I disagree. After 40 plus years of support not going to see my team IS a sacrifice. I woyld imagine the thousands of other stays ways feel the same.
But nobody can see or hear you or your opinion sat at home?.......................Just sayin

I agree with alot of that but the problem is if you don't get enough numbers the plan is harmful not helpful and the fact the organisation has been so haphazard and the fact the media and nopm have fallen out there is almost no hope of success. The smarter option is to say we are having a mass protest on the hill, get everyone there, if it turns out there is thousands of people then the organiser with a megaphone can announce a plan. If you get hundreds you have a nice protest on the hill, if you get thousands you can all go in and walk out, causing some chaos in the protest with thousands trying to buy tickets etc. It might end up delaying the start of the game too causing more coverage.
Im fed up with people knocking fans for doing what they believe in whether that is going into the game, standing on the hill or staying at home.
I will say that i believe the hill standers are making the biggest sacrifice for the cause in terms of time and effort.
Obviously their effort seems to embarrass yours to speak out with such condemnation !!!!
Those who have been on the Hill will confirm that its a decent view, do not knock it till you have actually tried it. When they built this venue they must have known that you can see two thirds of the pitch at any one time, by moving around to one side or the other you can see all the pitch and both goals.
There is a small stand in the way (where a few City fans sit as cheaper seats) but its not very big.
anyone who goes will be suprised at what they find, especially the pub and eating places 100 yards behind you.
No, they are watching the game for free...
So you contribute to the local Northampton economy and watch the game for free, making your gesture at standing on the hill rather futile.
Sure kfc helps the Northampton economy.
Trust are not getting involved at all....

Its not really contributing to the Northampton economy though is it. These pubs are owned and run by national chains, and I am pretty sure that McDonalds has other outlets outside of the Borough boundary. Whats wrong with watching the game while you are there? The point being that it may well draw some media attention. Its not for some (or most, which is fair enough) but let them get on with it. The argument that these people wouldn't go if they couldn't see the game is irrelavant - the hill is there - get over it!
Clutching at those Sisu straws again Stupot.
I have been offered free tickets and said no thanks. Will not go in even if I were paid the £17 to enter.
I can watch the game for free and make my own private protest, to me its morally wrong for us to be playing there. If we don't do something we will be playing in Northampton girl a lot longer than 5 years.
It's my choice as it's anyone who wants to go in, my view is its wrong but will not insult anyone who foes not agree.
Its not "MORALLY WRONG" - its something you dont agree with .Please dont confuse morals (subjective) with fact.
Not sure if you are a little bit slow.....So I should eat a McDonald's only in Coventry?
What are they sacrificing exactly - they watch the game.

We will have it on in The Establishment Free of Charge - rather than draw people away from businesses why don't you support the ones around the Ricoh or in the city centre that will already showing it? why go to the expense of big screens etc, when there are plenty of pubs and clubs desperate for added revenue from such games...support your local?
Let's all go!!!!!
3-4000 people milling around the McDonald's and the pub near the hill.
It couldn't fail to escape sky's attention

So is it being scrapped or just a rumor?
