A quick question about sixfields (11 Viewers)

[gooner]

good forum here and I can see the majority if not all of you are boycotting Northampton , I just have a quick question , how do you feel towards your fellow sky blues who do go to the games over there ?

im not a stalker by the way but I do have family in Coventry and my parents lived there in the 60s so Coventry have always kinda been my second team :blue:

Stick around as Long as you like Gooner

There have been times where fans have had to agree to disagree over the issue.

I have family and friends who attend; I don't. I don't judge them for going and they don't judge me (I don't think ).

They want to support the team, like I do, I just can't face attending a home game away from home. I'm happy to follow the team on the road, but for home games when there's no certainty of it being a temporary thing, I can't do it! That might change once concrete plans, location, and building works towards the 'new stadium' are available. But at the time minute, a few fancy pictures won't cut it for me.

I'm gutted the attendees are getting to see the football that I'm not; I certainly don't enjoy listening to home games on the radio.

I don't bear any grudge against the people going, although I don't understand the method of the fans who choose to watch from the hill (but that's an altogether different issue and so we won't get into details about that )

Most disagree with the sixfielders but bear no grudges, and don't give them abuse. There's a very small minority that do give them abuse though unfortunately. Insults like scab etc, it's pretty boring tbh and it has been done to death on this forum. Just look at a few older threads, and you'll get the idea.

I think they are all spineless and have lost ALL self respect !

But you are not allowed to tell it how it is, so I retract that statement.

 

[M&B Stand]

As an outsider what's your view of the situation?

Some people on the hill watch part of a game others dont watch any of a game. I can understand why people go in can't understand why of the ones that don't more don't protest

I wont pretend to know everything but I do read and follow the fortunes of you from a distance, but if it was me I wouldn't go there tbh, the owners have to know that football is about the fans and without us it wouldn't exist, I support your boycott, I hope it works out in the end and I look forward to one day going to the ricoh with my dad for a premier league game ccfc v the arsenal .

I think in short all those who refuse to go, wish very strongly that those who do go, didn't ! However it's a free country and despite the pressures a small percentage will always want to attend. Hopefully those that do, do so with a heavy heart knowing that the whole situation is very wrong !

 

[asb]

We did have a whole thread on this topic not that long ago.

http://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/41324-Does-anyone-hold-a-grudge-with-people-who-go-Sixfields

So forgive me if I don't make the same or similar comments on this one.

Thanks for asking anyway.

I don't go and I don't have any desire that those who attend should not. So as usual you are wrong.

 

[Ashdown1]

Nobody gives a shit what you think anyway !!

What a maverick.

Yet another unqualified remark and one which evidence significantly suggests otherwise.

And one you had to reply to - whereas most of Ashdowns ranting a are forgotten and quickly end up in the recycle bin.

FFS stop bickering.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

You know Mr I'm so intelligent why won't anyone listen to me.
After all I'm on a 6 figure sum (probably in rupees not pounds).

Thinks Fish and fisher are the same person and hates the council got turned down for a dinner ladies job I believe.


OH I feel better now

Who:thinking about:

 

[Grendel]

FFS stop bickering.

It's Sunday night and that means the double act get together with some futile attempt at mockery. It happens every week.

As for Ashdowns nonsense that every fan who boycotts Sixfields does not want those who go to attend - that is a lie and needs exposing as such.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Sorry can't help it treats everyone as if they are stupid gets on my nerves.

To be honest I feel the same. I'm quite happy for people to go to Sixfields. At the end of the day everyone is doing what they think is right as an individual and most respect that.

Not everyone.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Oh forgot about RFC and torch

Not everyone.

 

[Otis]

I am sad that people have decided to go, but at the end of the day it is their choice.

Think it would be better and we would be totally united if no-one at all went to any 'home' games in Northampton.

The biggest worry for me is that of the club having success and the stayaways relenting and drifiting back bit by bit. If we were to get to stage where Sixfields was near to capacity I think that they would then be no rush whatsoever to come back home.

 

[Grendel]

Oh forgot about RFC and torch

Wingy, Otis, TommyDazzle, ohitsaidwalker, moff and even Valiant sit on the opposite side of the argument but I do respect their views and clearly there are others. Again you make a lazy, ill informed post as my disdain for RfC is very clear.

More nonsense from your keyboard.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

True and the attendees wouldn't care no matter what they say.
I don't believe Pete Chambers from Styvechale is in the minority who attend just says what they are scared to say.

Me lazy.....
Sorry but couldn't be further from the truth.

Just not a keyboard warrior like yourself.

Can this forum ever have a thread where a Grendel post isn't greeted by a pile-on of stupidity? Fucking hell.

You've got to admire his stamina.

It's ridiculous. He can make the most sensible point in the world and everyone still piles on just because it's him.
