I only ever saw one shooting in Moss side late 80s. We used to park on Princess Rd opposite Alexandra park. Getting back in the car after a game when we heard “Bang Bang” and then the Olympic 100m sprint came running out of the park and up one of the side streets followed by a kid on a BMX with a revolver style hand gun.So Moss Side wasn’t where many gangs were based? There were shootings galore at one point. I’d not want to raise a family in that kind of environment.
So don't......I lived in Moss Side during the Gooch Close stuff early 90's......I'm still here never got shot.So Moss Side wasn’t where many gangs were based? There were shootings galore at one point. I’d not want to raise a family in that kind of environment.

Loads of sound lads in Moss Side.....loads of scumbags. Just like anywhere. London isn't such a great place to live either. Everywhere has its own problems.
Let's face it you just jump on any chance to slag Manchester or Mancs off. Not sure why to be honest.
Crack on....we aint arsed.
same could be said for other areas of greater Manchester tbh
summat not right about you ;)The hasty and defensive replies indicate that you are “arsed”, don’t they?
Moss Side was single handedly the worst area of Manchester for gun crime. Do you not value lives? It was notorious.
Nobody I knew had any intention to go there were it not for Maine Road. People should be proud to live in safe areas where good values are held.
Did you go Sheff Utd away with London branch about 85? Train got in about 1pm and there were about 3 lads between 17 and 30. The rest seemed like families or older blokes. Soon as you come out of station there is a pub on corner with their lot watching whose arrived. Copper sent us down one road towards ground, whilst watching about 30 of them head off downthe road next to, it to cut us off. Almost as both roads meet we saw Sheff utd and everyone ran. We could then see the ground and there were some Blues in the distance. Me and another Blue slowed down and he turned and asked them to come on then. Some jumping about but they went back to the pub. Maybe it was cos we werent a crew, or cos it was now closer to the ground im not sure.
Cheetham Hill and Longsight to name but two areasIt really couldn’t.
You see what you want to see through tunnel vision pal. Fuck knows why you claim to be a blue yet constantly slag Manchester and mancs off.It really couldn’t.
