I’ve sent it to Martin as I don’t know how to upload them onto here.

Somebody jumped out of there, stark naked, and had a run round on the pitch. Stewards were chasing him but he managed to evade them all, get back onto the terrace and disappear into a crowd. By the time the stewards got in there he was fully clothed and I would imagine there wasn't any decent CCTV to identify him so he got away with it completely.
This is also the same incident as above.
I was tipped off about this incident otherwise I would’ve gone down the other end and missed it. My mate is a Gills fan & he was in the away end. At half time I was talking to him & he told me that they’d been having a whip round to pay for this lads train fare home in case he got nicked. He’d only do it if they raised enough cash. So I went back and sat down in the same place I was in rather than go to photograph our attack and not long after the second half kicked off out he came, ran over to Ian Bowling, shook his hand then ran back into the away fans!
