    No it wasn't, but a few people have mentioned I have a face for radio.

    Ha!

    Unfortunately not me. I always get annoyed when I refer to City as City and people assume I'm talking about MCFC when they know i support BCAFC.

    My route back home, from home games, takes me across Manchester (between Victoria & Piccadilly stations). Wearing my City colours I regularly get asked how 'City' have got on; it seems most Mancunians are happy to refer to us as 'City', when its clear (because of the colours) which City they are talking about.

    I tend to find Manchester far better than Stafford, where people tend to refer to us as 'Bradford'.

    I hate Bradford. I'm too young to know of the Bradford PA rivalry but it just doesn't sound right .

    It is a gentle walk. I just follow the tram tracks up the hill, crossing Shude Hill and you are soon in Piccadilly gardens. The Marble Arch, is a great detour off the bottom of Rochdale Road.

    I have to question his understanding of spreadsheets, tables, and data in general.

    Yes Jon, and any football credibility he may have had may well be truly shot now :)

    Although to be fair he doesn't profess to be a football expert but I'll take any positive no matter how small and whoever it comes from

    Got to credit Edin for the great rep we are getting as a club out there even in non-football circles.

    Perhaps @Ashton Bantam@Ashton Bantam ? Some people in Thameside would ignore the existence of Ashton under Lyne as a separate identity!

    Tram ticket is included in price of train ticket if journey includes transfer from Victoria to Piccadilly, and there is also a free linking bus between the stations.

    Indeed. Hopefully, from December 2018 (although it might be delayed to 2019) Northern services will be extended through to Piccadilly. For a short whiles they were running services to/from Oxford Road, but these have been temporarily suspended, due to their rolling stock shortages.

    Once, the new services are up and running it should be a straightforward single change at Piccadilly.
