Easyjet at MAN

Easyjet have not pushed BA or AA out of Manchester, BA decided along time ago that they much prefer to be called London Airways and fly out of London only,in the future i can see LGW being the same as Manchester, Liverpool and all other Uk airports with BA only operating out of LHR.
BA now only operate London shuttles to MAN the JFK route that has always made money and still does is being axed end of October, this has nothing to do with easyjet, all that easyjet have done is taken over the GB airways/BA slots and same destinations as flown over recent years, Flybe have grown the most with BA's departure.
Re:-AA they are cuttting back for winter season only, this is a quieter period for transatlantic flights and the situation in America regards fuel increase seems to be hitting airlines that much harder.Nothing to do with easyjet unless they've applied for Manchester to Chicago via how many stops!!!!!!!!!!
easyjet will grow at manchester and will take passengers away from liverpool in the future just the same as ryanair are doing, ryanair have increased more routes from the winter, do you really expect easyjet to sit back and watch????????
Ryanair and easyjet will grow at Manchester, however manchester will loose some of its established airlines as a result, purely the fact theres not the demand for 2 or 3 airlines on the same routes flying daily to certain destinations.
