I’ve never understood these extreme Manc accents.

Liam Gallagher is the same. The guy grew up in Burnage ffs, which isn’t even really rough, and has spent his entire adult life living in posh London suburbs.

Nobody from Manchester sounds like that.

There’s a Manchester poet called Mike Garry who - while his poetry really is wonderful - puts on the same swaggery Manc comedy voice when he performs.

Soccer AM were bang on with the ‘Stereotypical Manc’ sketch!

I take it you weren't brought up in Burnage. It was a sprawling council estate and there were plenty of real hard cases around - and loads of blues.

It was never a slum though. There are far worse areas In Manchester. I think that’s his point.

Burnage had about 65% council housing 35% private housing when the Gallaghers were there. They went to the same Primary school as my offspring.

Werent they brought in longsight initially anyway ?

When I went to Burnage Grammar in the 60s it was a very desirable middle class suburb.
Now of course it is an utter shithole that you drive through with car doors locked.

Burnage, bordered by Didsbury, Withington and Heaton Moor.
It's scruffy in parts for sure, but it's a leap of fantasy to describe it as a ghetto/slum.

I don't think Liam's accent is anywhere near as extreme as that wanker Terry Christian's. That's as put on an accent as you're ever going to get IMO.

Fuck me; I can't wait to revisit my old Burnage paradise.
I'll try to put on my best Liam/Terry Christian accent if I need to duck for cover.
