If First actually wanted to sell, I think they would need to find an alternative buyer that has no, (or few) operations in the Manchester area.

Well, stagecoach would be able to fulfill the price of any depot in Manchester and keep it running to a high standard but I wouldn't see Arriva buying any depots in Manchester at the time being because they have one depot only in Wythenshawe (I believe) and they got rid of their Manchester depot. Though, I'm too quick to judge on this.

i guess theres Always EYMS/Finglands.mostly a modern fleet with very little that needs replacing,maybe they could go for queens road

Woah! Finglands, modern!? No offence but I barely see a modern bus on one of their routes!
