    I know Giggs was born in Cardiff but he was raised in Salford and sounds like a local.
    Shaun Ryder is a good shout - Little Hulton lad, so right at the north end of Salford.
    Bez is the same as Ryan, moving to Salford as a lad.

    I'm surprised there's not been much about the gangs of Salford - potential reference to Ordsall estate, etc. Talking of which, Perry Boys is a great read. That said, they probably accept that southerners are clueless about the difference between Salford and Manchester and as long as the accents are northern but neither scouse nor Geordie then they'll get away with it.

      Sean Ryder was sick on my mate in the Hycienda. There was an all night cafe just around the corner called Jeruselem, scary place after the clubs kicked out with party goers and various ne'er-do-wells. Another club just down the road used to sell drugs from the cafe bar, casual as anything. Crazy times.

            Yes.

            I was once one.
