There were comical scenes in Gosford when a pitch invader on crutches and wearing a moon boot made it onto the field during the Central Coast Mariners’ match against Sydney FC on Saturday.

Play was interrupted for just over a minute with the Sky Blues leading 2-1 at Central Coast Stadium, when the man in a moon boot apparently evaded stadium security to wander onto the pitch.

“The question remains, why is he here and how, on crutches, did he get there?”, Fox Sports commentator Simon Hill said.

“Some pretty slack stewarding if a man on crutches in a moon boot is able to get from the stands, over the advertising boardings and onto the pitch”.

Not surprisingly, many on social media were left asking the same question.
