They probably do, Roy, but, then again, they probably sell more pies in Manchester than they do in both the other towns combined. However, I wouldn't expect to see Wayne Rooney and co advertising their wares. And it's not just about sales, it's about supporting institutions in your own home town. Let's face it, our local football club face a hard enough battle to raise the finances to operate at a professional level - I'm sure one of the town's leading companies could have helped them by sponsoring them (as indeed they have in the past), rather than a club in a town six miles down the road...or is it just my hopelessly outdated ideas about local loyalty?
