Are Wrexham, Incester, notloB, Scum etc also going to be charged?

Blatant profiteering

Sadly with referees and players AND fans being attacked during various recent pitch invasions it is pretty obvious that the licencing authorities are going to crack down. Also fire works of all types.
The next thing will be limits on drinking in grounds unless the deterioration in some fan behaviour reverses.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - TitchfieldBlue - 31-05-2024
Pitch invasions are not allowed so we should be punished.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - dsmg - 31-05-2024
It’s sad really
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - BabaOReally - 31-05-2024
More than likely it'll be be for the pitch invasion when the winning goal went in rather the one at the final whistle.

Sadly we still have idiots who do nothing to enhance the reputation our magnificent club.

Worth it.
Thats a memory 20,000 + those watching on telly will have for a lifetime. What a moment of pure joy and excitement 7 years in the making.

mmmm.....I wonder if you would still be of that opinion if we're deducted 3 points and are then relegated by 1 point come the end of next season??

You seem to be in favour of football resembling a church service ffs.
If people attack other people THEY should face the law, not the club. all fining the club does is line the pockets of the hopelessly incompetent football authorities.
If you go to Germany, The Netherlands, Italy, in fact just about anywhere, the attitude to drinking in grounds, flares, pitch invasions and the like is much more relaxed.
As for drinking, most people do that outside the ground, so any restrictions in the ground are completely futile.
As has been said, this is a money grabbing exercise.
We live in a strange country where knife crime is rampant, shoplifting and other theft is tolerated, sectarian disputes are played out on our streets pretty much every week, we are on the verge war in Europe and we are worried about a few people joyously invading a football pitch.
Strange times indeed.

How are 30/40 stewards going to stop 10k out of a 20k crowd running on the pitch in joy whatever "the rules and regulations " are dunderhead?
Are Scum going to be charged & treated more harshly as their dozy fence rattling followers confronted the WBA fans?
Reading only got a 3 point suspended points deduction for pitch invasion that caused a match to be abandoned - so anything more than a slap on the wrist for us will be way over the top.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - BilltheCat - 01-06-2024
How many actually entered the field of play when the third goal went in, and how long were they there for? The highlights don't really show the extent of the "invasion".
My recollection was that players celebrated with the fans, a few came on the pitch and the players quickly ushered them off.
That's a fine, certainly.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - TitchfieldBlue - 01-06-2024
Most likely we will be fined.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - Hammie - 01-06-2024
flares and the like are less of a problem when the pitch i surrounded by a large neutral zone as in many continental grounds. In a ground like ours with no spare space and two wooden stands, they are an issue for all the reasons previously debated.

Pretty much. About a dozen maybe. Sadly there was also an 'object' thrown on the pitch a little earlier possibly at the lino which the ref collected.

It would be nice if we could crowdfund the money to pay through fine. Id chip in a figer. Shocking decision and Birch, given his ex pompey connection, should know better about our reasons. Mind you, coming after the efl sold the sport to sky, I'm not surprised.
Agree with a lot of exgaffer said. Do anything inside the ground and the book is thrown at you. Outside the ground everything is fair game at the moment. Any emotions in football are just been phased out.
And calling things 'missiles' is frankly embarrassing. Have some perspective.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - Hammie - 01-06-2024
if things were thrown then the most likely outcome is closing the front rows for a few games. a la European games
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - DeepBlue - 01-06-2024
Sheff Wed apparently got fined 50k for their promotion pitch invasion last year. Guess we might get about the same.
Hopefully the clubs success at stopping a pitch invasion after the Wigan game might count in our favour.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - Smirnoffexpress - 01-06-2024
Get the buckets out at the first few home games and have a whip around. Us fans caused the fine, only fair that us fans pay the fine. That said, fook the FA, party pooping coonts of the highest order.
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - Cliff Portwood gave me a lift - 01-06-2024
It could be planned for. Best to permit it, get the fans onside with some sort of agreement ('let the players leave the pitch initially and they will return') and seek to make it safe. Fans do respond. Remember when it was thought impossible to stop racist/homophobic chanting? Or smoking in pubs?
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - dsmg - 01-06-2024
It was just high spirits, no need for punishment. However, flares should be a big no no. A kid died a few years back in an Español game in Barcelona
RE: PFC face FA charge after Barnsley pitch invasion. - firqdays - 01-06-2024
Sadly, and hurts to say this, we are not just looking at exuberant pitch invasions; p.s. we set the trend.
I am in the lower north near the Fratton end , and it was AN item thrown at the Barnsley player, after they scored, and, yes - they wrongly over celebrated in that area near the corner - however, that will/may cost us.
And, said item handed to the Ref and transported over to the dugout area.

A statement from the FA read: ‘Portsmouth FC has been charged with misconduct in relation to crowd control at the EFL League One game against Barnsley FC on Tuesday 16 April. Portsmouth FC allegedly failed to ensure that its spectators and/or supporters (and anyone purporting to be supporters or followers) conducted themselves in an orderly fashion; didn’t behave in an improper, violent, threatening or provocative way; and/or threw missiles; and/or commit any form of pitch incursion. Portsmouth FC has until Friday 7 June to provide its response to this charge

Let that response be fuck off
