Grade A+ twat for me and that's without his rag allegiance.
He was from Ordsall in SALFORD he was not a Mancunian so the whole Mr Manchester thing for me was and always will be utter shite. A gobshite chancer who got lucky with the exploding Manchester music scene.
John Robb has actually come out and said that Wilson never made the actual we do things differently here quote too.
Rant over.

Well half those named in the thread weren't "Mancs". Alan Turing came here to work at the University!
Wilson could have buggered off to London to further his TV career but didn't and he championed Manchester and the north west instead. Whether or not he got lucky by chance, the legacy left behind of the Hacienda and Factory records has put Manchester on the musical map of the world.

I get that half of them weren't Mancs. Apologies, that's not what I meant.
Every time he came on the telly I just wanted to boot it in. Smarmy ****.
He thought he was David Watts I suppose we all knew one.
Not for me - agree to disagree - it speaks volumes though that the other opinion divider Steve Coogan played him in the film!
Mind you at the time he was on Granada Reports that other thundercunt Bob Greaves was too.
