That Tony Wilson (Documentary 2002)

One man's quest to transform a post industrial behemoth ,still ravaged by the aftershock of WW2,into a world cultural capital.Pretentious,of course , loved and hated in equal measure undoubtedly.His place in history is assured.

It was a great loss when tony passed away. Im so glad i got to see him in the early/mid 2000s at an hacienda reunion at Manchester academy. He was djing dance tune then dropped the beachboys track, god only knows. What a legend!

First memory of Tony was him presenting Granada Reports whilst flicking a green Pentel pen in his fingers.

Got to love him though rip tony

Manchester owes him a lot!!

[@campbellgraham1979]

Thanks for the upload, that was great. He really was one of a kind. I’m from Liverpool but always loved him.

[@iandarlington3401]

He certainly did not endear himself to the average scouser,that's for sure.However,he always had the midas touch when it came to seeing the future.Which, in my opinion benefited the entire North West region and beyond.Up there with John Peel,Janice Long and Radcliffe/Riley as our region's innovative influencers.

Tony was a bit like his beloved United...Hated, Adored but never Ignored !
