Nearest football club to where you now live

Live in Poulton-le-Fylde. Just checked the maps and, fortunately, Bloomfield Rd is nearer than Fleetwood to where we live. 😉 👍

This really is a fascinating thread. Amazing that BFC fans live in such far away places.
Lived in France for a number of years, Angouleme is the nearest FC to where we lived.

Since there are many Blackpool exiles on this messageboard I thought it would be interesting to hear which professional club you now live closest to.

I'll start with Ipswich Town.
Likewise..shame they have gone up and we have ...gone down.

After Friday and Hartlepool's relegation; the nearest football league ground is Middlesbrough 8 miles. Sunderland is 16.

Interesting how the Tees acts as natural border as I know far more Sunderland 'fans' in Hartlepool than Boro even though it's further away

Historic county boundaries run deep.
 
Turnstone Drive now, from Carleton originally.
I’m just off Tullie Street.
Family all on my better half’s side all Carlisle Utd fans, but myself and my two kids bleed tangerine.

Although an away fixture on our doorstep would be most welcome, deep down I’m praying they bottle it and stay down.
Sweet revenge for all the ribbing we had to endure after our relegation was confirmed.
