Pitch invasions

[upthemaggies]

It's disgusting - the goading, taunting and assaults on opposition players...

It won't stop at that, soon enough it'll stretch to fans' own players should they lose (not at Notts, don't worry lads!)

Until now, pitch invasions would happen without this element to them. So what's changed? It can only be the character/behaviour/attitude of the people doing it in 2022. Not a good reflection on our society/country...
What's the cause? Has social media turned a lot of people into real life trolls? I won't miss the chance to just blame the poisonous tories
: )

I think what's changed (and I'm not stating this as fact, just my observation) has been the widespread approval and excuses being made from 2020 (by politicians included) for 'the mob' / legitimate protesters crossing the boundaries of what has always - until now - been deemed to be acceptable. Including violence.

Edit: Police behaviour hasn't exactly been what can be described as professional in some cases either. It's been heating up on all sides.
