current postcode shows Leeds.

Was born in Warrington. Don't know the postcode where I used to live but Manchester United is one of the local teams and is the one I've followed due to family members.

1.53 miles: Scun thorpe United Football Club.

Dunno where the 1.53 comes from, it's actually about 15 minutes' walk, tops.

Mine listed 38 miles to Villa where I used to live, closest was Stoke City where I used to travel with my uncle if it didn't clash with Villa games.

Doesn't list Stafford Rangers who probably would have been closer but I guess as a conference league club they don't count.

From my parents house

2.34 miles CH Brighton and Hove Albion BN1 1YR 01273 776 992

There is no way that is correct though. The above address is the registered address in the centre of town. The pitch is a 30 second walk away, I can see the pitch one of their upstairs bedrooms!!

1.56 miles to the home of the Mighty Silkmen

36.13 miles to Anfield

15.87 miles D1 Lancashire CCC

All the others are irrelevant


Those distances must be as the crow flies though, because the Reebok is definitely more than 28 miles from my house

It's all academic at the moment though, because every ground in the UK is over 8000 miles from my present address



Editted to add: Although there are 19 league grounds closer to my house than Anfield, Goodison isn't one of them, thank God
