The article has a map of where BNO immigrants moved to, based on National Insurance number registrations. The Manchester area seems particularly popular, not sure if because football.

Also, TIL that Salford is in Manchester. I must admit my knowledge of UK geography remains crap despite having lived here for over a year.

Salford City (EFL League Two team) is literally owned by the class of '92 lol

Don't know about that. Vaguely aware that Man. U and City exist, but don't really follow football, and definitely not at the lower league levels, LOL.

I see that Manchester has a metro system, which must be attractive to HKers. The busses in my "city" are crap.

I wouldn't call it a Metro, it is a light rail. Manchester Metrolink
