Exactly. We often wind them up with the "No United fans in Manchester" line so we can't moan when they come up with something equally as inaccurate. No-one on either side should really get too upset about it.
For the record, as someone who was born in Manchester but lived in Stockport for a fair chunk of my life before moving back to Manchester, the town is awash with both blues and reds. Many of those City and United fans helped keep Stockport County in business over the years by attending their home Friday night matches.

I must have walked by you at some stage lol.
These Rags are really an odd bunch aren`t they, I was on my Honeymoon in Cornwall when we played Spurs, now my Mrs is a United fan ( a decent one who`s forgotten more about football than most people know) and was happily cheering us on, so there was me , her and there was just the one Spurs fan, next thing, three Rags come in from EXETER all wearing their Rag shirts and started cheering Spurs on, next thing they start coming out with " f*ckin hate the Bitters" and " they`re all from Stockport them tw*ts" in their Cornish accents.
Fair play to my Mrs though, she got up ( a bit p1ssed mind) and told them to shut the f*ck up as they were an embarrassment, generally just tore them apart and then just heckled them for the rest of the match about the sh1t they were spewing, I was just p1ssing myself and left her to it.

When I see a someone wearing a United shirt outside Manchester I automatically think "I bet he's a cnut".
City fans from abroad don't support City for shallow reasons like they do.
