See you on the pitch?

[Deforest]

What's the form?

Does being certain of a play-off place mean no invasion next weekend thus saving the pitch for our champagne football when it matters?

Will the gimps save it until after the home leg, or be naughty and trash the pitch at the end of the regular season?

I recall we boo'd them recently.

What's the form?

I'd say, never go on the pitch EVER. The FA have been taking a hard line on it after some chav at Peterborough lamped a Rochdale player when they celebrated their promotion from League 2.

Would look a bit stupid if something happened and they cost us a play-off place thanks to a points deduction...

 

[red_outlaw]

They should set the police dogs on anyone who tries to.

 

[JtheNorwegianRed]

wouldn't that be extremely harsh?! Point deduction if some people decide to run on the pitch to celebrate an excellent season with their team?!
When did punk rock become so safe? when did the scene become a joke? The kids who used to live for beer and speed, now want their fries and coke...

 

[barky]

It would have to be a points deduction that's more than you'd get for going into administration for us to drop out of the playoffs. Never going to happen.

We shouldn't go on the pitch though, there's another game to play.

 

[William.]

The only reason to get on the pitch is promotion, not getting in the playoffs, Villa looked like muppets when the ran on the pitch the other month, dont get me wrong if our last home game got us promotion I would be on there ( It would hurt jumping from top of Bridgeford mind) but if anyone does it at the end of this season the snipers on top of the BC stand should pop them off 1 by 1.

 

[Tutts]

I think pitch parties after promotion are fine but with another game to play, it's a definite no no.

 

[red_outlaw]

wouldn't that be extremely harsh?! Point deduction if some people decide to run on the pitch to celebrate an excellent season with their team?!

That's the whole point though. It stops the players celebrating in the way they wish to and therefore spoils the day for everyone else.

 

[Jon NFFC]

and the womens cup final, not that most of us are bothered.

 

[Hoax]

you only run on the pitch if you are actually promoted

 

[JtheNorwegianRed]

That's the whole point though. It stops the players celebrating in the way they wish to and therefore spoils the day for everyone else.

Fair point!
Talked to some old timers in the pub, the night before the last game of last season... They were very "strict" about us not going on to the pitch, because then the team wouldn't be able to come out after the game! Which would be a shame... Nice farewell to Ian Breckin!

I think pitch parties after promotion are fine but with another game to play, it's a definite no no.

Absolutely spot on. Might also ruin the pitch for the play-off game at home

 

[The Vicar]

Going onto the pitch is selfish and childish and illegal. It's not big and its not clever.

 

[T.B.T.]

I agree here. Pitch invasions for any occasion other than a Promotion Party are silly and rather embarrassing.

I fully expect the red and white stripy tape to be out in force at the Plymouth game.

 

[Deforest]

They should set the police dogs on anyone who tries to.

.

That would be quite entertaining.

I know police dogs are usually trained to bite and hold on to an arm but wouldn't it be more fun if they hung on to the gimps knackers/tits?

I'd stay to watch that.

 

[JoeBaker]

I can definitely see a pitch invasion in a 2nd leg home play-off game if we were to make it too Wembley but for Plymouth can't see why anybody would want to go on.

 

[lemonforest]

i dunno guys, those plymouth bunch are nothing but trouble, could stir up a few disagreements.

 

[Redwalton]

and the womens cup final, not that most of us are bothered.

i'll deffo invade the pitch for this one,hopefully not during the first half with my tackle hanging out.

 

[winnits]

I'd be very surprised if there isn't an attempt at least.

I shan't be partaking mainly because I'd probably break my legs if I tried, even with the helpful shelf above me lol

That said, I made it on to the hallowed turf after the Yeovil game

 

[Jonathan]

I think it's best saved for the second leg of the play-offs IF we win the tie.

Getting to Wembley would be a much bigger achievement than beating Plymouth to secure third place!

 

[RICH1977]

save it for when we win the play off semi

 

[Annesley Red]

we will go on the pitch after the Wembley game and dig the boddy thing up by the look of things. Make a decent veg patch ?

 

[incapable hulk]

I hope theres a pitch invasion, as it means i'll be able to get out of the ground and home quicker if everyone else is on the pitch.
