Long time til the next home game. Doubt he'll be able to bite his tongue til his next set of Programme Notes. Expect a stern email sometime soon from the Eternally Disappointed Headmaster.

Time to ban all fans from stadiums I imagine.

As it looks better on TV with crowds in the stadiums how about they ban actual fans and instead hire professional fans to fill the seats in the same way clubs like Arsenal have those flag wavers for when they score? They could all be given song sheets so would all sing in unison. No potential crowd trouble and still keeps the "atmosphere" there.

I know you've started the thread as a tongue in cheek post BUT you've got to be a bit of a dick to invade the pitch no ?

You say that, but who will he Barbsplain to if there were no fans?

Have we ever had a pitch invader at the AMEX ?

(Forgetting the Wigan game in which no NSCers took part in the invasion)

Yes one that I can remember - was it the first time we played Liverpool in the first season maybe in the league cup or was that the bottle of coke from WSU

Sounds like the long-awaited philosophical follow-up to "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

It's only coaching staff that hit fans with bottles-with-tops-on. That was a good enough reason to impose a rule that means concourses and stands will forever now be coated with the sticky mess of a million spilled drinks.

Email to come by the middle of the week, notifying all that seating will be strictly enforced as it is easier to spot any potential pitch invader if everyone else is sitting down. Anyone standing while the game is in in progress will be viewed as a potential pitch invader and will be immediately ejected from the stadium (for life).

For those that have weak bladders, like to go to the concourse ahead of half time or to leave early, they will need to purchase (on a per game basis) colour coded permission slips.

Match Cat C £5 per voucher
Match Cat B £7.50 per voucher
Match Cat A £10 per voucher

In addition later arrivals either at the start of the match or returning form half time will not be permitted to take up their seats but will have to remain on the concourse

Yes, a couple of goons went on at the north-west corner once. Can't remember which game.
