Manchester is definitely in the southern half of Britain. :lol:

Manchester used to be in Northumbria. The border between the glorious cradle of Christianity & civilisation in these islands and the ignorant heathen yam yam pig fuckers of Mercia was the River Mersey which skirts Manchester’s southern flank, illustrated by the fact that the closest football club to the Mersey is Stockport County FC :cuppa:

You can wind the fuck out of a Manc (and a Scouser for that matter) by pointing out they're from the West of England, not the North. They argue until such time you point out it takes no longer to get from Manchester to London as it does from Manchester to Newcastle and that there's a further hour or so after each location to the national border.

Just ask them what they call a bread bun, then look at them with disgust when they come out with gibberish like “barm” or “cob”. 
 

My absolute refusal to accept their fucked up bread nomenclature used to have them spitting blood :lol:

We’re all Saxons round our way chief :)

 

“MOREBATTLE and MOW, a parish in the district of Kelso, county of Roxburgh; 7½ miles (S. S. E.) from Kelso. The name of Morebattle is supposed to have been derived from the SAXON words Mere, "a marsh," and Botl, "a hamlet," descriptive of its state in former times, when it seems to have been to a considerable extent under water. “

Aye, Jarrow and Monkwearmouth were the principle settlements south of the Tyne, Durham obviously dominated the Wear  valley….Sunderland was basically a few fisherman’s huts on Roker beach until about 1800…
