Isn't Carlisle further than Newcastle?

"Newcastle's ground is at latitude 54° 58' 31" N, and Carlisle's is at 54° 53' 45" N, so Newcastle is about 4-5 miles further north. " or so a website tells me.

Ours is 51º29'12"N with a longitude of 00º02'09"E in case anyone wants to get this info on a flag!

We possibly have the smallest longitude of any professional club, now there's a clam to fame.
