Generally speaking, Greater Manchester is hard to read because we're talking about towns with separate identities and social structures. So, rather than each being a relatively easily-classifiable suburb, the towns have suburbs of their own with significant socio-economic differences between them. Nor can we be wholly sure who is answering the survey or whether they attend matches. But I'm guessing two things from the map and the way football is now watched. Pretty sure I remember reading that the map was based on sales of season tickets. Edit - James' link says it was cooked up, sorry compiled, by journalists at the Manchester Evening News. Having had the dubious pleasure of reading that rag for a couple of years, my hunch is that it is likely to be of limited authenticity ;D

It was done via an online pool in an "entirely unscientific" manner, so yeah, could be described as dubious
