The Ryanair rumour could be true, as they may get an introductory offer again, but will probably just bugger off after the years subsidy is gone.
As for easyjet, im getting a little bit annoyed at them really. Out of 19 routes they currently serve, only Sofia, Geneva (during the summer as Swiss op in winter) and marrakesh are served by them alone. In the 4 new routes that are rumoured (not inc AMM), they are all served by another airline. Dont get me wrong, pax increase is welcome, but come on easy, think outside the box. What about Madrid, Berlin, Vienna, Krakow!
The routes Easy are serving risk running other airlines out of MAN. Take GOT, if easy open this, City airline will do a runner and we will be stuck with a 3xweekly service on U2 as apposed to a double daily service on CF.
Not good, not good at all.
