18 fantastic photos of Blackpool fans soaking up pre-match atmosphere for homecoming anniversary celebration

Blackpool fans packed out Bloomfield Road to celebrate the recent anniversary of their homecoming fixture.

On March 9, 2019, Seasiders supporters ended their four-year period of boycott following the removal of the Oyston ownership, with Simon Sadler ultimately taking over the reins.

There was an attendance of 15,871 for a meeting with Southend United, as a late Taylor Moore own goal snatched an equaliser as the game finished in a 2-2 draw.

Last month, Blackpool announced Saturday’s meeting with Burton Albion would mark the seven year anniversary, with ticket deals made available.

Seasiders fans certainly got behind this, as a sold out home end watched on as CJ Hamilton snatched a late winner in a crucial 1-0 victory over the Brewers.

Here’s the best photos from the pre-match fan zone Saturday afternoon:
