We might not be the centre for culture here , but see the crime rates in Manchester , gun crime , gang warfare  , no go areas even for the police , plus drugs are very prevalent there far more than here , added to that ghettos over flowing with certain ethic groups . I know where I would not want to be .  Young persons city centre,  avoided by mature people .

Just click-bait isn't it?

Good and bad everywhere.

All just generalised nonsense again. As stated above, declaring a whole town as bad, then an entire city like Manchester as the greatest place on earth....nonsense.

Totally agree.

Dont understand why Tommy Turgoose gives them the time of day, surely he can see he is just adding to their claptrap???

How many other Towns have raised over £110,000 in 8 weeks for their football club,

A non league football club at that.

This articles must really urine off people who went in to journalism for the serious stuff.

Poor written, poorly researched and written only with the intention of causing a bit of a stir. Like this cretins opinion is valid. The fact he refers to all of Manchester as being great says it all. Like anywhere else, London included, it's good bits are great, its bad bits are bad...simple as that.

Mind you, the telewag don't help, they only ever seem to put effort in to the negative stories...

"A lie can travel halfway round the world before the truth has got its trousers on"

Scandal , gossip and making excrement up has proved a better business model than serious journalism. We're a nation of headline readers.
