Might be a Yorkshire thing too, since Middleton in Leeds is often referred to as ‘Miggy’ by locals.

The Middleton in Greater Manc gets that as well.

'They' don't.
I’m not making it up. Maybe only some do.
The Manchester Evening News felt it worthy of discussion anyway.

Forget the ‘Manc’ twang commonly associated with the Gallagher brothers; residents told researchers that it is stereotypical and not reflective of the rich tapestry of voices across the region

Orsepickle is definitely a thing, along with lickle etc. It's a working class thing, but somehow not universal even within an area or group of kids at a school say. A family thing to some degree? I've always said 'I'm going to thi ospital' - I'm from Heywood, near Rochdale, so more Lancashire than Manchester. Another thing I remember from some older people when I lived over there was 'pittles' instead of pickles. No idea if that usage is still going or what it was all about, though it feels like an easier way for the tongue and palate to produce the word.The Manchester Evening News felt it worthy of discussion anyway.

The guy I knew who said it was from Failsworth. Pretty sure that one from Moston did also but my memory fades. Manchester is a big place though.

It's something you'd likely hear around Bolton.
Failsworth. Although I don’t know his history. Was someone I was close to when in Leeds for parts of my apprenticeship.

I'll be in Moston on Saturday, watching FC United. If there's a 50/50 ball, I'll try it out: 'fucking 'ell, that was an orsepickle ball!'
I’ve heard of this team. Has links to activism?

Yeah, they were formed as a response to the Glazer's takeover of Man United. Fan owned and they do a fair number of community projects in the area.
The vibe is anti-corporate football. I've only just started going this year, so I'm not sure how much 'political' activism there is, as in antifa and the rest.

I think they do food bank stuff etc but obviously attract activists rather than vice versa. But I don’t know much.

And I know more people who over exaggerate the T that use the CK. I don't think the CK applies to an area first time I heard it was in Wythenshawe but my mates family from Collyhurst all say it.

Though it sometimes has an 'n' in front of it, as in... a nospickle.Ospickle.

I went regularly a few years back and was involved in the running of the club for a bit. Not had much involvement over the last few years though. Some really good people there, some dickheads though, too. It's worth being involved, just as long as you give any mither a swerve.Yeah, they were formed as a response to the Glazer's takeover of Man United.
