Were you one of the old duffers in the Longside upper going red in the face booing some kids for doing exactly what you did when you were younger.
No, no and no.
I wasn't in Longside Upper and I didn't run on the pitch contrary to instructions when I was younger, and I didn't boo.
tbh, I really wasn't sure what to do at the final whistle.
At the final whistle I was wanting to cheer on the team and celebrate, but was drowned out by the boos around me, and the moment was partially spoilt.
I'm hoping that everyone behaves correctly and follows any guidance at the celebrations this evening. There'll be a lot of people there, including young children and the elderly, and some control measures are essential. That's what it boils down to essentially.

Kids I could understand, they don't know better

But as has been pointed out to you numerous times it wasn't just kids, it was braindead adults as well, who continue to try and justify their actions even today.

if you're over the age of about 12 and doing knee slides on the pitch like you've just scored a winner then you need a hard drive check. proper cringe.

So while they were on the pitch, no trophy presentation.
And I assume you meant the armless bit of fun that the majority were roundly booing.
👍👍
Oh come on , a few mins the pitch was cleared . There was no fans after fighting etc . Sure , pitch invasions should only ever really happen if spontaneous, like a last min promotion goal or saved from relegation . But the club could quite easily announce “ anyone encroaching the pitch will receive a lifetime ban “ which would suffice .

But the club put it quite clearly on the big screens that pitch encroachment is an arrestable offence.

The problem is it just comes across as an idle threat when that action isn’t carried out

In the circumstances, I'm sure they wouldn't.
But if someone was they couldn't argue when it was plain for all to see.
