Would fans run on the pitch if there were no stewards?

It’s called passion. 

 

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. 

Not really passion though is it?  Especially the ones who wait 10 minutes or so, then run onto the pitch when they realise no other supporters have been arrested yet....

 

Yeah, look at me - I'm stood on grass, top of the world Mama, Top of the World.

Exactly!! 

 

Carlisle last minute winner - passion in the stands amongst fans

 

Pitch invasions - mostly a load of backward part timers

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

Correct especially as they aren’t allowed to clobber anybody. until they are on the pitch.

Maybe the stewards are there to stop Pudil doing his old 'wait til we score, then quickly put on an orange polo shirt and comedy 1970s sunglasses and pretend to be in the crowd' routine. The card!

 

(Stewards in this photo want firing, evidently.)

Who would want to run onto the pitch after a season like this. 

I'd expect most people (who aren't drunk) to run away from Hillsborough. 

 

Then again the price for running on the pitch is a lifetime ban so I was pretty bloody tempted in November and December before Carlos was vanquished...

If it wasn’t for the stewards I would immediately run on to the pitch at the start of each game. Upon kick off we lock horns like two stags and maintain this for 90 minutes plus injury time in a state of equal yet opposite pressure.

 

Why do you ask.

End if season it should be controlled but allowed get the players off the pitch let the fans have a run round its an enjoyable thing to do,  then get them off the pitch and let the players walk round waving. 

Trying to stop it just causes unnecessary problems.
