    What are people really expecting from the stewards in this situation?

    But, by the same token, players are told not to jump into the crowd and celebrate with fans. Should they be treated just as harshly? Because, as you say, they ALL know the rules and they are not hard to conform to”.

    Does that include standing whilst celebrating as I believe standing at games is also against stadia rules...?

    Perhaps we should just keep seated and applaud with a gentle hand clap?!!

    Already noted, hence why Bowyer’s team only had a couple of shots on target in the last 2 games.

    A three year ban, really.
    Now there's a blessing in disguise.

    Is it that hard to control yourself from running on the pitch?

    There is plenty of space to carry on and celebrate without running past the hoardings.

    I do agree with the fact that throwing of seats/ flares, antagonising stewards at away games etc is a bigger issue. It doesnt help our own fans booing and sticking up for these idiots when they rightly get lobbed out. I havnt been away much this year but certainly have not missed these pillocks embarrassing us.

    It is disgusting what Millwall get away with but is a separate argument to this.

    Football (Offences) Act 1991.

    It is an offence for a person at a designated football match to go onto the playing area, or any area adjacent to the playing area to which spectators are not generally admitted, without lawful authority or lawful excuse (which shall be for him to prove).

    Very true Chris. But as you will have noted, I had responded to your post #73 which comes before your post #81.

    Significant police presence today on the upper, emphasis upper, tier of the Kop. Was it called for today?

    Have you never exceeded the speed limit on your way home from VP when the roads are quiet?

    Sometimes common sense has to take precedence over the black and white interpretation of rules and regulations.

    Unfortunately once fans encroach onto the playing area ground rules are broken whether we like it or not.

    Unfortunately it might cost the club, do we need to be paying fines to the FA when we are trying to keep Stefan onside.

    I'm not defending it just pointing out this is the 3rd time the FA have been involved with actions of our fans, you can plead for one indecent but 3 in just less than 3 months.

    As I posted above challenging the one indecent yes I think challenging 3 in less than 3 months might be pushing it.

    @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler bit rich when you allow convicted hooligans in the club with no ban

    Yes I agree with regards the smoke bomb issue, but unfortunately the FA will not look at the pitch encroachment like that, the fans entering the pitch have broken ground rules and it is up to Bradford City and our stewarding to make sure it doesn't happen especially after the Aston Villa indecent.
    One thing for sure there wont be any pitch invasions at the last home game, unless of course the 3 points we get from Wimbledon secure our place in league one for next season.

    Can we not have some gate type things at the bottom of each set of steps with a steward manning them? Or is it for fire reasons we don’t have them?
