Ajja Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 That's bollocks. It says I live 90 miles from ICT, 98 miles from Aberdeen and 124 from Newcastle. Actual distances are 137 miles, 114 miles and 170 miles. I place no value on the results of this site. Thing is my friend. I reckon you got the other distances from an alternative site. Ask yourself which web conspiracy you are going to believe ? Which one has most to gain by fooling you ? There you will find your answer to all things fact/web related Quote

Nae sure whether yer fishing here, but it would be due to the direction from which you are approaching the area. If, for example, you draw a line between Ibrox and Love Street, and your house is situated on that line the difference would be equal to the distance between the grounds. However, if you live off that line, the difference between the grounds will gradually reduce until your reach a point where you are on a line perpendicular to and bisecting the Ibrox/LoveSt vector precisely halfway, they will be perfectly equidistant. Ok? Quote

Ok? Perhaps, but I would have assumed the way you approach Ibrox and Love Street from Aberdeen and Inverness would have been somewhat similar and not accounting for a 2.5 mile difference. Quote

Well, the difference is almost a 45 degree angle so it would be fairly significant. That said, Ibrox and Love St are virtually on a west to east line, so it would suggest the opposite of the results you got. Quote
