Fisher: Football Banning Orders For Pitch Invasions

Last updated : 22 December 2016 By CNS Sport

Coventry City Chairman Tim Fisher has said that Football Banning Orders will be issued to any City supporter identified as having been on the pitch during the defeat to Sheffield United last week.

The game was stopped on a couple of occasions due to supporters being on the pitch and speaking to Jim White on Talksport, Mr Fisher said: "Everyone is being identified, and the bad news for those people who are identified, is that it's not just a ban from the Ricoh.

"The police are involved and it's a full banning order which means they have their passports taken off them when they want to travel, and there's a sporting event happening abroad.

"So I am afraid there is no tolerance for this.

"I don't want any other football supporters going on the pitch, and if they do want to go on the pitch, they have to know what the outcome is.

"They will be banned."
