Brian Lomax fan zone officially opened at Sixfields
Northampton Town were delighted to officially open the new Brian Lomax Fan Zone at Sixfields on Saturday.
The opening, performed by Brian's wife Catherine, took place before the Cardiff City game and saw Catherine unveil a plaque in memory and recognition of Brian's work, outside of Carr's Bar.
The Brian Lomax Fan Zone, created in partnership between the club and the Fan Advisory Board has seen a number of additions to the matchday experience at Sixfields.
A new covered area has been constructed outside Carr's Bar with new branded furniture, an outside bar, increased food and drink kiosks, new lighting, new TV screens and a permanent location for the DJ.
"We were delighted to welcome Catherine to the game on Saturday," said Fan Advisory Board Chairman Tom Cliffe.
"The area has been created through a partnership between the club and the Fan Advisory Board and we have already had some fantastic feedback.
"It was fitting that Catherine was at the game on Saturday to perform the official opening and the area is a wonderful tribute to Brian and his pioneering work to ensure that supporters are properly represented in the running of their football clubs, something we hold very dear here at Northampton Town."
"We have worked closely with the Fan Advisory Board and it was an honour to have Catherine at the game to perform the opening," added Chief Executive James Whiting.
"I know Catherine enjoyed the day, performing the opening, meeting up with old friends and we are proud to have Brian's name honoured in this way.
"With the opening of the LCS Stand and now the opening of the Brian Lomax Fan Zone, 2025 has seen a lot of significant improvements in the matchday experience that we are very proud of, and we hope supporters enjoy the new facilities when coming to Sixfields."
