bikinigirl said:. importantly (and I am not trying to divert any responsibility from anybody involved) I do not recall the ground announcer stating rules regarding pitch invasion
. this has been done in the past

Still, it is written on nearly every fence that leads onto the pitch and it's also common knowledge for pretty much everyone that has ever been to a sporting event.
