Bristol City have reminded fans that entering the field of play at any stage during Saturday’s final game of the season at Ashton Gate against Burnley is against the law and anyone identified will receive a ban for the start of next season.
With City’s concluding match of the campaign at QPR on May 8, the visit of the Clarets will be their last in BS3 of 2022/23. As is customary after the final whistle, players, staff and their families will take part in a walk of thanks around the field, sharing the moment with fans.
Last season, following the Robins 5-0 win over Hull City, a significant number of supporters spilled onto the Ashton Gate turf at the final whistle to mob players which then subsequently disrupted the post-match walk. Han-Noah Massengo and Antoine Semenyo were among the players who were crowded, albeit mainly of a friendly and celebratory nature.
