It was always shown as Man U in the football results in the papers in the 70s and that became Man Yoo especially by the plastic brigade.
It was so common l think that there was indeed a directive to have it used in full as Manchester especially as it goes against the trend to abbreviate anything and everything else.
I wish City used Manchester in full on the website.

I've noticed that the MEN calls the rags, "Manchester *n*t*d, us, Man City.

I’d get the little Lego workmen on site, then I’d knock it down, and use all the bricks to build a supermarket.

One can never have enough supermarkets!

We have just had a Lego type supermarket available at Countdown supermarkets in NZ for every $20 purchases.
I've packed up my sets and posted them off to the Theatre of Crap, Trafford.
Should be enough bricks there for a decent sized stadium.

It was always just City and United in the MUEN until the internet made the paper's website read around the world.
I read somewhere that the rags using 'Manchester' all the time is a device to put them at the top of all Internet searches with Manchester in them including searches for things like Manchester Airport, City Council and even for us. Its a bit niggling especially as they are not in Manchester.
They should be top search item if you type in the word 'shite'.
 
With the world cup later this year it'll be interesting to see how many of their duds will be selected for England. Personally I think none of them deserve to be anywhere near being considered for selection.

When was the last time an England squad at a major tournament didn’t have a united player?

This allegedly is what the rags push. That way when a stranger is googling something Manchester University, airport, etc Manchester un***d comes up as one of the first suggestions. It's basically product placement.

Edit just seen @Bonzo Nododo post.
Great minds and all that

Probably never, but this current crop are absolutely shite with zero form so it'll be interesting to see the squad when they play their next game.
