Sorry mate, but I am not sure the brewery is worth saving; an ugly building with no merit. And the beer is certainly not in my personal top ten in the UK:

Brakspears
Bombardier
London Pride
Flowers
Old Thumper (Hampshire)
Davy's old Wallop (London)
Ma Parlow's (Dudley)
Tetleys
Spitfire
Black Sheep (Yorkshire)

So if the Mancunians themselves cannot even agree to put their own support behind Boddies, as opposed to Robbies, why would the rest of the country, with better beers at their disposal, lift a finger?
