Pitch Invaders

I can’t believe how many still condone it and pass it off as harmless, this kind of behaviour costs the club thousands in fines, encourages heavy handing policing to mostly innocent fans and gives the perfect excuse to reduce ticket allocations to our away following. These idiots are causing ongoing problems for the club and the rest of us fans.

Having seen this trend come and go since the late 60s I find it hard to get angry about a few people just running on the grass.

Now if someone is attacked or damage done that's a different matter but a few kids running on the grass at the end?

What's more cringeworthy than kids holding up cards asking for shirts to me is adults staying behind at the end of the season for a 'lap of honour' when nothing has been won. I can understand kids and the occasional grown up wanting autographs etc but I just don't get the lap. What's it all about?

It's not a lap of honour though. It's for the players to acknowledge the fans

It's not really a lap of honour at the end of a regular match is it, more just a thanks for enduring another match gesture 😁

Knob head.

It's against the law. You encourage your child to do it and social services should be required to pay you a visit for bad parenting. They do it for a lot less.

I had the pleasure of having kids next to me at the Preston game with those signs begging for shirts which i know is not the same but I can't stand it. It also looked like they were my kids which irritated me even more.

I think it needs to be stopped before some one gets hurt or damage done…

I agree about the cringy signs though..
 
Crikey
’someone might get hurt’
What have we become

My suggestion to some people is - please don’t leave your home and also make sure it is impenetrable to others.
It really can be dangerous out there
FMTTM will keep you amused

I don‘t think it has ever been acceptable to assault anyone.
Been going for over 55 years and personally I don’t think I’ve ever seen a player assaulted.
Seen some on TV - partic last season

To help you out here.
I sit in the family Zone, have done since the last Premier league appearance.
Not once has any of these morons running onto the pitch , child or adult, came from our section.
It has always been either the West Side of the North stand or from the south Stand.( or away end)

To be fair those in the south who go on the pitch probably don't realise there is a football pitch there.
