I've never been to Wolves, Ipswitch or Cardiff, so can't really comment on those.

Hull last season was quite vociferous (with added coinings, and nazi salutes), but the two seasons prior were both rather placid there.

Leeds has had its moments, but acres of empty seats there don't help.

I wouldn't really say any of the grounds I've been to in the last few seasons have been particularly fearsome.

Sheff U can be quite loud and in-your-face, if they're playing well, but they suffer more with Moaning Bastard syndrome than any ground I've ever visited. When they're good they very good, when they're bad they're awful.
