can u sit down please 0 Posted April 30, 2010 I have heard a very strong, well its not a rumour but more of an action that NCFC and the police will be taking against those who invaded the pitch after the Gillingham game.Every person has been identified through the plods videoing the events and those that turn up for the Carlisle match will be taken from there seats and facing a banning order.So if you were one of those, as hard as it may be, i''d prob stay away! Pathetic if you ask me. Yes rules are rules but FFS, what harm was done? The lap of honour still went ahead! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Aren''t you the guy thats normally good with the rumours?I hope this isn''t the case, I don''t agree with what they did but a banning order is a tad excessive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E Block Loyal 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Total overkill if true, they didn''t hurt anybody did they?Whatever people think about the people who invaded the pitch, it''s fair to say that they are part of a group of fans that contribute to the atmosphere at games. Will the club not be happy until the attendance at Carrow Road is full of families with horns and wigs?There are less and less groups of lads at the football who, whether you like it or not, turn up after a few beers and get behind the side. Banning everyone who went on the opitch will further dilute the atmosphere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ricky knight 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Another case of the club putting distance between themselves and the fans, its the end of season ffs celebration time, i am sure running on the pitch to celebrate will mess the pitch up for August. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CambridgeCanary 0 Posted April 30, 2010 It is true that no harm was done except to the dignity of a few people forever immortalised om YouTube as running round aimlessly and looking like braindead morons. But I guess they have no dignity to harm in the first place.BUT, very clear warnings wee given repeatedly not to invade the pitch. Everyone who went on the pitch knew that they were acting against the Club''s instuctions and that they were committing a criminal offence. They went onto the pitch knowing that there could be consequences.So, no one can complain if there are consequences. They knew the risk they were taking and chose to go on the pitch. Tough.Choices have consequences. You make a choice and you live with what happens as a result. That is how things are in the grown up world.If you can''t do the time don''t do the crime.

Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted April 30, 2010 Invading the pitch is stupid and moronic but banning orders is way too far. The club could certainly handle it a lot better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yellow 63 25 Posted April 30, 2010 maybe people were a bit niave in running on but no real harm done,especially with another home game to come.Wonder if the fans of Newcastle,Bournmouth etc are looking at banning orders ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CharlieFarlie 0 Posted April 30, 2010 I hope that this in not the case, how are they going to do this , as I sit in the upper Barclay I saw dozens of people come up into the stand below ( next to teh snakepit, and gather on teh steps , obviously from other parts of the barclay or may have just walked in the gorund as the gates would have been open ! Are they going to have a most wanted list of photos posted at each turnstyle ???And what after the trophey has been presented and the players have walked round the pitch dispapeared down the tunnel , then a few thousand invade then ! are they goind to indentify every single one and ban them all .....Cant see any of this happening really , Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are pitch invasions up and down the land every year at the end of the season, should they all be banned?I really cannot understand how any supporter can consider a ban to be a just punishment. It was over in the blink of an eye and made no difference whatsoever to the lap of honour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

William Darby 0 Posted April 30, 2010 It''s obviously crap. The videoing was done as a precaution in case trouble broke out. Plus if they have identified everybody they would''ve contacted them and punished them in writing after being sure of the identities of each of the fans.They won''t and can''t wait for them to turn up and then accuse them and throw them out. What the police and stewards going to have a clipboard with still pictures of the fans so they know who they are? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I''m not a fan of pitch invading but a banning order on those who went on the pitch would be awfully OTT and would put shame on our club and it''s board, however I don''t think the club will go to such lengths and as I remeber it was mainly fans from the snakepit area of the ground who went onto the pitch, an area of the ground where some of our most vocal and passionate supporters sit, do we really want to get rid of fellow fans for such a minor offence which ultimately caused no harm?
