Xero Tolerance.
During our game on Saturday against Stoke City a child entered the field of play while the match was in progress, trivialising the importance of the game to our fans, town, players and management.
He was encouraged to do so by his father who recorded the incident on his mobile phone.
On returning to his father our staff asked that they exit the stadium, only to be subject to abusive and threatening behaviour.
Entering the pitch while the game is in progress will not be tolerated.
Abusive and threatening behaviour to our staff will not be tolerated.
To enter the pitch at any time is a criminal offence as is abusive and threatening behaviour.
The father and child have been identified and with immediate effect the father is banned from the Riverside Stadium for life.
We will encourage the police to take further action.
After the game four further incursions took place by children. All of whom have been identified and whose parents face banning orders from the Riverside
