Before the rise of Man Utd in the early 1990s, which was the preferred club to support in Greater Manchester?

Question by Andre Pettersson: Before the rise of Man Utd in the early 1990s, which was the preferred club to support in Greater Manchester? The sustained success of the Red Devils really took off around 1992 with the advent of the new EPL, but before that time and still in the era of first division / domestic dominance by both Merseyside clubs in the late 1980s, was either Manchester United or Manchester City the most popular club of choice by the Mancunians? In addition, are most present day Man Utd and Man City supporters (whether local, further afield or global) pre or post 1992? Put another way, which was the most successful club in Greater Manchester during Liverpool and Everton's high times and days of domestic and European glory? Best answer:
