mancunian way

Was the take that song really about manchester? Im thinking about going to an owl city gig in manchester and just looked on the maps, and the nearest main road is mancunian way!

Well Mancunian means relating to Manchester and Mancunian Way is a very well known road in Manchester. And given that Take That are from Manchester I think it's very likely that if they had written a song called Mancunian Way it would be about Manchester.
Anyway, you know Manchester pretty well don't you with a familiy in Bury?

Molly the Mancunian Way has motorway restrictions with a speed limit of 50mph.The nearest main road is Wilmslow road or Oxford road
Wilmslow road changes its name to Oxford road near to were the gig is being held.

I went down Mancunian Way earlier, it's a main route into the city.

The main road the Academy is on is Oxford Road (it changes to Wilmslow Road a bit further up away from town). I go passed it everyday.

Take That are referred to as a Manchester band although Gary is actually from Frodsham and Mark is from Oldham so only the other two are proper mancunians. I'm not a mad Take That fan though a friend of mine is and the information seeps in and I used to work with Howard's sister.

That's like saying you didn;t realise the Beatles are from Liverpool, even for a 16 year old
