Manchester is becoming gentrified and it’s part of the reason I can’t see myself living there again. I first went out in town as a student and my circle were from Newton Heath, Failsworth and Levenshulme. Not one remains in Manchester.
In my last office job I’d say 50% weren’t local whilst almost everyone was at CIS back in 2005.
K.nell, that is dire, whoever thought that was ok, wants sacking, if I thought I sounded like that, I would have a pad and pen. ( west gorton st marks )Cheers for the link(I looked). As already said, he sounds like a black manc. Anyone heard themselves on an answering machine?
Pretty sure he's always spoke this way. Is he faking or not?It’s a white rapper from Harpurhey called Shotty Horroh.
I think my accent was softened from 5 years in Wales, 2 in Norwich & Plymouth and then 6 years in China. I feel proper proud when someone says, "you're from Manchester" or "you're a Manc".
I get “posh” which is laughable when I grew up with nothing.
This is the embarrassingly cringeworthy video that was rammed down our throats pre-game until this season. It's a small part of the contrived 'match day experience' bollocks. I fuckin' hate our club trying to sell plastics the brand. It makes us look like ****s I think. And we still have to suffer hearing that proper **** Hugh Ferretface waffle HT shite in the stadium.
Sorry, rant over: /

My clothes identify me immediately as not posh. Plus, I'm never far from a City shirt or badge.
I actually disagree with that. It’s a working class trait to dress up and I know wealthy people who dress down.
Never gave it any thought. City watch, shorts or shirt as and when possible, is the only dress codeI have ever followed. I always look at my shorts with a torn pocket and think about stiching them up. Three years of that. As for trousers, I have similar wears and tears but I've yet to think on that. What exactly is a tie?
I just wear whatever the charity shop has in my size, saves having to think about it.I'm working class scum and dress like a scruffy twat.......can't afford Stone Island
Last time I saw you those high heels looked a size or two too small. And get a bigger bra mate, your hairy moobs poking out put me off my pint; )I just wear whatever the charity shop has in my size, saves having to think about it.
That’s not what you said at the end of the night in the grey horse.Last time I saw you those high heels looked a size or two too small. And get a bigger bra mate, your hairy moobs poking out put me off my pint; )
You could say anything mate and I couldn't disagree, especially when @Bigg Bigg Blue has put a Mickey Finn in my pint.That’s not what you said at the end of the night in the grey horse.
He paid for a Mickey, first time for everything I suppose,You could say anything mate and I couldn't disagree, especially when @Bigg Bigg Blue has put a Mickey Finn in my pint.
That’s not quite what I mean. When I was a kid, everyone was in designer trainers and tops yet nobody had any money. It seemed more important to own Fred Perry (Fled Pelleh) than a big house.
