Hirsty The Blue 94 Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I reckon a pitch invasion is only for those sort of dramatic last minute moments. Why would you run on the pitch after a 1-1 at home to Donny when we were promoted 3 weeks earlier?
The Year Of The Fox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I'll be on. just not from L block. They'll have that well under wraps especially being so close to thevaway end. I've valready discovered my alternative entry point
Corky Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I think there will be. I hope we wait until the game is over, unlike certain other teams, especially if the result matters to the opposition.
Guest Col city fan Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I reckon there will be one. I won't run on personally cos I aint 16 anymore.
Fox92 Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 There could be one, especially if we're confirmed as promoted or even champions at as home game. Can't say personally. I'll probably be that buzzing I won't know what's going on. More of a chance of me just getting on my seat I guess (living life on the edge).
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 When we went up against Brighton there was the feeling that if we went on the pitch the club would get fined which obviously we could ill-afford at that time. The only reason they want to keep people off the pitch these days is to have a sponsor-laden trophy presentation on an erected stage on the pitch, it's typical of corporate modern football. Get on the pitch then either back into the stands after a while for the trophy presentation, or stuff their little podium and fireworks and let them lift the trophy from the directors box with us still on the pitch!
suffolk fox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Bearing in mind the fa and the football league do not like us. Since administration. Why give them a reason or an excuse to fine us or deduct points from us if we do invade the pitch? Let the players do a lap of honour with the trophy and support them from the stands just as good. I would not bet against the football league to deduct enougth points from us so we finish third hence the lottery of the play offs. Something neither the club or us as fans could afford.
The Year Of The Fox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 They wouldn't deduct points for a pitch invasion. No way.
Vlad the Fox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Promotion v Burnley I was on the pitch with my mum. Survival v oxford they opened the gates with the police and stewards helping us onto the pitch. Last match at filbert street v spurs we were stood on the grass verge waiting for the game to finish. All moments of great celebration and relief, in the case of spurs remembrance and reflection. It was a great feeling to be on the pitch, on the turf I have spent years watching the team I love. Children, teenagers and adults all sharing the same emotions. I've also invaded f1 and Le Mans tracks as well as cricket and rugby. I'm sure as a real youngster I've been on the Twickenham pitch after Dusty destroyed someone. I don't think there is anything chavy about it. Sports fans have invaded playing areas for decades in celebration and for me it is a desire to get as close to the action as I'll ever get, let my hair down and celebrate with fans and players. It has to be a spontaneous thing on the day promotion/championship is secured otherwise it will never happen, the club can then have the presentation against Doncaster with all the fans in the stand. Hopefully the powers that be will see some common sense and realise how big the moment is for the supporters, cordon off the away fans with stewards (though no one should be bothered with them) letting the fans enjoy themselves and for the players to come out and take the plaudits in the directors seats. It would make some great images to publish back in Thailand. But please can someone tell them to lose 'simply the best' and 'rocking all over the world' at two hundred decibels and let us sing and chant because that music absolutely drains me and just suffocates the atmosphere and bludgeons the supporters to rhythmic clapping. But until then we still have a job to to. Three or four more wins and I think we will be about there. COME ON CITY

As long as it is after the game, they won't do anything. We could cite plenty of examples for pitch invasions in similar circumstances with no consequences.
sylofox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Different times and laws to when we went on the pitch in the past. All I will say is invade for promotion you won't see the trophy if we win it. Plus all of you that do are you going to fork out for damage to the pitch and the fine the club may get. Oh and your fines on top.
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Seems to be mostly just kids that want to run on the pitch
LeicesterBran Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I definitely run onto the pitch. A invasion will probably happen if you ask me.

Stop the players taking the accolades they and we have strived for all season.

Ah, come on! 'Rockin All Over The World' is part of tradition for me! As someone who started supporting Leicester in the O'Neill years that song is synonymous with Leicester success. I remeber it blaring out at Filbert Street after we'd reached another Wembley final or won a cup so for me I'd live to hear it at the KP with us having just won promotion/the league.
Guest Col city fan Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Fine you have your party on the pitch. Stop the players taking the accolades they and we have strived for all season. oh be quiet Welly!
sylofox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I definitely run onto the pitch. A invasion will probably happen if you ask me. If 500 do it infront of you. Hope you all do it and get arrested. There is a law against it now just hope you brave boys are big enough to do it. Oh and the law don't shut this place down for allowing you to organise it.
Fox92 Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I don't know why people are saying "kids" or "if you're big enough", I guarantee grown men would join in because all of the emotion and joy of seeing something you believe in succeed is just brilliant. Doesn't matter what age you are.
sylofox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 oh be quiet Welly! We know you won't. As you will be out of breath dreaming we will sing JET for next season lol

Doesn't matter what age you are. Having seen promotion at Filbo with an invasion. Then at wembly I know which is better, now double wembley as in four sides of the ground. Stay off the pitch leave the players to tour the ground.
Hungry Hungry Fox Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 Yeah leave pitch invasions to those clubs with fans that can't control themselves

Stay off the pitch leave the players to tour the ground. Oh yeah, I wasn't suggesting otherwise from a personal point of view. But from a fan point of view, I wouldn't doubt it.
THEBIGJOHNSTEADER; Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I'm too old for pitch invasions (I'm over 8) but whilst all the young'uns are on the pitch a group of us will definately peel back our foreskins and jump up a down (a bit like the Poznan). And whichever of you bastards got me arrested at the Charlton match, ITS ONLY SKIN!!!
Dan Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 I want to but I can see steps being taken for it to not happen, and those steps proving successful.
connorlcfc Posted 14 March 2014 Posted 14 March 2014 highly doubt they will let us, we all know how strict they are when it comes to pitch invasions!
