Gorton and DentonFor reference, Gorton and Denton is one of the poorer areas of Manchester. Like Goodwin, I’ve never lived or worked in Gorton and Denton. I used to live in Withington, but was eventually priced out of the area as Manchester became more expensive (it was probably more normal when Goodwin worked there). To be fair to Goodwin, it’s not wrong for him to say he’s a Manchester lad. Goodwin’s grandad might have worked in a ‘steel’ mill, but that doesn’t mean Goodwin gets to ‘steal’ working class valour.
