Aerofilms Football Grounds Guide list the official address as Lostock ,Bolton BL6 6JW .
Burnden Park had its own supermarket ,it took up 70% of the away end terrace !

the Vue Cinema that is about 75 yards away from the stadium is Middlebrook Retail Park, Linkway, Horwich and it has the same Postcode lol

I always classed it as horwich

Leeds United - Thorpe Arch ,Wetherby (20 milesish)
is another .
I was thinking more in terms of the actual playing stadium location to the Town /City /Borough they represent .

OK here's one for you. Qarabag Agdam of the Azerbaijan league play home matches in Baku, which is 140 miles away from Agdam. Their original stadium was destroyed during war between Azerbaijan and Armenia, so they now use the national stadium as their home ground.

This one's a bit of a cheat but Sheffield United play their home games in Chengdu in China :

Sporting x Porto is on BT Sport 1 now, is 1 - 1

must be 11pm in Portugal now, i'd love football to be on a that time as it suits my working hours, but this country has an early bird mentality and it would never happen

^^^ The time in Portugal is the same as in the UK.
