Mancs get 'rinsed' an Soccer am
I promised I wouldn't post anything else from YouTube but this is everything about Manchester that you ever needed to know.

God - in creating Man - somewhat over-estimated his own ability.
As little or as much as I like.
Waiting For The Sun. Viva La Revolution Morrissey - Irish Blood English Heart Growing Old Gracefully (Like Hell I Will) Beyond The Blue Nile Bridget Bardot Bridge At Bordeaux Whatever Happened To Jimmy Webb ? Entente Cordiale Infidels - And The I Street Shuffle.

I am assuming that was a skit? I didn't understand a word he said either.
Yes - it's a skit but an uncannily accurate one.
Do you remember a band called The Stone Roses ? They came from Manchester and their lead singer is the legendary (for all the wrong reasons!) Ian Brown.
This is a near perfect piss-take of his "King Monkey" routine.
Manchester is probably my second favourite city in the UK and I spend a lot of time there.
And if you have trouble understanding these guys then we'll have to move on to Liverpool, Newcastle and Glasgow.
You'll be totally screwed then !

The Stone Roses don't ring a bell but now I am reminded of the New York Dolls' "Dance Like a Monkey".
The guy in your clip mixed in a little Mick there too eh?
I have a friend that is a very proper English gentleman and I am forever having to remind him to speak American.
I'm a "very proper English gentlemen" I'll have you know !
And I can't understand why the Americans have struggled so hard to mangle the English language into a mish-mash of incomprehensible gobbledegook.
On the other hand it's probably a good thing that we can't understand a single word that most of your politicians are saying. It gives us an excuse to ignore them !
