Dey doo dat down't dey?
Actually, no, my friend. I have always suspected that it is London that benefits most from this Manchester/Liverpool thing. Whilst I love my Ship Canal 'theory' and the 'Calm Down' song we sing when playing Liverpool, in particular, the rest of the 'jokes' are simply not funny and are equally reflected by scousers who view some parts of Manchester as the third world.
More amusing is the scouse obsession with romanticism born of living by the sea, whereas Mancunian commerce is often seen in Liverpool as mean spirited and bullying. You take your pick as it's more than my life's worth to take sides, Ancoats born as I am!
