    This is where a bit of common sense perhaps could've been applied. The game was highly charged at that moment. Even our head coach was red carded and 2 of our players booked for dissent after a cast iron penalty claim was turned down. We then get the late winner- all this in a short space of time. Its fair to say that emotions were running high at that point and the kid has got carried away in the moment. Quietly usher him back into the stand and leave it at that for me.

    It all depends what he did Pass? Accidentally catching him is one thing but hitting him is another, also is it a black eye or has he smacked him over the head with something?
    What worries me is if we get fined again, fines are starting to add up to a player purchase!

    Top and bottom it wasn't a pitch invasion as such the kid just wanted to join in the goal celebrations with the players on the sidelines

    You see Players run up or into to the crowd regularly when an important goal goes in, it’s just passion for a few seconds, which in turn is an invitation for the fans to join in, the stewards are caught in the middle, personally if it was me I’d stand back and let them have that moment, but I speak as a passionate fan not someone who chooses to ‘help police’ a game of football for a paltry sum. I’ve seen them throw a ten year old lad head first onto concrete before to stop him going up to his heroes at final whistle at the end of the season. Sorry this guy got hurt but some of them are over zealous in executing their brief.
