Wannabe hard kids in the Upper Tier of the Cheadle End, I think. There have been. quite a few comments on social media about the anti-social behaviour there all season, so good that the Club has called it out.

I'm not sure about the banning orders for fans running onto the pitch, though, as it's been a thing since I can remember, I've done it a few times myself after some amazing achievements when I was younger, but only when it was a mass invasion after a promotion etc. They do have to stop random invasions for goals, yes, but if we manage to get promotion back to the Football League after over a decade of some quite horrible times, do they really expect us to sit in our seats doing a Tim Henman clap while the players do a lap of honour? Will they ban all of us then? Of course not.
It needs cutting out at the times I've stated above, but bans, seriously?

Agreed on that point, Gazz. (And I've done it, too, possibly at the same times as you... ) The bans this week, I think, were for throwing stuff - including drinks - in the CE, which was the latest in a series of generally scrote-ish conduct around part of the UT there.

I'm one hundred percent behind those bans, Maccy, I really do struggle to understand the mentality of some who attend our games. The part I'm referring to here is this: Pitch Incursions
Any person who encroaches onto the field of play or pitch side track, for whatever reason, will be ejected by ground security staff and also banned from the Stadium.Of course, they're not going to stop a mass invasion if we get promoted etc, but this part will just give some jobsworth stewards carte blanche to pick on the easier targets and have them banned for doing the same as everyone else. Some stewards are horrible tw##s, and this will just give them a reason to be even bigger tw##s.

Sadly it only needs one idiot with a knife to cause some major injury.
Of course, this could still be used on the terraces and not just the pitch. Duty of care and all that.

Tend to agree except that running onto the pitch is, whether we like it or not, a specific offence i.e., it's illegal so yes, bans would appear to be appropriate. Having been at the game at Kiddie in which one of their players appeared to get a punch up the bracket by one of the cretins who seemed to think that getting the game abandoned would save the club from its inevitable relegation I can see why it was introduced. Mindless f***ing morons getting in the way of the pleasure of the majority again but hey ho! It seems to be the world we live in.

They should ban people who leave litter in the stadium, instead of putting it in the bins. That's also a disgrace.
