why Liverpool away has more of an attraction than Barnsley away to be fair.

    Its not ridiculous its fact and living up this way its quite a big thing trust me and 56% of Mancunians support United? I have never encountered that amount before, always been City in the City and United outwards, similar to Everton and Liverpool.

    That's a borough of Manchester. If you're not going to include boroughs, then I guess there are no London football teams because none are based within the City of London.

    Arsenal, Chelsea, Fulham, Tottenham, West Ham and QPR are in GREATER London. Are you going to tell me they're not London teams?

    I was making the point that I don't think the Etihad's location can be all that important to City fans as it only moved to it's current location in 2003. The old stadium was only about 3kms from Old Trafford for God's sake.

    Manchester United is in the City of Salford?

    Total, complete and utter twaddle. Tripe of the highest order.

    Salford is on the other side of the ship canal from Old Trafford.

    You really are a twit.

    Trafford is in Greater Manchester is it not? Salford is the nearest City? Am I wrong, its an anomoly that it does not come under one City or another but its cetainly not Manchester.

    The location of a football ground makes one hell of a difference, keioc for instance, or when we were going to move out of the City boundary.
