      the northern quarter is a bit studenty and arty farty to be honest but theres a good bar just of tib st called cord, you should go in there for a beer. Its very chilled on the northern quarter though.
      I dont drink so i am not into bars and stuff, was more an old skool raver back in the day lol. Once u stop doing that, sitting in bars just dont have the same attraction.
      You'll have a good time, people will think your a united fan though if u have a ****ney accent

        lol, I'm a Chelsea fan so I'm sure that doesn't go down well either.

        All though what are Man City these days but a watered down version of Chelsea.

          One fight that the media got on the back off like never before in UK history and you think the UK is the boxing hotspot of the world ,,,, your dreaming ,why do you poms play we are the best bull**** all the time , when you are clearly not , this whole we a Brit attitude is so lame .
          America does those numbers on big fights year after year after year .

          Hatton = Great public personality
          Non boxing public will like his fighting style
          Great story with a hero and facing gigantic task in Floyd the villian

          Thats what sold mate , the media made Hatton and it wont happen again because its been done now and the Brits got nailed in the ass , even Cal Bhop wont get near it as that wont grab the man in the street like this one fight did .

          America is the mecca of world boxing and always will be .

              Of course America is the Mecca of boxing, surely he isn't insisting that Britain is. When was the last super fight that involved two British fighters?

                im going to have to agree, hatton has got to be one of the biggest UK attractions ever and the PPV buys show it, but the thing is, he had to do those numbers fighting another high profile american, when 2 americans put on that media blitz, it was the biggest fight ever, and rod is right, this likely wont happen again in the UK for a long time, you need another personable guy like hatton, and another supreme ******* who holds the crown like mayweather, its hard to repeat that atmosphere.

                  what a bit like Calzaghe/Hopkins?......this fight will do very well. Brits are so competitive despite us being serial losers in general, people will tune in in droves to watch Calz spank Hopkins. I'd assume it would be on setanta ppv attracting around half as much as hatton is what 400k buys? in Britain alone

                      Actually I found it, and it was on the 2nd page, which is why I didn't see it. You're an idiot then for missing the last post where I've just acknowledged that. Calm down..
