We didn't know that at the time, we still had boro to play and playoffs thereafter.

There is going to be cows on the pitch fffsake
You got in quick to alter your original post - I'd like to see cows on the pitch personally
I really hope the club don't do that this time. It's pointless anyway, nobody listens, and it just sours the moment. If they just wait for 3-4 minutes and let the initial emotion calm down a bit, then announce something like "Fantastic achievement by the players to get us promoted to the Premier League. Can everybody please now return to their seats so the players can come back out and we can all celebrate together". People would listen, the pitch would be cleared, and the part would start.

What at the Wigan game? If we have secured promotion against Wigan, I can imagine CH or Bruno and the players coming back out and saying something but not a lap of honour with families, Bloom etc.. how many laps of honour do we want? Also why can't the players come back out after the few hundred have cleared the pitch?

I half EXPECT Barbers GOONS to stand round the pitch side NOT only trying to STOP the pitch invasion but seeing if EVERYONE has the CORRECT ticket too

Maybe this is just the PRE-CURSOR to making us BUY a ticket for the INVASION

Will the 1901 be helicopter'd on?
I'm confused about who's being precious here. The majority who want to be able to watch the players celebrate rather than having to leg it for the tunnel? Or the selfish minority who think that their 'right' to prance about on the pitch for 20 minutes somehow makes them much more passionate than the rest of us who've watched the club for 30 years.
You think? So all those people stayed on the pitch and spoilt the celebrations because they were being asked to get off it? Odd.
This. I raised one eyebrow and pursed my lips at the post that prompted your reply. Then I lowered an eyebrow and unleashed a smirk when I read your reply.

Who made you the majority? Speak for yourself or has someone appointed you a spokesperson for the 'majority' - I must have missed that email.

Like other have probably said, they know pitch invasion is going to happen regardless of the warning, they just need to say this for the 'we told you so' factor if anything bad happens. Hopefully everyone is on and off the pitch within 10 or so minutes, so the team have their well deserved applause.

Exactly. There'll be a brief pitch invasion. Anyone being out of order will be dealt with and banned, everyone else goes back to their seats, lap of honour, done.
No big fuss. No damage. No bans.
If you've been watching the club for 30 years or whatever you'll know this is a normal way to celebrate at our club and all others. No big deal..

Agree that all will be fine but TBF most of those discussing this probably remember the horlicks at Withdean.
Obviously, I'm not 'the majority' as I'm 1 person. But you're telling me that more than 15000 people feel they ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO run on the pitch. No way.
