This is crazy shiz yeah, you close down Afflecks you close down like 3/4's of the teenage community in Manchester and sooner or later some absolute jocky who wanted to change this place into flats will start complaining about too many kids in Manchester, well then if we had Afflecks we wouldn't be on the streets drinking alcohol and getting off our faces through boredom cos we'd have a place to go. If it's not one it's the other so choose wisely. Also there is gonna be a protest. Trust me, I'm like a mental doctor...
How can you close afflecks???? So many people travel into mancs primarily to go to afflecks and It provides so many people with work.Most importantly - its a truly unique part of the centre of manchester....think about this.
Afflects is a huge part of manchester culture. Its like knocking down the town hall.. it wouldnt happen!
So dont knock it down as it means so much to so many!!

lmao this is crazy, why the fuck would they close afflecks its amazing!!! so many people go and its one of those places you wont find anywhere else... it's part of manchesters culture aswell!!! boo to those who are shutting it down!!! x GO AFFLECKS!!!
Afflecks has to stay open because its the most decent place for unique people to go and be themselves with no one judging them.
I love it, my friend loves it THEREFORE KEEP IT OPEN. i live in brum and have to come to Manchester once in a while and need to go to afflecks.
CANNOT HAPPEN!!!

KEEP AFFLECKS OPPEN, or you will get bombed!!
afflecks is one of the bestest places you can be yourself, and express yourself through the things they sell!
the world need individuality, ad afflcks helps contribute to this SO KEEP IT OPEN!
It would be a huge loss to manchester to shut down afflecks palace. Its the main reason why i go to Mnachester, there is no other place anywhere like it. Its somewhere where all differnt people and all different cultures can go to just to hang out and buy things. There are flats everywhere anyway and aflecks gets so much buisness. Its pathetic.
Afflecks is an amazign starting place for so many small individual businesses. Its one of the only shops anybody can find something they like. SAVE AFFLECKS!!!
you can't close afflecks, its total madness even suggesting it, hey where else are us "dirtymoshers" supposed to go? it makes a huge part of manchester you can't get rid of it....
you really cant close this place ! its something to be proud of and im sick of seeing flats everywhere i want to know who is living in them all theres more than enough!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOO.
Right guys...this is serious....you cannot atchually close Afflex Palace...Afflex is like the focal point of like...a third of the youths social life!!! We like...go there all the time and buy almost everything we OWN!!!....
Pease...to the people who are in charge...maybe you're closing it down because your're not making enough profit or otherwise...but PEASE...we will all continue to buy stuff from the shop!!! =[...Think about what iv said...on behalf of everyone in and around Manchester. xxxxxxxx
this is sacraligious,who the hell do these fat cat developers think they are? Afflecks is as important to the vibe that is manchester as the opera house is to Sydney...leave it alone and let the creativity thrive man.
DO NOT CLOSE THIS PLACE DOWN, the most awesome, amazing, most perfect, holy place on this earth, it would greatly damage the youth culture of manchester!
dont close afflecks-like it says major blow to the clutural heart of manchester-and its so unique-u can go to london,birmigham anywhere-and never find sumwhere like afflecks-its just gt manchester written all over it-its sucha cool place !pleasee dont close it
Although i no longer go to Afflex, i used to spend hours on a saturday there, just looking through everything. It would be a huge loss to Manchesters alternative scene if Afflex (like collosium) were to shut. IT might be over pirced in there. but people need to make money because of the increasing rent on stall holders. Also Colin from the studio dances like nobodys buisness. And where else would i get free roach material (Y)
im getting loads of people on thios because i know so many people that go to afflecks, it should stay open its not hurting anyone, and it made me who i am! its one of the few places id class as sane! KEEP IT OPEN!
WHY!? HOW!?
how can you think of closing aflecks.
soooo many people go there. its the only place (apart form urbis but thats outside and cold)thats a place for kids like us. Chavs dont go there. Its our heaven. =[. Please dont close it. Think it throught for the kids yh =]
Afflecks is the main reason I became who I am now. I realised there was more than being a scally and saw the brilliant vibe in afflecks. It's what makes manchester better than the other cities.
Besides Manchesters got enough flats thanks!
AFFLECKS IS THE BEST AND CANT, SHOULDNT CLOSE! it means alot to me and my mate and alot of people so it shouldnt close! manchester need alternative people not flats or offices or whatever they plan on making afflecks!
AFFLECKS SHOULD STAY OPEN! its keeping the world different!
how can yu think of closing afflecks? people from all over the country come 2 manchester to go there. afflecks is amaze. and has been open for years! chavs dont go there, its bliss. dont close it. stop being silly&&closing it. it has good business, a good reputation. and how can yu even think about changing it or closing it, when so many people go there, and worsip the place. think properly!
How can you think of changing somewhere people hang out out, shop and have a laugh for boring flats. I have friends from leeds rochdale oldham all over that love Afflecks so don't remove somewhere where people can have fun, stay off the streets and feel safe. KEEP IT OPEN!!!!!
it has been getting less rock and alternative for years, but theats no reason to close it, maybe it needs some new, less comercial shops and a bit more of an attitude again. but if you close it then i have no real reason to go to manchester anymore
I agree with the general sentiment of everyone else here; it's about culture! Lose Afflecks - "ON THE SIXTH DAY GOD CREATED MANchester" et al. - and Manchester will become the ever-increasing carbon-copy of every other city centre. Drab and faceless. No!
In Manchester, Afflecks is the one genuinely cool and interesting place to shop. Without it, the Northern Quarter would die a horrible death. Manchester would take a step towards becoming a drab, cultureless city.
The Hacienda now this!It was a huge part of my teens! How many flats do we need! Its also a very important tourist attraction! What exactly does Manchester want to do, totally lose it's identity
You cant shut afflecks, it's too cool a place. There are so many cool shops in there all of thrm original and different. it's been part of manchester for like eva. to shut it down would be an absaloute discrace. PLEASE, KEEP IT OPEN!!!
I know a load of people complaining won't change the fact that its getting harder to afford the place's rent, but Afflecks is surprisingly important to alot of people!
Afflecks is amazing, please dont close it, its one of the only truly original places left in this world of sheep we live in. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! It's so cool!!! Its what gives Manchester it's edge, makes it beat Birmingham, 2nd city all the way!
You cannot close afflecks palace, its part of manchesters culture and charm! Who needs yet another lot of posh flats? Can't believe you would close it down, where else shall i shop?
OMG afflecks is the heart of the manchesters culture its the best place ever! the nobs are trying to commercialise everything..no ones wants to be average n manchster will be without afflecks
