Narrowly behind was fellow Cheshire town Ellesmere Port, where a combined £67,149 was pocketed. One person picked up £23,918 from just £3.
A Ladbrokes spokesman said: “Football fans in Warrington must be doing their homework, or there must be something in the water there at least as more of their long odds football accumulators have come good than anywhere else in the UK this year. Punters there clearly have the magic touch when it comes to big wins.”
He added: “We take our hat off to the football punters of Shoreham as well as fans in the small town are doing far better at landing soccer jackpots than punters in nearly every other part of the country.”
The Rhondda in South Wales is third, having collected £56, 862 whilst Wolverhampton and Barnet round off the top five with £42,302 and £39,743 respectively.
The biggest win from a small stake came from a lucky punter in Barnet, who pocketed £34,387 from £2.
Only one area with a Premier League team made the top ten in the shape of Southampton, where £12,732 has been won.
