The Club's made a bit of a rod for its own back, really, with such a strongly worded statement. That said, if they do present it in the dressing room, the bad guys won't be the Club, it'll be the few who've ruined it for themselves and everyone else. I'd imagine they'd feel the extent of everyone else's disappointment, if they did so. It also sounds like R!chie in particular would be very unhappy at the lack of respect shown. We can't have it both ways, I'd say. You can't pronounce him the best thing since sliced bread, and fervently hope that he pledges his future to the Orient, and at the same time act in a way he's already spelled out is disrepectful to him and the players.TRUMP Plumbing wrote: ↑Thu Apr 27, 2023 8:48 pmDo you honestly think there's any chance the Trophy will be presented to the players in the dressing room?
Maybe if fans do go on the pitch it may take Richie going on the microphone and make a personal appeal to the fans to get off.StillSpike wrote: ↑Thu Apr 27, 2023 9:45 pmThe Club's made a bit of a rod for its own back, really, with such a strongly worded statement.

If the club does go through with the on pitch presentation despite some people on the pitch - they've basically told everyone not to believe them on anything.
I must admit this is my view also. What's so great about going on the pitch??Story of O wrote: ↑Thu Apr 27, 2023 10:01 pm What’s so important about making a Pratt of yourself on the pitch?
FA and EFL have come down really hard on pitch invasions following last seasons incidents, I'd imagine it's a directive from them (see Coventry, Ipswich and Shef U's recent statements).StillSpike wrote: ↑Thu Apr 27, 2023 9:45 pmThe Club's made a bit of a rod for its own back, really, with such a strongly worded statement.

It's not that simples.
You’ll only run on if you see other people on there you haven’t got the balls to be the first on, same goes for Trump
No such thing !

It is, if the fans stay in their seats, or at least off the pitch and allow the players and staff to have their day which they’ve earned and given us fans a lot of pleasure.

We can go on the pitch on Sunday at the “Promotion Party “
Anyway, Richie has made his plea, let’s hope the vast majority of fans listen and give the players some space to receive the trophy.
