Going on the pitch is a great British tradition, not just for Dicks, but for Toms and Harrys as well. I was on the pitch after the Palace 6-0 and after Leeds 2011, along with thousands of other fans. Wouldn't dream of it now, but I'm old git. | |

Anyone who goes on will have been on the pitch as much as Taylor Richards. | | | |

Last time for me was Villa away in 1968. We all cascaded down from the Holt End - the R's had taken it over - onto the pitch. By the time I could now get down from Row E in the South Africa Stand, it would probably be Sunday morning, so I won't ! [Post edited 3 May 2023 11:15]

Anybody going on the pitch after this season are just embarrassing. The players should do a quick clap as they leave the pitch at the end of the game. I am not sitting around waiting for some lap of appreciation it’s just not appropriate …end of. | | | |

That's a shame. I'm guessing that the emotion of winning the title coupled with the stress of Faurlingate got the better of some folk.
I vowed never to do it again after making a fool of myself at Highfield Road in 1996. When Gallen 'scored' in our 6-pointer against Coventry, I ran around like a headless chicken only to realise that it had been chalked off for offside. Luckily for me I made it back to the stands and the QPR faithful hid me from the stewards. Unluckily for us we went on to lose 1-0 and were subsequently relegated from the Prem. | | | |

Only a few weeks ago I'd identified several of you I wanted to take to the pitch.
Admittedly it would have been via the players entrance to the pitch, in kit, and escorting a mascot as part of the pre-game rituals.
The Chef in goal with a back line of Bosh, Paddox, McCarthy, and Woking would, in my view, halt our leakiness.
Now, you can all stand down. | |

we all done it when we were kids, kids are no different now.
makes them feel special walking on the hallowed turf.
nothing to celebrate, let the kids on with a football each and show the players where the net is. | |

They were almost unbelievable scenes weren't they? IIRC Marsh only had his jock strap left when he went off the pitch. The motorway was a sea of R's fans; my mate's dad who took us estimated around 13-14k R's in the ground for the game. One of my most cherished away days over the years. | |
