The fanzone is within the grounds of the stadium, safety certificate only allows a certain number of people within the ground during a game. |  |

Plus the Fanzone is almost full to capacity pre-match with people actually going to the game. How do you get them all out by 2.45, and then get the Fanzone viewers in? |  |

In that case, could the club apply to extend the safety certificate to cover additional people in the fanzone? As the OP suggests, it seems to be something of a missed opportunity. |  | |  |

I wonder how possible it would be to stick something in Alderman Park across the road but that would require co-operation from local residents, the council and the police having to worry about another couple of thousand people milling about. |  |

We’re not even allowed to fill every single seat in the ground so… Also, see ITFC_Forever’s post. |  |

Well although my idea has already been discredited in terms of the fanzone attendance, surely you limit the number going in according to how many fanzone dcreen tickets sold.. Using completely made up figures Fanzone capacity 3000 Screen ticket sold 1000 Match ticket holders max 2000 And assuming there might be some walk ups , let them in from 2.45 as the area empties on 1 in 1 out? |  | |  |

The other thing that would be a problem would be the price charged to fans in the fanzine to watch the game when 30 yards away other Town fans are paying premium prices to watch the same game. But as you rightly say, it’s a non starter. |  |

I'll just add one more thing and it will be shot down as not comparable but when a fan base becomes obsessive it's just about being there... Toronto maple leafs pack out maple leaf Gardens outside their home arena in the freezing cold just to be there watching with other Leafs!... I know I'm dreaming but I just want this to go on forever! |  | |  |
