I am not saying the 2 guys who went on the pitch were in the wrong, but as I've already said and ground regulations also state, it is an offence to go onto the field of play and it was Shrewsbury supporters who pushed them there not the stewards.

Our posts crossed, ozzy. From what I've been told, a Stanley player went to collect the ball during the warm up and didn't lock the gate. Stewards were watching and also didn't. It was clearly not a pitch invasion, I just thought common sense might have prevailed in the circumstances.
