SUPPORTERS ARE URGED TO STAY OFF THE PITCH...

There were unsavoury scenes at a number of games towards the end of last term after supporters entered the field of play.

In one of the most high-profile cases, a fan was jailed after running on to the pitch and headbutting Sheffield United captain Billy Sharp at the end of the Blades’ Championship play-off semi- final shoot-out defeat by Nottingham Forest.

Now the EFL – and others - have reiterated the message that supporters should stay in the stands.
