You will have driven straight past numerous signs to Yorkshire on your way to the City Centre

MAN isn't too bad generally. It's just that BA uses T3, which was never really designed to be anything else than a BA/OW terminal. Now BA have pulled out, there are loads of other airlines in there, with not much in the was of food/drink/shops.

T1 & T2 are better.

The airport has been improved substantially over the last couple of years. All the terminals have new Security areas, and it never takes me more that 2 or 3 minutes to get through.
