As your back in Cov now, surely away games are more available to you? Cheap travel on Harry Shaw, Cov is central to the rest of England etc....?

Cost £16 on the day last year like others have said behind the goal is best but still very little atmosphere .. Most of the people there you will recognise from away matches .and friendly games .. Die hard fans that don't like going to six fields .. But just want to watch city.. As for parking I parked at cineworld for every game .. There are signs saying no parking but it's not enforced .. Really easy to get out after the matches with so few attending .. But I myself will hardly go this year as the matches are back to Saturday and I have work

True enough, but the last time I lived in Cov I was a season ticket holder, I am not going to go that far yet but I need to give this a go, I don't want the odd two matches a month, I need more than that.

I'd recommend the hill first. As you know I went to the hill once last season, and it's heartbreaking. May go to the hill more this season, but would rather spend the money going away. Bradford away btw?

As I said to Tony though Mustafa I can't see the point in spending the money in travel to go up there and stand on the hill, you might as well enter the ground, but that's me personally.
Does a leopard have spots? Of course I'll be there

Encourage what? I assume those who go to away games are "encouraging" them as well are they?

Behind the goal the atmosphere was decent a few times last season. Main stand seemed a bit dead. Expect the numbers to fall this year however. Decided against renewing my season ticket this year

Being honest, the only atmosphere is the away end and the hill. It's actually sad listening to 30/40 people trying to start 'PUSB' behind the goal. Not once have the Sixfielders outsung the away fans, which is depressing.
The atmosphere on the hill is usually great, the people up there a brilliant, everyone gets on and are always willing to have a sing song, even when it's minus 10 on a Tuesday in early February against a minow.
The best fans were Stevenage. They were immense, 400 of them didn't shut up and each song could be heard clearly from the hill.

No doubt about it the atmosphere in the ground is poor to put it mildly. But to suggest the atmosphere on the hill is 'great' is stretching the realms of fantasy a bit. I personally heard the echoes of a song coming from the hill once during nearly an entire season behind the goal.
I'm sure those on the hill do their best but it's a pretty desolate place to watch two-thirds of a football match. I think both the 'sixfielders' and the 'hillers' can agree on one thing, it's a sorry situation to be there.
Personally I won't be at sixfields so regularly this season, although it's more to do with a change in circumstances meaning more away matches are in reach this year, as opposed to any 'political' decision to stop going. I've always been an 'away fan', well since we left highfield road anyway.

Atmosphere? There ain't any. But I've been to plenty of games at the Ricoh and some at HR that didn't have atmosphere either. I guess the difference is you're guaranteed to have no atmosphere at Sixfields. There was one game though where there was surprisingly quite a bit of singing. Can't remember which one. The away fans tend to be quiet unless they bring a lot; Wolves being an example.
Last season I was the last block before the JSBs, so lots of families around me. Not much singing, though it did happen on occasion, but quite a few excited kids - they don't let the politics of it all affect them like us adults. This season I'll be sitting slightly more towards the Hill end goal in the JSB section.
If there is singing it does tend to be from behind the goal.
Can't remember ever hearing anything from the hill, apart from the whistle a couple of times.

I know it has been said before if no one went to sxfeilds in the beginning this nonsense would of been over after the first game.and as for away games .its my way of saying I'll support my team but not the idiots in charge.
In space no one can here you scream.
At Sixfields all you need to do is fart and everyone will hear you.

Only went once, we were all crammed into one stand. Atmosphere was, well... main-stand lite. tbh I don't sing anyway, but the atmosphere was... resigned.
As far as I'm aware though, when they opened the other stands you were able to move around to check out other places.
That the kind of answer you wanted?

Of course you never......
And yes the away fans are far more vocal,some good football last season and still never sang, to me that is what it is all about.

my protest is vote with your feet.
I personally feel paying to get into Sixfileds is showing you support the move, so I will never be doing it, away games only for me.

I got a ticket for behind the Goal, I'll give it a go and see what happens, although I'd prefer that a deal is reached to play at the Ricoh before then.

If I am honest KOK it's a decision I have made with a heavy heart, but at the end of the day I want to see my Club play Football, of course I would rather that be at the Ricoh but at the moment it's not meant to be. People I know have asked me if I will get a Season Ticket, I won't commit to that, I will give the Cardiff fixture a go and see what happens.
I am not going for the excitement of Northampton or because Sixfields is a wonderful stadium or because I support Sisu, I spent five years of my life living in Devon not being able to regularly get to games, now that I have moved back home I won't let a short train journey stop me from seeing the Club I was born to support.

Nice one. That's what it's about. Support. Leave the politics to others. Not everyone agrees but people rarely do.

Unfortunately the politics are what they are, but today's statements have renewed some hope that a return to the Ricoh is possible.
All it takes is for both parties to discuss the deal and hopefully come to a resounding conclusion in which the Club can return home.

Robo it's completely yor decision as we know but it's not about the money as what's a Cardiff ticket? £10? But it's morally wrong. It's politics sure and we are all sick to death of it sure but fight in what you believe and if you believe Coventry should be playing in Coventry then you shouldn't go IMO.
It's for this reason I won't go. It's not about money or logistics it's just morally wrong so on that basis I would go if I was given a season ticket for free and free travel to every game. It's not so much nopm for me it's more just morally wrong.
No one loves the sky blues more than me and we all feel the same. Coventry city needs to play in Coventry. Yes it's all bs and politics but morally it's wrong. Buying a ticket is like agreeing with the move to me IMO of course. The majority don't go for a reason Robo. Just goes to show how this who saga plays with people's emotions and I know you and Coventryismyfaith are both genuine and just want to watch your team. You said yourself you want to watch the team you were born to watch so watch them with the name in the team. We will be back one day mate we all want to go and watch Cov heck I've been tempted many time to go sixfields especially when playing so well but I always stopped myself.
Emotions get in the way and this is what sisu play on. Your emotion. Today's statement is smacks of desperation and panic although I do applaud it as we need to come home. Else there will be no ccfc to watch in 3 years time.
Sisu need to come home bigtime and they may finally see sense. I don't get people who won't come back if we do come back to Ricoh as this achieves nothing although again I don't blame them as they have been let down massively. I would be back season ticket if we came home sisu or not.
To conclude, do what you want Robo and I said the same to Coventryismyfaith and this is no way a critical post before torch and Grendel come on. Robo is allowed to do what he wants. I just wanted to say my piece from one fan to another.

It's appreciated KOK, thank you, but for me this feels like something I have to do.
I can only say that my heart has led me to this choice, I shall see how that Cardiff game goes and go from there.
