Horwich is about 10 miles away and is in Lancashire, Leigh on the other hand is in Greater Manchester although many like myself no matter how long it is will never say we live in Greater Manchester, I always put Lancashire on my address and will never change just because some politician thinks I live in Greater Manchester.

I have no idea. I do know that Gordon Brown supports a team in Scotland. I hope you can tell me which it is, because I can't think of it atm.

That would annoy me too. People get attached to their local identity.

Of course Americanise (-ize) is a word. It means to make something or become American in character.

No, and I found it as well. It's Raith Rovers.

bababui · 10-19-2006, 06:45 AM

Maybe we Americans can do to Manchester what they did to Bolton.

Blair says he's a life long Newcastle fan but read somewhere he supported someone else before them.

Thought there was a word but knew the spelling was out it didn't look right.

Off the top of my head knew it wasn't any of the big clubs ie Celtic, Rangers, Hibs, Aberdeen, Hearts and such, be honest I thought it was Partick but no idea why.

Have you ever considered being a real fan? You have some good choices in your area.

Americanize (or Americanization). Americanize is the correct answer. Nice try, and thanks for playing. There will be some parting gifts for you.
