Manchester Metro News

The Manchester Metro News was a British weekly newspaper published each Friday by Reach plc.

These days the paper also has a 12-page supplement called Metromagazine and a total circulation of 308,589 in the south Manchester area (VFD July to Dec 2004).

Most of the content of the paper is the same for all three editions, but a few pages differ, with more local advertising and editorial.

In February 2010 along with the Guardian Media Group's other regional and local titles, the newspaper was sold to competitor Trinity Mirror plc.

He was succeeded by Robert Ridley, now assistant editor of the Manchester Evening News, who edited the newspaper until 1998.
