It's true. There was a meeting in Manchester where the league was formally founded.
Yes but the Manchester representative from Dartmouth only went for the prawn cocktails.

Manchester really grinds my gears. I am in Manchester right now and it is grinding my gears as I Swype.

It was only potted shrimp and jellied eels in those days.

However they try to rewrite history, we know the truth.
Be proud fellow Villans.

Yep, we know the truth and we should be doing everything possible, as a club, to be making that truth common knowledge.  The club could (and should) be doing a whole lot more to make McGregor and The League's creation part of the Villa brand and image.

The Mancs also believe that the industrial revolution started in Manchester. Even president Obama believes it too. It must be true.

I must admit I enjoyed my tour around the new studios. They're in Salford by the way, just in case you've missed that announcement that the presenters make at every opportunity.  Presumably because their head is still in a spin, what with having to come to terms with relocating from some poky London apartment to a palatial house in Didsbury.

The rules and regulations were probably drawn up by Tony Wilson, Betty Turpin, Mani and Terry Christian in some shithole cotton mill while they were all off their tits on some top-quality gear, you can't deny it.

Jesus Christ was also born in the same building, there's a plaque on the wall to prove it.  The Beatles were from the outskirts of Manchester too.

Manchester has been lying to make friends since records began.
