Punishment seems harsh IMO, no need for a banning order surely?

Causing a potential significant health and safety issue by pretending to be someone who has training in said issues could have been very dangerous, I think the club acted appropriately in this case....

100%.

With the very public security threats right now, acting/dressing up in this way could have huge issues.

3 years appears lenient.

Reminds me of a story my dad told me about a couple of his workmates back in the day... they used to get into Wembley (including a Cup Final one year) by putting on brown overalls and turning up at the delivery entrance carrying a crate of bottled beer on their shoulders; used to just get waved through, no questions asked.

Not to mention the issues with overcrowding in stadiums. The club will only be licensed to have so many people in the ground, and the club could be significantly legally exposed if it turned out there were more people in the ground than they expected.

This isn't a game. Well, football is a game. But managing a stadium safely isn't.

I agree. Not really hardened criminals are they? Should just have been kicked out and told "bad luck."

Glory hunters. Should've done the hard yards in L1, then they'd have been able to get tickets.

Well quite, and just imagine if someone had mistaken their high vis jackets for a fire, there could have been a stampede and everyone would have died. Throw away the key I say

I know of at least one Town fan, banned from football at the time, who got into Wembley for the playoff final with his face painted and wearing a blue and white wig.

If they were streamers with 1 million followers doing it for a video, they’d have been invited back as special guests.

I'd rather trust official stewards if there was an incident rather than two randoms who just happen to rock up wanting to watch the game dressed in hi-vis...

I think the greater issue is the people they have on security. If they had attempted and failed they wouldn't have a banning order. That they were successful has caused the serverity of the sentence and that is to save the clubs blushes.
