Former Northern Ireland goalkeeper Maik Taylor has warned of “serious” repercussions if post-match pitch invasions are allowed to continue in the English game.
He also suggested relevant stewarding or security should be in place to allow opposition players at least five minutes to vacate the pitch at the end of high-stake games.
Taylor's warning came a couple of hours after Everton fans stormed onto the playing surface following Thursday night’s 3-2 win over Crystal Palace, a result that secured the club’s Premier League safety.
