If you ever wondered which of the two Manchester teams was the most popular in their own city a quick look at the team shirt sales should be enough to answer the question.
The findings however are rather embarrassing for Manchester City and show just how far the club lags behind Manchester United commercially with a whopping 95% of all shirts sold in Manchester being United.
It just goes to show that despite spending hundreds of millions of pounds and winning the Premiership title City still has a long way to go before they can claim to be as popular as their cross town rivals.
Perhaps City needs to start a local PR campaign and maybe give away those empty seats we see at the Etihad during Champions League games.
