Andi Peters on the right there gripping you up Alf ! He`s having a wry smile at your pleas of mitigation ? Realistically , we`re all on the pitch after the Cardiff game , whatever the outcome, but we need to stay off till then cos we ain`t got the money to pay the fines , fans have been awesome this season , just like Rooney and the players , proud to be a Ram , we`ll fight to the end , COYRs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of the season, after the whistle, fans can and should flood onto the pitch in numbers. I've always been a fan of an end-of-season pitch invasion. Usually it is to remind the people in the boardroom who really owns the club. In this case I think that point will be 20x more poignant. During the season, no. During games, definitely no.

Mucker1884 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I fear we may get ridiculed invading the pitch at season's end, with cries of "But you have won nothing"! I didn't go on v Southampton... we'd won nothing... plus I was stuck at the very back of the SE Corner busting a lung trying (and eventually succeeding) getting the "Idiakez" chant going. I didn't go on after Brighton... we'd won nothing... and I was in Spain anyway! ? In fact, I haven't been on the pitch for literally decades, and never at PPS. But I say this now... IF we stay up... I will be on that pitch after the Cardiff game... and regardless of the snipes from elsewhere in the football fraternity, I would say we have very much won something! One of the biggest victories in English football history! Not all victories come with a trophy! ? Tombo, GB SPORTS and Wistaston Ram 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Ram Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 More stewards, with better training. When we scored against brum, the last pitch invader was a big lad that took 5 minutes to jog over from the north stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thatcher had a big hand in all the Football hooligan stuff, She hated having to deploy more Police when they could be used to quell the Britsh public, I remember the Luton Town owner with his high fences at Kenilworth Rd, Ken Bates electrifying fences at Stamford Bridge, It doesn't matter what age or gender you were, Able bodied of not, Football supporters were seen as fare game by the establishment, Plenty of inocent fans ended up with criminal records for trumped up charges, A good mate when we played Sunderland when they had 6K fans as Jeremy Kieth thought it was a great idea to give them more tickets, Where fighting was all through the game he got a 3 year ban for being hit in the face, It took him 2 seasons to get the ban overturned and a lot of money defending himself. uttoxram75 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England Ram Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I've never been on the pitch and think pitch invasions during the season are stupid.

That was extremely close to me, I don't know if the stewards found the guy in the end SW Upper is the best, good view, good laugh, sit down if you need to, stand up if you want to.

Like to think we add a few decibels to the South Stand together with those in the East Stand opposite.

LN747 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 Remotely fit stewards would help - or how about using the lads that run on the pitch as stewards - that way they know they are allowed on - reversed psychology - and wont be that bothered aboot running on.

Ram1988 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I really don't understand what the idiot who ran on the pitch tonight was thinking as we was searching for a equaliser and building momentum. He should be banned and never come back. Ram@Lincoln and Nishfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was Derby, they should have pushed him in with the Millwall fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
