Exactly like Hulme, where I grew up.
My dads from Hulme, luckily we moved to a posh estate in M22

Don't know how far back you go but before the container they had a shop, at the end nearest the pub, cant remember why they changed to the container. Do you remember the woman who ran it back in the 80s, really good sort she was, attractive too, black curly hair.
Ah right, makes sense. I used to run the car spares shop at the far end, between the Offy and the butchers, never had any real hassle.They changed to the container when punters from the Greenwood started taking films out from the video shop when it was shut. Try getting into a container pissed, nightmare.
I remember playing Coventry on a Sunday in the 80s, it was a daft kick off time, morning if i recall think we drew 2-2. Went on the special and it broke down so got in the ground late. West Midlands police always enjoyed getting stuck in.
It's only one fella talking it down mate, the rest of us know full well there's good and bad everywhere.as a child of the moss i do not believe some of the stuff on here. the moss was a great place to grow up and as you got older the big weston pub was my home.and all the shebeens as we called them in those days. rudis at the park gates. the nile shakumo at brookses bar and maany others were great. i am proud to say i am from moss side and always will be.
Remember going to Barnsley in the 80’s when train hit a horse I think. We got there well into the game and it must have looked like Zulu when 400 lads were legging it down the hill towards the ground. 0-0 draw too!
Now there would be trouble:)
