The Barrow fans are talking about it on their Barrow.net forum.Some are sticking to the “keeper was assaulted” theme.
So does this mean that they’re going to try and ban everyone who went on the pitch ?
If wrexham take our stance that all should be banned then they wont be selling many tickets next year.https://youtu.be/sN8v3sSU98Y?si=XMnVF5PrtCe2Rww_Why was our fans pitch incursion deemed more threating??? It was over after a minute.
There was no incident with Farman.

The message from the club beforehand was very clear as to what the potential consequences would be. Play with fire and you’ll get burnt, as the saying goes. Serves them right
I really don't get these attempts to excuse pitch invasion on the grounds of over excitement, if it really were the case I'd suspect every one of them would have also lost control of their bladder as well as the ability to make sensible decisions.

What you fail to see, is that if fans entering the pitch is condoned, then what happens when someone does assault a player, regardless of the reason for the incursion?
Separate incidents don't mitigate each other. Just because their subs ran on the pitch etc...makes no difference. Post match invasions are one thing, but during a game is another when considering player safety etc. The club has to be seen to be complying with the law and taking appropriate action against those who deliberately transgressed and they will. There is no defence or justification for running on the pitch during the game. End of.

Personally im not one for pitch invasions whatever the situation whether thats a win to survive relagation, a win to gain promotion or in our case, a goal to keep playoff hopes alive after a dismal 3 years. But should we look to ban all the ppl that entered the field? Or pin point anyone who approched a player whether it was a drfc or Bafc player? There would of been some young kids in there that ran on out of excitment and straight back off again without needs for restraint. Do we ban those also.

The truth is nobody got assaulted It’s a total over reaction by people who if they weren’t getting upset by this would be getting upset by something else.

The laws are there to prevent such a thing happening. Of course they would get picked up by cameras, but prevention is better surely, especially for the individuals assaulted.??
Not condoning anyone running on the pitch and they should never have gone to the opposition, our players to celebrate perhaps.However, you have to look at the context. It was one of the biggest moments in our history, look how the game played out, consider what fans have been through for the past 3 years or so and the unreal winning streak that we somehow maintained you can see why some were over excited and did something they shouldn't.Players getting a yellow card for celebrating with their shirt off with the crowd while not the same is similar.Footy is emotional. And yes some fans stepped too far. But let's not forget the delirium on Saturday.

And yes some fans stepped too far. But let's not forget the delirium on Saturday.Keep it in context then. It wasn’t “one of the biggest moments in our history”, it was a fantastic comeback ensuring we remain on track for the play offs.No excuse for invading the pitch. Some on there looked about 14 years old, what ‘history’ do they have of the club.
