Away fans yesterday

Does anyone know why the club moved the away fans closer to the family stand yesterday?

Good to see them a bit closer to our fans but it did make the corner look very empty.

To allow on the day sales in the home area without having to open red seats ...risk assessment was that Northampton fans were very low risk.

A good set of fans who celebrated their goal like it won them the F A cup.
Very colourful in their team shirts and seemed to behave themselves alongside our young fans.
Best wishes to Northampton next season.

My mate bumped into one on his way to Barry Island station at around 5 pm. He had had enough when they went 3-0 down so fancied an hour down the Island. He got the train from Grangetown to the Island had a quick look round and a cup of coffee and his photo taken in the Gavin and Stacey cut out at Marcos before getting the train back to Grangetown. Said he had a good day out :lol:

That makes sense, I was just wondering what the reason was but thanks for explaining.

Agree with others, their fans were great despite what's been a disappointing season for them.
