Pitch invasions

It just seems forced at this point. The breaking of the goals the last time seemed completely pointless too.

I get it for the 2012 and 2022 seasons given the way we won, but when the other 2 3rds of the crowd are chanting "off, off, off" at you, maybe just get the fuck off the field so we can have the presentation?

Hopefully no, was almost £300,000 fine last time, this imho was one of the main contributing factors for ST price increases. Next time (if we do it) it will be a significantly larger fine and points deductions, imho it should only be level 1 that get price increases next season as they were culpable

I’m not normally rude to a fellow forum member, but what an absolute croc of shite!!

And if you remember at the final whistle last season, the stewards all stood back and let the pitch invasion happen. They were told not to intervene by the club. The Police surrounded the Villa end.

Nobody is going to stop 1000’s of fans from invading the pitch. Just let it happen. Let the fans get on the pitch. Let them hopefully enjoy another PL title win, a 4th in a row, and a new record. The fans will come off the pitch. And like last season I really don’t think the club gives two fucks about the PL, Masters and their pitch invasion fine.

The goals weren’t broken last (time) season. That was May 2022. There was no trouble last season during the pitch invasion. The chants of off, off…. only started towards the end of the pitch invasion when fans were already coming off the pitch. Why do people not tell the truth when posting about events?

Whether people like it or not, it will happen again, like it has done for the last how many years. It’s now become part and parcel of a possible last day title win. I’m not going to call it a tradition because that would rile some people on here.

And one more point. I’m sure West Ham’s supporters would love to be on the pitch with us if City win the PL title and stop Arsenal from winning the PL title.

They aren't going to stop fans for safety reasons, the booing started immediately from all the stands. I'm sure the club are happy about paying £300,000 fine last season, larger fine this season and possible points deductions. It was great in 2012, its been embarrassing on several occasions since then

The booing didn’t start immediately from all stands. It never does. You must be hearing booing in your head? There was no booing form SSL1 where I was stood last season. Just 1000’s of City fans heading down the steps towards the pitch, and the stewards standing aside to let the fans get on to the pitch. City fans on all the stands were celebrating the title win and City coming back to win 3-2 after the final whistle, not booing. The booing normally starts after 5-10 minutes, with chants of off, off, off, as the fans start walking back to the stands.

I stand corrected, but I don’t remember the club announcing a fine amount after the match.

As for points deduction, what are you on about? There hasn’t been a points deduction yet for a pitch invasion in any division, let alone in the PL. Stop making things up.

Like I said, try and stop it. Trying to stop a pitch invasion causes more problems. Let the fans get on the pitch, celebrate, get off the pitch, and the trophy presentation will start.

Fan of clubs that have been promoted up and down the country have invaded pitches to celebrate promotion. There hasn’t been any news of arrests, problems or disorder during the those pitch invasions.
 
Tends to be the middle class types who are bit entitled these days, £100 on the new players edition shirt that came out that week and on the pitch for selfies.

We got a suspended ban for the pitch invasion in 1993.

I’ve never taken a selfie on the pitch. I may have kissed the turf, and taken a little piece of the turf/a few blades of grass, but that is about it. Then I’ve gone back to my seat as quickly as possible, ready for the trophy presentation.
