Its wrong, it really is. What you cant do is say thats synonymous of all their fans, its not its just some idiot running on the pitch. Its dangerous, really dangerous, but people just need to self-police. If someone wants to go on the pitch no matter how many police or stewards you have you arent going to stop them.But we dont want to go back to where it was 15 or 20 years ago in this country where people are behind fences.The FA are now investigating the footage and may punish Stockport for the supporters’ behaviour.This incident comes only a couple of weeks after Jack Grealish was assaulted on the pitch by a Birmingham City supporter.Paul Mitchell was jailed for assaulting Grealish3
