Villa Park Redevelopment

Not as weird as when there was a house around there.

I found that 'Good Luck' flag a bit Small Heath myself.

I thought it more a play on the fact that geographical location of most of their rival fan base was let us say not all that local to them.

A Blues equivalent would have been profanity laden and focused on Villa too.

Yeah and it's the same bollocks they would peddle, 90% of the genuine mancs I've known were reds.

Exact opposite in my experience. Man City drew their support overwhelmingly from the City. Utd were always boosted by outside support. He’ll, there were,and maybe still are, 30,000 registered Brummie Reds. Shame on them. Old Trafford isn’t even within the City’s boundaries, it’s in Salford.

It’s in Stretford in the Borough of Trafford which is what the flag was aimed at. They all shook my hand that day on the train on the way back to Manchester where I was studying.

As for support city used to have all of South Manchester but North Manchester, Salford, Trafford and Cheshire supported Manchester United historically

How weird does the Trinity/North corner look now.

Will have to did out my 100 Years of VP Book, but wondering how long "somehing" has been there.

Well the Aquarium wall has now gone and that had been there 150 years. I can remember Doug building the corner flag after his hotel idea for that corner fell through.

Lee is saying that 90% of mancs he knows are reds, that's very different to saying 90% of reds are mancs. Lee'll be well aware of the objectionable Brummie Reds. My extremely tiny sample is that I have only known 5 mancs and they have all been reds.

If you live up here the predominant colour is red, the Citeh fans were always there but a bit like Blues in Brum were predominantly in the south and east of the City. The red bit is predominant in the west, south west and north of the city and reaching out all across Cheshire.

My experience when working or studying there for short periods same. Altrincham was uniformly red. Stockport defo blue. Bury and Rochdale Red
