I thought I would give the Northam fan zone a try today and think it worked well as pre and post match entertainment. The Moonrunners band were pretty decent and got some atmosphere going, even after the match.
Not sure why people were congregating outside the fan zone in the rain as there was space inside and under cover - and that is what caused the blockages.
The biggest issue with the fan zone is that it is not meant to be the highlight of the day, which today it was!
Fair play to the club for trying to improve the matchday experience.
