I'm sure I'm going to get a load of stick from people for dragging this up, but the thread it was hidden in doesn't deserve to be hijacked.
Anyway, reference page 3 here (http://foot.ie/showthread.php?t=26425)
In a nutshell.....
Not taking any sides in this, but after EVERY game $h€l$ allow people onto the pitch. NOBODy ever gets onto the pitch at Turner's Cross because the club and stewards rigourously enforce that "rule" and we are told the club will be fined for any pitch encroachments.
I think the fine thing was probably just made up by Brian Lennox (who's not exactly known for telling the truth) in order to make people think they'd be hurting the club by going on the pitch. In fairness, it has worked because it doesn't even cross City fans minds to run onto the pitch anymore.
Thats a low comment. I would suspect there is a rule but that the fine almost never imposed. Brian Lennox said he had 3 year play to win the league all signs are good. Said last year would get to 1/4 final of Inter Toto Cup & we did. As long as that record continues & he keeps funding City what more can we expect...
Pretty sly Colm, sneaking that in. :rolleyes:
I guess you think that constant repetition will makes it true.
Well, it doesn't.
Chill out ffs, it was only a throw away remark to try and outline the point I was making. As usual though, the same people jump down the throat of anyone who doesn't bow to saint Brian. :rolleyes:
I'm only speaking from my own personal experience and dealings and I firmly believe that I'm 100% correct in that comment. None of you can prove me wrong because I have witnessed a number of incidents of blatent lying to mine and other City fans faces. If people don't like that there's not much I can do about it and it's a bit unfair to dismiss me like that when you haven't had dealings with the man or witnessed any of these incidents.
Ok, I'll shut up now as it's pointless.
