Wainy316 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I invaded for Blackburn but invaded in a quarter for Hal is a bit much. Saying that, maybe it's a massive built up cum shot after being deprived of any joy for so long. The ones who came on before the whistle are prices btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I just regret not being there to run on the pitch. At the full time whistle of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob182 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I don't mind the pitch invasion, it's a combination of joy of going to Wembley, relief from a season of frustration and beating the local yobs who have been giving it the big'un for the past few months. I do have a problem with the people who invaded before the whistle though, that was stupid and put a tiny dampener on the win. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I think there is some kind of massive disconnect here. I can't believe anyone WOULDN'T take the opportunity to step out onto the pitch and celebrate with their fellow man at the final whistle. What is football about if you can't celebrate a trip to Wembley? So far I've been called an idiot, a disgrace and pathetic on this board tonight. Feels a bit weird, I felt like I "knew" most of you in a funny kinda way. Ah well, Up The Villa. look, I kind of understand, but £200 from Crimestoppers will fund a trip to Wembley you goin' down 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Running on the pitch was done correctly, after the Blackburn game, this wasn't acceptable. After the whistle, without hassling any players or refs etc, is fine. I was one of the first on the pitch after the Blackburn game, and i ran straight to the holte end, to embrace what an amazing stand that is, not to get something, not to grieve the opposition fans, not to bum any of the players, but just to experience the awesome entity that is the holte end, when it's full, rocking and we're all just about to get to Wembley. Giving the tabloids/pundits half an inch when the game is still going on, is absolutely asking for trouble. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 I'm Upper Holte, K7, row 3, so I couldn't get on the pitch even if I wanted to!! You'll never get me, rozzers!!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the skipper come out talking about it being dangerous, his boot and armband being stolen, and him being bitten by fans isn't going to help things either - not that I'm saying he shouldn't have said it, to the contrary, more it should never have happened 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Seeing on social media that three albion players apparently assaulted on the pitch afterwards. Anyone heard anything? I saw Lescott surrounded by Villa fans at the end who were right in his face and clearly giving him abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think the main reason for the pitch invasion was down to a sense of joy, after having such a dreadful couple of seasons. It's simple, if the FA want to prevent another pitch invasion, they need to stop making us lose so many games and miss so many shots!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
