On the pitch on the pitch

[Brighton Breezy]

I think Gus is too professional to allow champagne and laps of honour tonight. After all, we still have the job of winning the league.

So a good old pitch invasion wouldn't hurt.

 

[Easy 10]

SCR said this morning that if we win tonight the players will be doing a lap of honour.

But presumably not if everyones on the pitch.

I can understand why so many want to run on the pitch, and let's face it pitch invasions are FUN, but I genuinely feel tonight is not the night for it. Let the players enjoy the promotion and save the invasion for the title either at the SCC or Hudds game. I think that the Hudds game provides the perfect opportunity for everyone to really get involved as we say goodbye to the Withdean and we can pretty much do what we want in an end of season celebration.

I'd pretty much agree with that.

Tonight - if we win pitch invasion
Southampton - when we win championship pitch invasion
Huddersfield - lap of honour, trophy presentation followed by pitch invasion.

Marvellous scenes!!!

Spot on!

Course we should invade the pitch as EVERY club does when they seal promotion. I remember a massive one at Wolves a few yrs back and then they did a presentation type thing with the players and MM from somewhere in the stands / balcony type thing. I must have missed the all these teams getting docked points - laughable some of the comments on here!

ON THE PITCH!

this one?

I was there!

Not on the pitch - it was a bit of a trek from the upper tier!

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I would love to do a Pitch Invasion tonight, screw the lap of honor till Scumhampton at home when we've won the title.

Exactly.

And nothing anyone says on NSC is going to stop people invading the pitch if we win tonight. And if you cant beat 'em...

I do fear for a bit of pitch invasion overkill here. Its going to be a bit daft to have one tonight if we go up, one if we secure the Title against Southampton, and then yet another one after the final game. I'm not sure the groundstaff, or Gus for that matter, will be particularly pleased about having several thousand fans trampling all over the pitch twice in a row when we've got games coming up (not that it'll matter for the final game obviously). We'll look a right bunch of goons invading the pitch three games in a row.

Save it for Hudds I reckons.

We will definitely won't do a pitch invasion against Scumhampton, the police will be out in force for this one!

Completely agree with this. We don't want to dilute the fun.

 

[Insel affe]

Most comments have a point on here that I agree with, ie Southampton Police issue.

But If we win tonight yeah why not get on the damn pitch, because lets say they give us the trophy at the start or end of the game against Huddersfield or Southampton and we lose !! I would feel like a fake dancing on the pitch after a defeat of any manner !!

Enjoy the moment people get on the damn pitch and have a sing song as BRIGHTON ARE BACK ELLO ELLO

 

[Notters]

I really do think if we have more than one pitch invasion, we could face a points deduction.

When have you ever seen the police manage to stop a pitch invasion when EVERYONE tries to get on? They cant, it's impossible, they always just allow it (usually after cracking a few of the nutters that run on first). They'll just stand in front of the Southampton fans so they cant get on.

is this REALLY something that could happen?
