Gemmel Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 As fantastic as a season we have had, I am assuming there won't be a pitch invasion? Would be a tad embarrassing IMO (Although perhaps not as embarrassing as Readings) Additionally - We might get an insight into some players futures, based on their reactions during a lap of honour.

Maybe we should scrap some tickets together for our body language experts on the forum and then we might have all the answers sunday night instead of waiting the whole summer?
sydneysaint17 Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 Pitch invasion would be very embarrassing - we've had a good season. Good - not spectacular. It would undermine the celebrations for previous and future successes if we carnivalize the last game of every single season. On top of that, the players certainly wouldn't like it - sure they would much rather do a lap with their family's.
alehouseboys Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 I'm sure a couple of posters on here are on a wind-up but if you do decide to run onto the pitch (and yeah, it would be cringy) don't be surprised to see the mancs quickly join you. If you're up to taking them on then fill her boots.
Goatboy Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 you actually going to the game? 2 games in 1 season (or is the Everton game a myth GS?). Nah.
Hatch Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 I'm leaving early, Getting home 3 minutes earlier means the world to me.

What classifies spectacular?
Fan The Flames Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 Lauging at all the people saying how cringy it will be; when I was a teenager living in Brighton and going to the Goldstone, getting on the pitch for the last game of the season was never about celebrating the season achievements it was just about the fun of getting on the pitch. I don't know what you did in the Dell in those days. So if a load of kids want to run on to the pitch good for them. Also I don't think the stewards/police will let the Man U fans on the pitch as well.
Chewy Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 2 games in 1 season (or is the Everton game a myth GS?). Nah. I can't believe the asylum are letting him out twice in quick succession. Maybe they think he's getting better, but judging by what I read I'm not so sure.
CB Saint Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 We should have lots of flares and such like - would give us a touch of class
SNSUN Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 You lot pitch invade, I'm going to loot the fast food kiosks and nick the Eterna clock while you have them distracted.
Whitey Grandad Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 It wouldn't embarrass me, but I'm not a precious over-sensitive wilting wallflower with an inferiority complex. It's the end of a reasonably good season and an opportunity to close it off with a show of enthusiasm for the players and our wonderful owner.
Hatch Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch?
Whitey Grandad Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch? You've obviously never tried it. Anyone under 12 will be running around screaming with their arms in the air, it's what children do in a big open space. Others will be calmly enjoying the situation and quietly taking in how the stadium looks from a totally different viewpoint. And of course it's something that's illegal for the rest of the year.
SNSUN Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch? Nicking the grass to go in their flower press. Alongside the pube they secured from Justin Bieber's clungal region.
Gemmel Posted 9 May, 2014 Author Posted 9 May, 2014 From a personal perspective, the only thing that would encourage me to go on the pitch, is if that plank on the PA system (Who only appears at the last game of the season - Is he a copper?) spends the whole of second half telling us not too. Note to plank; Two announcements will be fine, three at an absolute push if we are spanking utd and Guly scores. But however much you like the sound of your own voice, continual announcements from 46 mins through to 90 are not required.

