Master Bates Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 One of the Sunday tabloids mentioned a pitch invasion by Saints fans after the equaliser on Saturday. Are we likely to face a fine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocco boxo Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 I am sure the FA and people like Gordon Taylor feel we deserve a second chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Window Cleaner Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 One of the Sunday tabloids mentioned a pitch invasion by Saints fans after the equaliser on Saturday. Are we likely to face a fine? nope, security is up to the home club as a rule. If our fans are unruly that's Orient's fault for not controlling them.

St. Jason Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 One of the Sunday tabloids mentioned a pitch invasion by Saints fans after the equaliser on Saturday. Are we likely to face a fine? No zzzzzzzzzzz there were about 8 fans who got over excited, it was over as quick as it started, no aggression, just excited young men! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladysaint Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 Pitch invasion - about 4 people got on the pitch there was also a beach ball on the pitch at one stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 I am sure the FA and people like Gordon Taylor feel we deserve a second chance? Others might say that the clubs progress and behaviour of its fans are inextricably linked. Ten point deduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Leyton beach store get fined for selling the beach ball? I'm sure it got the last touch for Rickies equaliser which wrong footed the keeper, he had no chance!

krissyboy31 Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 It didn't even register on the tv highlights so I can't see we've anything to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_Porter Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 Pitch invasion is pushing it, there where a handfull of people on the pitch for about 30 seconds. Was quite embarassing celebrating a draw with Orient like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 I'd be more concerned about the Orient fan who got involved with Kelvin Davies when he was trying to retrieve the ball - VERY close to a technical assault on a player/entering the playing area, which equals a very serious FA charge - from what I could see it didn't even generate a telling off from the steward on the spot so a few cheery people wandering about is no big deal in comparison, and their problem if it is. And I have a confession -when the beach ball landed on my lap my instant reaction was to hurl it in the direction of their six yard box, sadly it only made it onto the left wing but the thought was there. Guilty of trying to generate a Saints goal through any means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 It was hardly a pitch invasion and the Orient stewards were having a laugh with the perpetrators afterwards, once they had let them back in the stand. If we receive a punishment it will be an absolute disgrace. But we won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Bates Posted 2 November, 2009 Author Share Posted 2 November, 2009 One guy the other side of the aisle to me smashed up one of the wooden seats & was holding it up like some kind of trophy.

rick1976.4.38 Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 if around 5 fans is a pitch invasion.cant see anything happening from the fa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 nope, security is up to the home club as a rule. If our fans are unruly that's Orient's fault for not controlling them. Although about half the stewards there were saints stewards, so they may be as responsible? Nevertheless there was nothing worth a punishment.

Nadia Sllim Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 Just think in 30 years time there will be posts about the day we took loads up to Orient and " I was there when we invaded the pitch " threads. Good day out and nice to go away and see Saints come from behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Samuel Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 I'd be more concerned about the Orient fan who got involved with Kelvin Davies when he was trying to retrieve the ball - VERY close to a technical assault on a player/entering the playing area, which equals a very serious FA charge - from what I could see it didn't even generate a telling off from the steward on the spot so a few cheery people wandering about is no big deal in comparison, and their problem if it is. Fair play to Kelvin for not reacting to the fan though. I didn't think the pitch invasion was any worse than the one at Preston away last season, I can understand a few fans getting carried away, heard a rumour that two arrests were made. Think there would've been a much larger scale pitch invasion if we had grabbed a last minute winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchards Posted 2 November, 2009 Share Posted 2 November, 2009 Pitch invasion - about 4 people got on the pitch there was also a beach ball on the pitch at one stage. Did anyone see the beach ball try to score again, they really are menacing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
