I also saw Leon Clarke practically sprint off the pitch once he saw the fans coming. Can't blame him, but he's still a greedy tosser.

It stayed peaceful because they didn't get heavy handed.

FL will nail us as they will want to make a point. However we are past caring about point deductions
They will get just as highlighted as protests continue they are weak when it comes to the real issues.
CCFC a club with passion again fans care even if owners don't.
Get real owners in and this club has so much potential !!!!!!

It was down the other end I saw the stewards, as people went on the pitch.

Wish that fan and few others hadn't charged over to the UTD idiots even though they were causing it.
Should have completely ignored them as the ignorant twats they are
Should risk anything taking the shine off a great protest

I think the fact we lost may help.
We have already been punished in a way because we disrupted the game and when we came back on onto the pitch, then lost the match.
Might just be a fine.
Obviously don't want to lose points, as we are in dire straits as it is. A points deduction could seal our relegation fate.

After the frustration of the result has passed - I think it was a really well organised protest in its entirety - and it has got the media attention it was looking for. It was done peacefully and that is what will be remembered. It is so much more powerful when the fans don't allow it to descend to something more sinister.
I will say however - I don't think taking a child on the pitch is right. All it takes is another dickhead fan, or an overly zealous steward and it could get very messy.

Had to hold my lad back, he was itching to get on. Fair play to all that did, I was sorry not to join you but agree with Ian1779 that it's not for kids.
Result was irrelevant. Glad to hear the positive coverage that the protests got.

I saw the same 2 stewards throwing a kick towards a lad, the bigger blonde steward then threw a punch and another kick

Funny, I think the opposite. Sky will have got a lot more coverage and interest out of late night than a normal 1-2 sheff utd away win at Coventry on a thursday night.

Bet they were dreading this game for just being a non starter prior to kick off, we didn't disappoint

Help from whom? No one has been interested and when you get that lack of response generally people take matters into their own hands

Was it when they were wild DKE style kicks that completely missed and nearly left them flat on their arse, by the goal?

I got in on one pitch invasion as a kid, it was that game where Julian Darby beat Blackburn at HR to win Man Utd the title. It was after the game but from what I remembered we were all by the away end cheering the Blackburn fans and both lots of fans singing songs about Man Utd.

I got on at HR after a training open day, I stole some grass and it grew in my kitchen for years! It probably had shit loads of grass seed in to not ruin it for me, but I believed it was HR grass.

We got on the pitch in the corner at HR by the West Terrace when Cyril scored a late equaliser against Spurs.

Living round the corner, we used to go in during the summer holidays when it was left open for people picking their seats for the season. Apart from the brave kid doing a dive into the goal and being shouted at to get off the pitch, nobody there seemed to care that we'd spend hours just mooching round the stand sitting in various seats. Magical days

Regardless of the rights or wrongs about what happened last night, the main thing is that it's receiving national coverage and SISUs name is further being tarnished. Whilst I disagree with pitch invasions, there's no doubt that what happened last night has pushed our situation further into the limelight at SISUs expense. Job done.
Unfortunately, I suspect we won't be on Sky again this season as it could've given rise to another opportunity to do something different but ram the message home further.

Good luck Cov fans with getting YOUR club back.
The wider football world does support you. Forget about that classless lot Sheff U.
Rovers fans are quoting your lot as the way to protest. All we do is send emails and boycott. we need to show your passion and get on the pitch.
Always had a soft spot for HR, you must miss the old ground.

One of my friends used to work on the gate and when the first lone protestor came on he said stewards are instructed not to chase people.

Nope, the point is can the newspapers expose the people who actually own the club, they are investing in a Caymen Islands hedge fund because they don't want that publicity.
