Video: Disabled pitch invader at Chesterfield

There’s some wheelchairs on the pitch. They think it’s all over…

We have been on the lookout for this clip since the weekend and it has now been tracked down by our friends at 101GG.

When Chesterfield bagged a later winner during their final game at Saltergate, the emotion was too much for many fans and there was a mini pitch invasion. And the outburst of delight was not restricted to able-bodied members of the crowd.

One disabled fan mounted a two-wheel pitch invasion as he drove his wheelchair onto the playing area. He was swiftly followed by someone who is presumably his carer, who swiftly takes him off the pitch before the stewards get chance.

If anyone has a video of the post-match interviews at the Aldershot-Morecambe game, give us a shout as we would like to bring that to you too.
