What a rip off!
Says I was born nearest to Bury FC, but at the time we were at Burnden Park not the Reebok, which would've been closer.

Mind, I live within spitting distance of Gigg Lane now so I really shouldn't moan.

Wonder what EPL stadium is closest to Barcelona. Pompey I guess?

And the closest football stadium to my first home was the one of CF Badalona, which I played in their youth teams.

Currently I guess I live closest to CE Mataró, currently on 3rd Division. I've gone to see some games there.

That's enough to moan about on its own!



Apparently i'm 5 miles away from Bury and 6 from the Reebok.

Burnden Park was just shy of two-miles away at the time and considering I was born at what is now Bolton General i'm definitely a Bolton supporter in that instance.

Just a shame now that I live closer to Bury and OT than I do to Bolton's ground.

where I was born:

Bolton Wanderers


Where I live now:

Cardiff City

Rochdale

BWFC
Citeh

Where I was (Breightmet): Bury, Bolton, Rochdale, rags, Citeh, Jackburn, Pies
Where I am: Brentford, Fulham, Chelsea, QPR, Palace, Millwall, Arsenal, Watford

Bolton where I am at the minute, followed by Bury and MUFC.

At uni...Bristol City, Bristol Rovers and then Swindon town...but the closest three results aren't even footy clubs! Bloody south west.

Or where I am now -

Nob End
Dingles
Blackpool
BWFC
Wiggin
Burnley

Although Leigh RMI and Leigh Centurions are a matter of a few hundred yards away, they don't seem to be included;

5.69 miles BWFC
6.2 miles Pies

It'll do for me!