But however much you like the sound of your own voice, continual announcements from 46 mins through to 90 are not required. Absolutely, the reason the Championship relegation pitch invasion turned nasty was the constant "stay off the pitch" messages and worst of all, bringing the dogs out. That suddenly got everyone angry and turned a good natured pitch invasion into something pretty lairy. The following season was my last foray into the Northam. The whole stand spent the entire 2nd half singing "on the pitch, on the pitch..." etc, booing the PA announcement then at the final whistle, when a hundred or so do run on they boo them and call them "w*****s". Made me realise the Northam is full of all mouth no action muppets, season ticket moved after that. Up the Itchen!
Barry Sanchez Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 It's our best ever premiership finish, one place behind united. What classifies spectacular? Winning something.
Barry Sanchez Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 The best pitchy was at the Dell early 90's when all the players got pelted with the grass for a ****e season.
once_bitterne Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 I'm leaving early, Getting home 3 minutes earlier means the world to me. But that's impossible. Due to the design of SMS if you leave the game 3 mins early, you will actually get home 30 mins earlier!
Patrick Bateman Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch? While they invade the pitch, I'll be running backwards and looting the free drinks in the boxes. Sorted.
Pastor Patrón Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 Winning something. So you think Wigan did better last year then us this year?
Sour Mash Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch? Running around on a football has always been fun, what's not to like about it? Used to be tradition for a fair few years at the Dell, pity that's not the case anymore.
Marsdinho Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 Running around on a football has always been fun, what's not to like about it? Used to be tradition for a fair few years at the Dell, pity that's not the case anymore. The sod fight was fun.
rooney Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 It will be a poor do if we cannot thank the players on their lap of honour with their families ,just because some idiots wish to run on the pitch and spoil everything.
Goatboy Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 It will be a poor do if we cannot thank the players on their lap of honour with their families ,just because some idiots wish to run on the pitch and spoil everything. This.
Barry Sanchez Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 So you think Wigan did better last year then us this year? For me yes, I would take a Cup and relegation as I am old enough to remember when winning meant something, we only want to stay in the Premiership and remain at the party on the fringes, they have a day they will remember for the rest of their lives but that's just me.
kpturner Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 I'm sure a couple of posters on here are on a wind-up but if you do decide to run onto the pitch (and yeah, it would be cringy) don't be surprised to see the mancs quickly join you. If you're up to taking them on then fill her boots. Sounds like like you are stuck in the '70's and '80's !

You did...several times plus two administrations, WTFILN?
alehouseboys Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 Sounds like like you are stuck in the '70's and '80's ! And it sounds like you've got your head stuck up you arse The Mancs have played up every time they've been down. The OB struggled big time to keep control in the Cup game and there's some still smarting from the last time we played them last game of season when one of theirs got seriously injured in clashes before the game. If ours get on the pitch I can't see there being enough stewards/coppers to contain them.

Dr Who? Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch? Which I had the chance to leave 3 minutes early..... That would make me happy as a pig in ****!
Dr Who? Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 No one will go on the pitch. Would be nice to end the season with a win!
Horley CTFC Saint Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 just to clarify things, for anyone over the age of 12, whats exciting about going on the pitch? Fair point - so if we replace all the stewards with registered paedophiles all should be good
Gemmel Posted 9 May, 2014 Author Posted 9 May, 2014 Just as I thought. Thanks for proving my point so eloquently. He is right though
kpturner Posted 9 May, 2014 Posted 9 May, 2014 He is right though Yeah right - in your opinion. The rhetoric in that post smacks of vendetta mentality that I seriously doubt exists these days - certainly not the way it used to be..
brmbrm Posted 10 May, 2014 Posted 10 May, 2014 I will be streaking at the 35 minute stage. I will go buy beer 32 - 38 minutes.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 It will be a poor do if we cannot thank the players on their lap of honour with their families ,just because some idiots wish to run on the pitch and spoil everything. If someone stops them parading around with their brats I'll be happy. I want to applaud the players not their offspring. One of the things wrong with the modern game, you wouldn't see chopper Harris or bestie doing it.

One of the things wrong with the modern game, you wouldn't see chopper Harris or bestie doing it. Are you for real? If they want to carry there children around the pitch, let them. They've worked solidly for 38+ games and if they want to let there children enjoy it why not? Or were you one of those people who didn't see the fuss around Billy Sharp's song dying?
alehouseboys Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Yeah right - in your opinion. The rhetoric in that post smacks of vendetta mentality that I seriously doubt exists these days - certainly not the way it used to be.. "The rhetoric in that post smacks of vendetta mentality"
Miltonaggro Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 Winning something. You could always do a unilateral pitch invasion Barry. It would be like the final moments of Colonel Gaddafi all over again...
kpturner Posted 11 May, 2014 Posted 11 May, 2014 "The rhetoric in that post smacks of vendetta mentality" Too many syllables for you?
