I know football is exciting and emotional game and has a big impact on our lives, but I simply don't understand why every time GTFC score we seem to have grown men jumping on the pitch. Both home and away, look at the highlights and every time, there are town fans jumping over barriers. It's illegal and must give a negative impression of our town and what are basically amazing supporters. I could understand it if it was the odd kid who didn't know better, but we're talking grown men here. Please have a look at yourselves!!

It is the only negative at the moment and such a shame. We are doing brilliantly and it is galling to have to mention it, but before too long the club will be reprimanded or worse. It is illegal as you say and to me it looks so tinpot - like those scenes in the '70s where a non-league side scored against league opposition. The club ought to put a stop to it before it escalates.

There was one bald headed bloke on Saturday who piled in to the melee bursting through the gate. He then went back to his small son. Well done that man.

It tends to be the younger generation finding it difficult to hold the emotion of sheer ecstasy when Town score a very late winner in an important game. I was there and I’d be on the pitch myself if it wasn’t for my back and dodgy knee, there was nothing violent about it just sheer exuberance, fans wanting to celebrate with their players for their team, no problem with that at all

It's always the ones who look like they haven't moved on from the 90's too when it comes to fashion sense, just makes us look like a backwards chav town. If you must flirt with the idea of getting a fine and/or a ban can you at least not dress like you're at an under 18's disco in Meggies circa 1997.

Adults are expected to be able to control themselves. Being emotional doesn’t give you licence to ignore the rules. Apart from which it could end up costing the club and innocent supporters could be penalised. We’re trying to get away from supporters being treated like shït. Behaviour like that doesn’t help.

It baffles me that some people think it's ok. We sit here complaining about the number of games being moved due to police advice and clubs restricting our followings but then when you see this happening, it's not really a surprise is it? Some people say it's ok because it's only a few fans. So what happens next week when a few others decide to do it? Before you know it, you have a significant number of fans running onto the pitch. It's an illegal act therefore it's not ok. If you are someone that can't stay behind a barrier, sit or stand further away.

On the subject of celebration, I very much enjoyed this guy's fist pumping...

They are so off their heads on coke and drink that they have no control and they are the ones who never wear football tops only Burberry and Stone Island.
