Thumbs down Middlesboro pies????

Everyone knows Wigan and pies are synonymous. Wigan has more
pie shops than banks. Meat and Potato, steak and if you are a veggie Cheese.
No chicken and Mushroom or any other unless you are a southerner!

The world pie eating champiosnhips were held in Wigan in front of a sky
news camera team

There are more pie shops in Wigan than there are banks! Wiganers are known
worldwide as 'pie eaters' whereas Middlesborough are known as 'smoggies'!

My favourite is the pies made by Greenhalghs, man no-one never mind
someone from Middlesborough can make a pie like them men

Stick to getting thrashed in the UEFA cup by Seville wait till Wigan Ath
get into the UEFA cup... we'll show you hows it done!
