Seems like its becoming a fashion....these pitch invasions....it started with games at juve and roma and now its spread to the world of cricket with 2 pitch invasions in eng matches....whoof!i think the fans are not able to control themselves..... :eek:

Yeah there was that incident and Edgebaston where all them Pakistan fans ran onto the pitch and England had to concede the match. Last night Pakistan played the Aussies and there wasn't any real pitch invasion because of that plastic fence they had put up.
But it really needs to stop(in football and cricket) because some people might get injured.We saw what happened in South Arfica not so long ago....

Its been happening for years in cricket.I remember it happened in the West Indies last time Australia toured there.It only happens cos one person does it so the rest follow.

One problem the englishmen have is that though they possess immense talent still they don't know much about team work...
take the e.g of zimbabwe ,as individuals they are nothing but still they play well

cricket pitch invasions have been going on for years now...thats why most countries have big nets round the fence...its still kinda rampant in the west indies though..people always want souvenirs.
