Who are your 10 nearest non league clubs?

Depends on whether you define the National League as Non League.
If the answer is yes then
Stockport County....definitely the closest
Altrincham
Macclesfield Town
Curzon Ashton
Ashton United
Hyde United
FC United of Manchester
Stalybridge Celtic
Droylsden( though no longer as they have resigned due to impact of the pandemic...really sad)
Mossley

I know there will be more local clubs nearer me, like Cheadle Town ,but my knowledge doesn’t stretch that far😉

Maybe Wigan might replace Droylsden but that assumes they don’t end like Bury with no League available to them this coming season.I hope not even though I am not “fond” of them
 
I think but Altrincham could be closer than Chester

1874 Northwich
Witton Albion
Northwich Victoria
Barnton
Winsford
Runcorn
Runcorn Linnets
Warrington Town
Rylands
Chester
 
Unfortunately that site doesn't include all non-League clubs.

It goes down to step 6 of the non-League pyramid and so therefore it excludes a lot of clubs near me that play at step 7 and lower. At those levels the games are basically free entrance, but all those clubs still need support and fans so they can get income from other sources.


So ignoring the list it gave me, which included Burscough, Bamber Bridge and Lancaster, the 10 closest to me are:

Thornton Cleveleys
Poulton
Anchorsholme
Wyre Villa
AFC Blackpool
Squires Gate
Wren Rovers
Lytham Town
Freckleton
Fulwood Amateurs

And only two of those are on that site!
