If you didn't follow the Wanderers who would you support in regards to your proximity?
Closest non league team would be Altricham which is around 2 miles.

So four rival clubs in the PL within a 25 mile radius of my postcode. Not many people have that kind of fierce competition within a few miles. I assume the next two on the list would have been Liverpool and Everton.

So from Wigan it is less than 20 mile to six other Premier League clubs, no wonder their ground is alwys half full.

When we added the geo-checkin feature on ja606 we never thought to add a feature similar to the one on that site.
Though our check-in feature hasn't really been used in anger.
---
I want to use it, Admin1, but there are two obstacles.
One is that the match articles are pretty hard to do on an iPhone on the way to a game, adding smilies, stats, links, team news and formatting takes forever.
The other one is that there is so much network congestion at the Reebok, I struggle to even view threads, never mind create them.
The only solution I can think of to improve this situation would be to allow a geo-check in to apply to an article after it has been created, say, within 2 hours or something.
-------------------------------------------------
The way we kinda envisaged it, would be people would check-in at the stadium. Then create the article about the game when they got home.

Since we moved to the Reebok, Bury are now my nearest club, so I guess I'd have followed them ......
