Yes it's bad inside the box, but when you get out into the stands the atmosphere is amazing. Actaully Norwich was voted the best atmosphere in the league at the Championship awards.

not much to add to my comments from last season.There's a great riverside development of cafes and bars all with level access next to the station on the way up to the ground. Inside ground remains great,nice food (Delia??) took an hour to get away after because of traffic but still a 9/10

Comments :Struggled a bit to find a parking spot due to late arrival, it's 6hrs drive from Morecambe!parked on yellow lines with blue badge.Plenty of pubs nearby in front of station on the river. Most seem away friendly. In ground access level after slight hill to ground.Great view in front of own fans next to the pitch,toilets clean and not far. A lot of congestion after game so maybe leave early, unlike us overall a 9 out of ten

Any members who missed out on joining the Hat Trick Plan earlier in the year are still able to obtain tickets. These are subject to availability, but due to increased capacity in our newly opened facilities, there should be tickets available for most if not all of the home games.
Customers can obtain tickets by calling 0870 444 1902 and speaking to the Disabled Supporter Liaison Officer, Linzi Flatt.

Any ambulant disabled seats which are sold in the Norwich Union Community Stand are accessible via a lift situated next to Exit Gate 17.

Comments :
Well at least now the disabled area is now finished but I must say that the place where I was sitting was a long way up considering that steps are not very easy for me. however I cant complain cos my ticket was given to me only the day before because I got confused on how tickets were allocated to disabled members which I feel needs to be explained abit more detail.

Might seem biased, being a home supporter, but I will agree to the present situation of being closed off from the atmosphere.
We are about to embark on rebuilding the South Stand, which includes the disabled area. We sincerely hope that the club have listened to our comments, and give us an open area when we are re-located.
Watch this space.

This is the worst disabled area because it is totally enclosed and it feels like you are watching it at home with the TV on a low volume. If you want to fall asleep during a football match come to this ground. I feel sorry for the season ticket holders that dont get to away games because they probably dont have an atmosphere.
