Thing is we were re-classified a few years back and we
are not in Lancashire anymore djy!

seriously we are in Greater Manchester now

I would suggest that's more a political rather than geographical boundary.

. . . and i live specifically in Tameside i think most people here speak
more manc than lanc in my area.

A bit like my West Country accent, the more southerly one goes (Somerset/Devon), the stronger it gets. And for those who don't know, Cornwall has, quite literally, a language all of its own.


PS
When visiting Lancashire (seeing the outlaws) I tend to drift into a cod Yorkshire, just to wind them up. It's quite hilarious hearing them trying to reciprocate.
