    The ground is in one of the boroughs that make up Greater Manchester, that Borough is Trafford. Salford is a separate borough. D/t is right though as Salford is mainly reds. Manchester Evening News did a survey to see which area of the City were red and which were blue. Surprisingly to some there are more reds in Manchester than blues. Of course the mainly blue areas were places going out towards the Stockport area

    Isn't that because Man City fans are all based Stockport way?

    Only reason I asked the question was because I was sure I read something said more United fans were from Manchester than Citeh

    Yeah a lot of Citeh fans are from areas like Gorton and Denton which are heading out towards Stockport. The MEN poll showed that Manchester was predominately red.

    Most man united fans live in the far east.

    The surveys were done on people attending games not on overall 'fan' base

    Of course they do. And London, Ireland, and America.

    Bound to happen when you outnumber your rivals popularity worldwide by about 100 to 1 (probably a lot more to be honest)

    Interestingly Leeds have the highest percentage of 'out of town' supporters...
