I know its set in a rural village not really near towns or cities, but which big town/ city is Emmerdale nearest to? I'd guess Leeds

I always thought Leeds, as I am sure they've mentioned going there in the past.

One thing I notice in Emmerdale is that they never mention supporting Leeds or the Sheffield clubs

I know this is fairly irrelevant, but in Corrie most characters support Man Utd and in Eastenders they support West Ham

They normally just go to Hotton, but Leeds sometimes gets a mention.

Isn't it set in the real town of Otley, near Bradford ?

Harrogate, no? It sometimes gets mentioned if a character goes further afield than Hotton.

Hotten is a fictional town. The nearest real life location ever mentioned is Leeds. I guess it's like when I grew up in a village in Essex. If we said we were going into town, it was Chelmsford, the City it was London. Harrogate isn't far from the Dales either and is a lovely City so they would go there quite often as well.
