    Stockport is actually part of Cheshire
  • @Againsttherunofplayy
    Good video, hate to admit it as I have a strong hatred for Bolton but they are definitely the big club out of the 6
  • @historyoffootball87
    Bolton are the biggest for me. They can be a bit touchy though with where they are located as when I did my Burnden Park video I said that Bolton were in Greater Manchester and a few comments said "We are not in Greater Manchester!!".

    Stockport County fan here, if you re ran the test again County would jump up the rankings with avergae crowds now around 9,000 and 90% of capacity. Hopefully a title at the end of the season as eell.

    Bolton Wigan County and Tics level Dale and Bury level I don't think many will disagree with that.

    Never a doubt about the winner but a few categories are unfair to Wigan who have only been the league for 46 years (Bolton - 136, Bury - 130, Stockport - 124, Oldham - 117, Rochdale - 103) and crowd wise have to compete with an very successful rugby team. Although from different codes they hate each other with a passion and the rugby club managed to close or nullify four football clubs before Wigan Athletic were formed

    What an absurd name for a newly created administrative county the government created in 1974 and much to the annoyance of proud lancastrians and the Cheshire folk with the towns of Bolton and Wigan not even sharing a boundary with Manchester and imagine the uproar in Bradford if West Yorkshire had been named Greater Leeds or the folk in Wolverhampton if the West Midlands had been named Greater Birmingham.

    i was born in Lancashire and not changed because some politician said so, coywm

    Stockport fan here. Bolton, Yes, Wigan..MMM recent history to do with Dave Whelan. Oldham, Bury and County all similar. Rochdale are the smallest. Good vid and good parameters!
  • @roberthellon493
    Oldham fan here think you got it about right. Although Oldham and Stockport could be much bigger and will probably rival the plastic latics eventually.
  • @peterparkerspizzaface6431
    Bolton are bigger than the rest of the Greater Manchester clubs combined. 4 FA Cups, 73 years in the top flight. Average attendance of 21,000 in league 1 this season. Massive football club.
  • @laticrourke3173
    Bigger club... Bolton. Yet it's been 10 years since they've actually beaten us (Wigan). So at somepoint it'll change to us!
  • @StevenSmethurst
    I love how this innocent video about football started a debate on what borough the towns fall under. Im very much of the opinion that Bolton is of Lancashire but jeez, for the sake of the video its easier to just clump all the towns together as greater manchester rather than saying biggest team in the towns within a 10 mile radius of manchester the videos name gets a bit on the long side then😂
