| Quote theredshed="theredshed"That's OK thats what these forums are about. What do you actually define as Salford in your 90%? Central Salford or the entire city that covers 37 square miles? The thing is anyone that answers Manchester is technically right because Salford is in Greater Manchester. Probably what I should have said is if 100 people from Salford were abroad on holiday and asked by someone from say Scotland where are you from?, I think 90% would say Manchester. Although I wouldn't be one of them because I always like to give Salford a plug.
Ask people born in Salford where they were born and that would be a completely different answer.'"
I define the full triangular37 square miles as Salford from Blackfriars to cadishead to Little Hulton, And the people who answer Manchester are indeed technically VERY wrong as Salford isn't in the city of Manchester but in the county of Greater Manchester. |

Really
I was under the impression Salford / Manchester was part of " the old Lancashire boundry " and now we've inherited the Greater Manchester tag. |

 I didn't say Salford was in the city of Manchester, why would anybody think that one city can be in another city? If you read my post I said Salford is in Greater Manchester. 'Greater Manchester' being the 'metropolitan county' and not the city.
Quote Philyourboots="GT"Lancashire.'"
Lancashire is a non-metropolitan county and Greater Manchester is a metropolitan county. |

Greater Manchester was created for administrative purposes. The old county boundaries were never changed. |

Would never follow a Manchester RL club . Salford is more than a name its a badge of pride and identity for the city

Fair enough so TheRedshed's comment regarding people from Salford referring to being from Manchester are indeed technically wrong then.....
It doesn't really bother me which county we belong too however it does bother me when people born in Salford answer to being from Manchester regardless of whether we have a city centre or not.

How can it be wrong for someone born in Greater Manchester to say they are from Manchester? Manchester just being a general answer that is not specific to city or county.
Would it be wrong for people born in Greater London to say they are from London? |

Because Greater Manchester is not the same as Manchester. That would mean it would be OK for people from Oldham, Rochdale, Wigan, Bolton and so on to say they're from Manchester. They're not and I doubt they'd ever claim to be. |

I'd rather put hot pins in my eyes than change our name. I certainly wouldn't support a Manchester team!

What are you lot on about?
It’s a hypothetical situation brought about by a misunderstanding!
We just love to argue about anything on this site and we all need to grow up!
As I can’t see that happening any time soon so I want in.
No one wants it to change to Manchester, but if it did, would people stop going or fall out of love with the club? You’re a fickle lot.
Oh and Lancashire.

That's a very ironic post considering the tone of it. |
