ReadingGlasses I'm a bit torn on this one.
The recent incidents have been concerning, and I can see how the players might feel that they're at risk when a large number fans come on to the pitch. I wouldn't be surprised if clubs end up being punished more and more for this kind of thing.
On the other hand, not all pitch invasions are like this. Some are rare joyful opportunities for players and fans to celebrate together. Would the promotion celebrations in 2012 have been the same without all those fans coming on to the pitch together? Or going back further, the pitch invasion after winning the league in 1994? Both of those seem like iconic moments as a Reading fan, and it would be a shame to miss out on something like that in the future.
Interestingly (*), I was in the lower west during that 2012 pitch invasion and I still remember seeing the sea of humanity coming towards the players like just a tidal wave of people - and thinking just how scary that looked for the players. It's an image etched into my brain.
