Guess this means Hunslet isn't in Leeds or Fev in Wakefield

There's Only One F in Wakefield

Now I know your the kid who doesn't give up or at least takes his ball home when he's had enough, but to say the City of Salford is in Manchester is just utter nonsense and total claptrap .

Salford is a major UK city which homes giants of industry like the BBC and ITV . It's a city with it's own Cathedral and University. So please don't ever say Salford is in Manchester.

The City of Salford has borders with the City of Manchester that's where it ends.


To anyone outside of Salford... Salford is just part of Manchester. Sorry to break it to you. Manchester United even play in Salford, or is Trafford its own city as well?

How is this even an argument? Salford isn't in Manchester, that is just simply a fact. The city of Salford and the city of Manchester are separate cities. They might both be in the Greater Manchester administrative area but saying Salford is in Manchester is like saying St Helens is in Liverpool.

Also, Manchester United don't play in Salford and Trafford isn't a city. United play in Old Trafford, which is in the town of Stretford, which is in the borough of Trafford, not the city of Manchester or the city of Salford.

No. They play in Trafford. Which is not in Salford.
Salford and Manchester are two cities within the metropolitan county of Greater Manchester.
Like Leeds, Bradford and Wakefield are cities within the metropolitan county of West Yorkshire.
Is Wakefield in Leeds?

Behave - Salford is about 2.5 miles from Manchester City Centre!


Why should I behave I live in Salford and work in Manchester and what I have posted is correct, they are two separate places that are next to each other and share a boundary at the City centre where the River Irwell divides the two cities? You can't even get that right two and a half miles, the river isn't that wide, or were you thinking of something specifically in either Salford, or neighbouring Manchester when you got your pedometer out, say the distance between Salford University and Manchester University?

What I find mildly amusing is most of the 'experts' on here appear to be from West Yorkshire and they, you included, obviously don't know what you are on about
