couple of points. Is that measuring as the crow flies, rather than by road. The distances are less than Google maps. Also this does not take account of the Town moving since I was born. I might have been closer to Wolves, but probably not 1 Shrewsbury = 1.8 miles 2 Shrewsbury = 12.9 miles 3 Town as above or Wolves 14.3 miles Read more: blueandamber.proboards.com/thread/99261/nearest-club#ixzz5ptjH5PvxAs the crow flies, but must be a crow on steroids if it can fly 5776 miles from my house to Sunderland!!

1 which is the nearest club to the 92 you currently live by ? At a guess, Exeter - farthest west 2 which club in the 92 were you born nearest to ? Wolverhampton 3 nearest club of note to where you were born ? Bridgnorth Town

1. Salop 2. Liverpool ... 3. ... so Man United would have been the nearest club of note. Either them or Runcorn (now Linnets). Also within 12 miles of something called FC Pilchy of the Liverpool County Premier League Division One - he kept that quiet.

1. Crewe 13.1 2. Shrewsbury 54.4 3.Shrewsbury again! Just realised that when I was born the answer to 2 would have been Wrexham FC! Of course they wont have registered on the footballgroundmap site given that they have not been a FL club for decades! Google maps tell me that they would have been 7 miles closer to my home town.

EFL wise: 1. Villa Park (2.4 miles) 2. Molineux (8 miles) 3. Molineux (8 miles) Salop are twelfth, with 40.7 miles as ‘the crow flies’. All grounds 1. Trevor Brown Memorial Ground (Boldmere St Michaels FC) 2. War Memorial Athletic Ground (Stourbridge FC) 3. Aggborough (Kidderminster Harriers FC) Shrewsbury Town are 305th on the list
