alanharper Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 If fans wanted to get on they will do. Not worth the ban really for celebrating the third goal in a dead rubber against Reading though. There were riot police lined up in front of the Palace fans in 2010 - who just stood and watched as they ran past them onto the pitch sparking ugly scenes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanzaroteowl Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Stewards are pretty much a waste of time They are only used as they are a lot cheaper than having police in the ground and it covers the Club if anything happens It's proved time and again across the country that they can do little to stop determined fans getting on the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsyowl Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 back in the day it was quite normal to go on pitch to celebrate a goal, did it many times last time I did it was at Walsall on Boxing Day season we came up last, then it was on the website if you did it again you'd get banned so I haven't done it since I can see why they don't want you going on pitch but does my head in when jobsy stewards get involved & do whatever they can to stop fans & players celebrating together, get a life! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody that goes on the pitch nowadays is a bell pipe! Stewards have a job to do and they generally do a great job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was ashamed to be a Wednesday fan that day, I think they were a bit dumb running on the pitch as they secured their safety but there were no need for that Wednesday fan to smash that woman in the face! Was shocked at how little attention this incidence got, never heard anyone mention it depute it happening in front of 30,000 people. Wasn't until a end of season review the following year in the Guardian I heard a journalist mention it in passing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Genuinely dont think I could be arsed, in my mid 40's and takes me all my time to stand up without making a noise nowadays. Stewards are a necessity as there will always be some morons who spoil it for the majority of actual fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belfast Owl 2 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Yeah they would. Always seems to be some numpty who wants to run on and celebrate with the players. The players clearly don't want them there either most of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always went on the pitch years back and it never seemed a big deal. At the back end of the 84 season I think I went on the pitch six or seven times home and away Times have changed but I think most would only run on of it mattered. Like a promotion run in or a win that's kept us up. Doubt anyone would have bothered Saturday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Toni Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Difficult for stewards as they’re only doing the job they’re told and to fall in line with FA rules. If fans flooded the pitch regularly they’d probably get a right talking to so they can’t win either way. Some seem to have ideas above their station though. Poor waif of a girl who’s the steward near me on the South wouldn’t be able to stop a paper bag from blowing onto the pitch, never mind a fan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game against Wycombe when we won promotion was such a great day and it’s brilliant to see supporters celebrating with players on the pitch.

SiJ Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Is this one of those philosophical questions? You know, a bit like if a tree falls and no one is there, does it make a sound? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalowlisback Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I would every time. It's the same with roads and rivers, if there is no fence or barrier, I just jump straight in. Proper badass. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
