you do know Sixfields is twice as close to the town centre than the old county ground?
Its 20 mins brisk walk / 10 mins bus ride from the station and you pass several food outlets and 6 pubs!
Sixfields is in an excellent location with its easy access to the M1 and just off the main ring road.
Its just the embarrasing inadequacy of the ground thats killing our clubs growth.
It needs sorting.
it probably is, but I wouldn’t build it in Abington Avenue either. I was just pointing out that accessibility seemingly encourages attendance especially from an impulse perspective. As some have said it wouldn’t help those that travel from out of town but it would really depend on the support ratio of those outside and inside the town and the likely impact of location change on each group. Arguably the out of town support are going to considerable effort anyway and are motivated enough to consider the town centre a minor inconvenience. Alternatively, increased accessibility for the more local but less motivated potential support would be increased? I’m just talking off my head, the truth is when you are contemplating spending millions on anything you dont guess, you need to know. That means a hefty research and due diligence bill with every option considered and evaluated prior to implementation. Just like NBC did with the loan? Probably also explains the timelapse with the East Stand, if people are doing their jobs properly.
