Pitch invasion

[blue44]

You missed out breaking in

thats what i meant , invading sounded better than breaking in.

I'm sure they love having to be completely surrounded by security and physically bundled off a pitch while hundreds of strangers tap them on the head and claw at them. The ones that sprint off the pitch and down the tunnel show just how much they love it

Indeed it was more of a why the fuck do we put our own players under pressure and make them question the club due to fans

The Referee slipped up by blowing early without telling the players what he was going do. If he got them towards the tunnel then blew it would of been a lot safer. I've seen other officials do that.

Unfortunately I was the fan that ran on when we scored the third.

I'm embarrassed for myself and the embarrassment it's caused my family. It was a spur of the moment thing and I'd change it if I could go back.

Is there anyone at the club I can get in touch with to issue an apology.

are you sure about that? looks like he patted him on the head to me and the goalie didn't seem bothered by that. The pushing guy was a wanker and needs banning, no need for that. Then the third one that looked like caused the most damage was an accidental collision with a guy walking backwards with his hands out filming around him.

I'm watching the same grainy video that you are so no, not 100% sure.

I'd forgotten the guy walking backward, I was thinking about the young lad(?) who seemed to throw himself at the stewards legs as the 3rd idiot. The guy walking backward with the phone camera was possibly deliberately being a dick as he swung his left arm out and clipped the goalie in the face, whether he did it on purpose or not is impossible to say from the video.

Infesting would have been a better choice of words :)

It was about violent as Keown was when Van Nistleroy missed the penalty for utd that time. Not condoning it as it is wrong and you shouldn’t intimidate players, but the Keown incident was seen as hilarious by anyone who didn’t support the shit bags… just putting it in perspective.

I can see what you are saying, but it is totally different. The players have a right to be on the pitch and anything which takes place on there during a game can be dealt with by the referee and FA. It was inevitable that fans were going to get on the pitch yesterday, but they should not intimidate the players, no matter how minor. We had won the game and everybody was ecstatic, so why do it? That was mindless stupidity and the idiot concerned should be dealt with. Could
lead to consequences for the club. I put a like against your post because you didn’t condone what happened yesterday.

Yeah, it does sound odd, but perhaps the guy who ran on during the game was escorted off and arrested, hence the different treatment to the rest of the lower tier!

They were escorting one guy along the front of the CB stand with 2 stewards before the final whistle.
What surprised me at the final whistle were the 20 or so police personnel with helmets and gear lined up in the aisle and almost the second the ref blew they were on the pitch in formation.

You're not getting your walker back, that's punishment enough.

I don't think they are drama queens at all,what gets in the minds of people that decide to confront players and break a crossbar? Don't mind the pitch invasion at all, just enjoy it without the anger.

That was probably a grand total of about eight people out of around 10,000 on the pitch. 9,992 people were just joyously celebrating in a fun and harmless way.
