Birth place of Heinz baked beans, Pataks Indian foods, Potters herbal remedies and Uncle Joe's Mint Balls.
Thomas Beecham first manufactured his famous pills in Wigan. Marks and Spencer was born in Wigan when Michael Marks joined forces with Thomas Spencer in 1894.
As a sort of Hull connection, the folk-rockers the Tansads are from Wigan.
George Formby Senior first named it Wigan Pier.
Wigan's war memorial was designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, who also designed red telephone boxes.
As he never reads these, Chaz won't work out I'm just cutting and pasting the old ones, which is still more than that lazy sod does.
During its heyday, the town featured at least 1,000 coal pit shafts.
Wigan Borough has roughly the same population as Iceland.
Wigan has more pie shops per square mile than any other town in the UK.
The World Pie Eating Championships are held in Wigan every year and contestants from all over compete to eat a meat and potato pie in the fastest possible time. The current record is 38 seconds.
The 19th Century Coal-Owner, Lord Crawford of Balcarres had dinner services made from the unusually hard and clean 'cannel' coal found in his Wigan seams. He would amaze his guests by ceremonially burning their plates on an open fire after the meal.

Tighten up at the back and don't concede.
Keep hold of the ball in midfield and be more creative.
Be more clinical upfront and score goals.
Put that in a PowerPoint with some nice graphics, a bit of fading in transition whilst making the letters zoom in from the side and appear to brake alarmingly at the very last second and you've got yourself a top, top interview presentation folks.
One - one if we're very lucky.

Though Wigan definitely produce more baked beans than Portugal has hotel beds, they weren't born there. They were born in Pittsburg and the first UK factory didn't open until nine years later and it was in London.
Those were the ****ty yank versions though and they didn't sell anything like as well in the civilised world. The fact relates to the far more popular UK version.
Its bigger than that... no losses in last 9 away league games , 7 wins and 2 draws
and more,,, 2 losses in their last 18 away games... 3-2 at Portsmouth and 4-1 at owls last February...
Let the resurgence commence.
Home win 2-0. UTT!!
Home win 2-0. UTT!!
Excellent figures soon to come to a juddering halt, we'll smash the feckers!
You'll be ****ed when we play Forest Green for the first time!

Ah, but it was at least the home of the Author of one of my favourite poems.
“What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.
No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.
A poor life this if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
DMD's fact for Forest Green,
Nailsworth has more hotel beds than all the hotels in Port Vale.

It does raise a question on Nailsworth's claim to be the smallest settlement to host league football, as it's difficult to be smaller (or bigger) than somewhere that doesn't exist.
They do in DMD's mind.Most 'facts' don't exist, such as Portugal hotel beds guff.
But what can you expect from someone who actually put liquorice shoelaces in his shoes instead of eating them.
