    Pitch Invasion

    WHEN we win the league... will we invade the pitch? It obviously happens down south most seasons but I hope we don't do it, incase the players don't get to celebrate on the pitch with the trophy etc like hampden.

    Thoughts.

    Pitch invasions are for the younger generations.
    I could not be arsed climbing over the seats , walking down the stairs , stopping for a pie, climbing over the wall , bribing the steward and then getting my deck shoes muddy .

    We should have an Argentina . Does anyone remember them or was it a name my street made up for throwing paper and bog roll

    The young radges will do it. I would be hard pushed to make the leap from the West Upper

    Might have to make do with throwing a flare




















    That was a joke...............

    Hope not. Would much rather get the trophy presented to Sunshine On Leith as quick as possible if I'm honest

    I'll just be glad that (if and when it happens) we'll be out of this league. I'm not thinking it's going to be a huge cause for celebration like the cup win was. I'll enjoy it, be happy about it, but there'll be no thoughts of going on a three day bender or invading the pitch or that.

    It happens every year in the football league in England and nobody bats and eyelid. If hibs were to do it police Scotland would probably push to get our games played behind doors or something

    We stil haven't won the league there is still an outside chance if we are not up to the job but fingers and toes crossed we can clinch it over the next few games. We have spent three years in this league, we missed out when hertz won it, we missed out when rankgers won it, so the fans have the right to celebrate. The fans have been brilliant this season so its up to us to have something in place so we can enjoy it.

    The club will issue a statement beforehand telling fans there will be serious repercussions if they do. It'll only spoil the day and for that reason a big no from me. Our neighbours didn't do it nor did the Rangers.

    I remember it well. Swinging on the cross bar at Firhill!

    Just no.

    I hope if we do have a game at home when we win the league or final home game we get league trophy that the club issue a statement and have proper security to stop it happening.

    Will be interesting to see when this happens...south stand full of Hibs fans would be nice too.

    As others have said - we will celebrate but not a massive achievement considering we shouldn't be down here in the first place.

    Oddly though it's been some of my most enjoyable years following Hibs as winning games makes weekends so much better. The top league is over rated !

    If we win it at an away game it will probably happen, but not if it's at Easter Road. I was on the pitch at Firhill the last time, but i was much younger then

    United we stand here....

    Celebrating winning the championship should be a fairly down beat thing. Yes we need to congratulate the players when (and it will) it happens but let's not go over the top for winning the second tier.

    No. Enjoy the celebrations in the stands and leave the pitch for the players to celebrate on.

    When we win the league I'm going to be happy that we're getting out of it, and that we'll have the opportunity to kick on as a club, rather than being delighted with winning this league trophy.

    Please stay off the pitch when it does happen. May was pure emotion and understandable.

    However let the players enjoy this if it happens. I remember in 07 after the cup and some ruined it for others back at Easter road.

    Winning Div 2 in Scotland (after 3 years, with no stiff competition this year, and our resources) should be celebrated in the appropriate way, a warm and polite round of applause for the team, management and club. We'll have achieve our goal. Invading the pitch would be ridiculous.

    Id rather invade the pitch at hampden in May

    Things done elsewhere doesn't make anything right or necessary.

    Racial abuse, pitch invasions, flares, smoke bombs, sectarian singing, sweetie paper rustling, falling down the stairs and onto the pitch side, attacking players or managers etc etc.

    Stay at the sides and applaud or indeed get on the pitch if invited to do so but if not, stay off....

    Fair point about away game..

    You don't see many police at these games so could easily happen..hopefully clubs are prepared and fans behave themselves in the stands.

    Not made up. I first saw it at the world cup in Argentina in 1978, paper thrown at the start, and it was then done at ER for at least a few games at the start of the next season.

    Why stop at invading the pitch? Let's take the whole ****ing City. Then we march South. Today the Championship, tomorrow the World. C'mon Hibbys, who is with me?

    Every gimmick hungry yob,
    Digging gold from rock and roll
    Grabs the mic to tell us,
    He'll die before he's sold.

    And it ruined the chance for the team to celebrate properly. Just don't do it, and have the type of celebration we should have had at Hampden last year.
