Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
HOPEFULLY we will be presented with the National League Trophy and the players will do a lap of honour...………. The pitch invasion should be put on hold until all this has happened.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
Yeah, let's do a spontaneous pitch invasion say half hour after the final whistle has blown.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
If we go up, regardless of what anyone on here says, or the club says, it will happen.
Embrace it, get it done, get off the pitch and enjoy the presentation.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
I reckon there will be an announcement to keep off and plenty of stewards to attempt to enforce it. Then it is just a matter of numbers. Pretty sure the club along with TV will want all presentations to happen on the pitch rather than up on the balcony. Also BT Sport end their transmission at 2.45pm, which doesn’t leave too much time for a pitch invasion.

They would indeed. More importantly though, who cares what BT Sport think? It's our day, not theirs.CreamofSumYungGai wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 3:58 pm BT Sport will be gutted if there isn't a pitch invasion.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
Just remember, if they say the presentation has been cancelled and the players have gone home, they're probably lying.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
Somebody told me that they don't have the trophy unless you are already mathematically guaranteed to win the title and it is a home game. I suppose if Salford did do the necessary and we lost, it would look a bit stupid.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
If it goes pear shaped they can always have a fast car to err Hartlepool.
Less problematic if Solihull win the title as they can just drive down the A11.
Suspect trophy will be at Brisbane Road, even if kept out of sight until final whistle.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
So had this matter been settled?
We're all going on the turf, meanwhile Spen sits there waving a book of laws in his hand shouting "YOU'RE ALL BREAKING THE LAW".
Look forward to it.

Re: Pitch Invasion Saturday
I am going to the bar and returning to my seat with a beer after the final whistle before I go on the pitch. Going for the full 70s throwback experience.
Hopefully there is a hot dog/boiled burger stall along with the touts and the tat men on the way in. Will chuck a bog roll on the pitch at kick off.
Am I missing anything?
