Oops!

My bad.

Trafford, Salford it's all the same thing to me. Where ever they're based I'm pretty sure it's on the outskirts of Manchester.

Isn't there a road sign outside the swamp that reads: "Manchester 1 mile"

Anyway one thing we can all agree on is that they are SCUM and especially this FA cup weekend, significantly irrelevant.

Wasn’t the boundary changed a few years ago, which meant that the swamp was actually in Salford.

The rags being the rags, complained, and it was swiftly changed back.

I’m sure there are more knowledgeable people on here, who can either confirm or deny it.

No.
No.
Oh and heres another one for good measure, NO.
The swamp was in Lancashire. Salford is/was a City in its own right. Manchester is a mile or so from the old Lancashire border.
In 1974 the government changed the political map. Lancashire lost a huge area and Trafford was created as a result. The swamp 'moved' from Lancashire to Trafford and became part of Greater Manchester.

Salford stayed exactly where it was as did Manchester.
The area called Old Trafford has never been in Salford nor Manchester.

One stat I do like is the train station (later the tram) nearest the ground was called Warwick Road. The next station along was called Old Trafford.
This confused their tourist fans so much and they all were getting off at the wrong stop.
Because of all the complaints, the powers that be changed Warwick Road to Old Trafford and the other to Trafford Bar.

Thanks.

I stand corrected.
 
There is an awful amount of Man United fans who fully agree with him. Legit the only places where I've seen Man United fans being outraged was Reddit, but Reddit is mostly American.

I know the players won't say anything, but its kinda awkward for players like Amad to play for a club when the guy who pays you considers you as a coloniser.
 
Come on guys
Dispite mods saying take political posts to the political threads this thread is loaded with political comments.
Rags are SCUM and always will be.
The CITY is BLUE and always will be.
Mind the gap RED SCUM.
 I can't find their result or fixture for this weekend am I loosing my mind ?

Redcafe is quickly trying to keep a lid on that but yes, lots coming out of the woodwork.
