Regardless of whether it’s Saturday or the end of the play offs, I’m not sure I can see it happening at PR!
Security will be huge across the lower north and that area would be the main instigators. Plus, the tiers and one way systems won’t make it very feasible! Then the lower Britannia is mainly families who won’t be sprinting on, and largely the same with the lower south stand too.
I might be wrong mind you. |  | | |  |

Waiting for, “and now a special word from an important squad player, #17. Over to you, Ed…” crowd goes wild as he launches into “my name is Edward Ebeneezer Jeremiah Brown….” |
Would need to be a video link-up, he's playing at the New Orleans Festival on Saturday. |  | | |

Heard they're bringing in a serious number of extra stewards for this one. They want to be able to do something post-game on the pitch. |
Not at all surprising. Not to be a bore as I fully understand the appeal behind a pitch invasion but would agree with the club's stance that it's better for the players and staff to come to us via a lap of appreciation rather than being set upon by a load of delirious loons. |  |

Not really sure I agree with the club wanting it to happen? FA Fine, potential player safety issues (for opposition players too), delays any other celebrations planned
, potential bottlenecking of fans trying to get on |
They would definitely rather it didn't happen, no doubt. |  |

McKenna windmilling around the penalty area as Ed plays, Mike O'Leary necking bottles of red. Chaplin being paraded round on Walton's shoulders. Ashton with his tie round his head doing the David Brent dance, addressing his adoring fans. 'Lets be really clear about this, we're coming to get that lot down the road'. Cheers. 'Oh, and let's be even clearer, we had more fans at MK Dons than they did'. Rapturous applause.

Love it! And then right at the end, the finance bloke from the pension fund appears in the shadows, grabs the mic and says “this is a good start. Now do it again.” |  |

If they’re relying on iFollow for the video link, we’re fooked. | |

A pitch invasion would deprive the majority of fans the opportunity to applaud the players on a lap of honour. |
Why?
Pitch would clear and then the players will come out.
Easy. |  |

If we win tomorrow to set up the Exeter game for a potential promotion clincher I imagine the club will put out a strongly worded statement about not going on the pitch. “Player safety, give everyone a chance to enjoy lap of honour…” |
Yeah, like Wrexham did  | |

clearance of the arrangements will be required from Lucan |
From what I recall he barely cleared the advertising boards |  |

Wrexham had a crowd 1/3 the size of what we'll get on Saturday.... |  |

The3y plan to conduct the player awards directly after the game so any pitch invader is not only going to earn themselves a life time ban, but will also get the club a fine from the FA and UEFA and will hinder the whole programme....do the right thing folks. |  |

I’d rather nobody went on, than a few hundred go on and it looks like a measly / tinpot pitch invasion. All or nothing innit. | | | |

Indeed. Reminds me of that Nodge invasion after the play-offs. That just looked ridiculous. |  |

The one away to them lot up the road in the play offs wasn’t a lot of fun. Only highlight was seeing some of their fans nearly her stomped by police horses |
That was pathetic. About 100 fans on the pitch. Cringe.
Mind you the tannoy requested that families stayed off the pitch. Hence why 25,000 obliged. |  | | |

We are a bigger club than that, pitch invasions are for minnows, underdogs celebrating amazing achievements against the odds. Hopefully we do what is expected, but with our history and once proud standing I would personally find it a little embarrassing considering our riches at this level.
Look at our history, yes its a huge relief to be out of this league but lets save proper wild celebrations until we reach our rightful place back in the Premier League. | | | |

not sure it is being a wetty but the club have already made it clear and any invasion would stop a player lap of honour and hinder the awards. Not fair on the vast majority if a few tramps and chavs decided to give it large with a hope of getting one second of footage on soccer am.... | |

Enjoy being miserable from the stands.
The pitch will clear and then the players will come back out, like what happens everywhere else, live a little and let your hair down. | |

When was our last pitch invasion?
I was certainly there for the post Bolton play-off one. Can't remember many, or any since?
The post Gunn/Ullathorne one was fun too. |
There was an anti McGiven one V Swindon 94'. | | | |
