New Soccer thread - Page 2

Haha, fair enough.

On a sort of related note, I thought I'd try and work out which ground is nearest to where I live currently with a possibility of lending them my support. This site was quite useful:

Hopewiser UK - Find Your Nearest Sports Grounds

However, sadly, the nearest club to where I live these days is Millwall, and there is no chance in hell I will be supporting them. Pleasingly, and surprisingly, the second nearest club is Arsenal, so that works out well

Had assumed other clubs like Leyton Orient and possibly Charlton would have been closer, but apparently not.

Interestingly the only team that comes within the top ten nearest professional clubs to all the houses I have lived at in my life (these being in Wycombe, Hampshire, Reading and London) is Brentford. Therefore my casual following and support of the Bee's has been vindicated.

What is this game anyway? Can't say I've ever been interested in it.

Too many soccer threads are ruining the GSF IMO, if we got rid of them all we could have threads that were last posted in in September 2007 on Page 1, if only

Who the **** let you back in?

This house, at 3.52m, is the furthest I've ever lived from OT - and have never lived nearer City than Utd thank God. The site doesnt list Altrincham FC, as I think they'd be my closest now

Bit misleading really as the 'crow flies' nature of these measurements means that while scumbuckets like B***** may appear closer than Crewe, they aren't in travel terms.

Good to see Jester and Wrexscum airbrushed out of existence though if nothing else
