A question for all the attendees of Sixfields, with regards to the Ground and the atmosphere, where does the atmosphere come from within the Ground and what is the pricing for seats in that area roughly? I tried calling the Club shop but they won't answer.

If you don't attend of Sixfields or don't like my question don't respond on my thread please, Thanks.

I've been three times last season. TBH there is very little atmosphere in the ground. It's kind of like watching a friendly to be honest. I have sat in the main stand each time so I dont know what it is like behind the goal.

No probs, however, you may also consider the potential fall in fans going. I know of 4 season ticket holders who have decided not to go this year.

The main stand - no real atmosphere - no credit cards on the day it is cash only. £4 to park easy access in from 15 or 16 on the M1

But you clearly don't want to protest yourself. How odd.

Why would that be a consideration if you want to watch the team?

I know there is no genuine atmosphere, but little is better than none I suppose.

I thought it has been said a few times that the atmosphere is where the away away fans are situated.

I always assumed you'd be going this year anyway. I was hoping you'd be making some noise

For anything resembling an atmosphere you need to be behind the goal.

Anywhere between 150-200 in there, can pick a seat and stand up no problem. Never been any problems with stewards at all.

It's not really an 'atmosphere' as in like an away match, but it's the closest you will get at sixfields.

As for prices, i think it was £2 extra to go behind the goal. I think it was £14 in the main stand and £16 behind the goal last season. (Or was it 16 and 18). I had a half season ticket for the second half of the season so can't remember what i paid before that.

Bear in mind that you can't pay cash at the turnstile, need to buy ticket before-hand at the portacabin/ticket office by the main entrance. Also the only facilities behind the goal are the bogs, and a food counter. No bar. Which does beg the question why it's £2 extra compared to the main stand, which i expect has a bar.

Serious question.

Have you been to the hill yet? if you havent give it a go 1st, if only for one game. You'll get an idea from the hill what its like inside as you can see most of it.

Thanks Tony, but if I am going to pay all the money and make the effort to go to the Hill, I might as well purchase a ticket into the Ground, or that's the way I see it anyhow, thanks though.

No problem.

If it helps, from my one visit to the hill this is what i decided. Its no better an atmosphere than going to watch my local non-league team Rugby Town.

If were still at suxfields next year ointlaugh: (had to have a little laugh at myself there) I'll be doing one of 2 things. Saturday afternoons I'll be going to Rugby Town (with my youngest daughter by the looks of it as she's just made her own mind up that she want's to watch the football with daddy) and i'll make as many midweek trips to the Hill as I can.

Good luck to you anyway Rob, whatever you decide.

When they start re-developing Sixfields, will that mean the view from the hill will be reduced?

I beleve so. To favour corperate boxes apparently. from what i can gather in certain seats you'll have to stand up and look around a wall to enable you to see the goal at the furthest end from you.

Thanks Tony.

It's frustrating, obviously I would prefer to be at the Ricoh watching City, but I am sick of not seeing City play.

Some say the atmosphere in Sixfields, is akin to screaming in outerspace....Some say the "Chant Leader" is the love child of Paddington Bear and Pamela Anderson...All we know is.......................................................................................He's called the "Stig"
