A video has gone viral on social media appearing to show Tranmere Rovers fans create absolute chaos in the stand at Rotherham this weekend.
Rovers were 1-0 down after the 73rd minute as Ben Wiles got on the scoresheet, and with it looking likely that the Millers would be coming away with three points, Stefan Payne netted a 95th minute equaliser to produce proper limbs from supporters.
The celebrations was so nuts that a steward can be seen pushed over by one fan trying to make his way onto the pitch, before others join him and advertising boards are knocked over.
Watch the drama unfold for yourself in the video below…

Tranmere boss Micky Mellon said after the game: “I always try and be sporting and we thoroughly deserved a point. It didn’t really matter when it came.
“It was just important that we got just rewards from a really good performance from our boys.
“They did everything that we asked them to do. They left nothing on the pitch and kept fighting for the fantastic support that roared us on. I was delighted that we gave them something to cheer about at the end.
“I was really, really pleased with the performance. This has set a benchmark. We have shown that we are prepared to fight at the tempo that League One is asking of you.
“We were brave and wanted to try and get something and kick-start our season.
“We were able to do that. To come here against a fancied team and go toe-to-toe with them for long periods. With due respect to Rotherham, I think we had the better chances.”
Rotherham boss Paul Warne said: “It’s a bitter blow to take that late in the game. I thought the ball went out. It’s hugely disappointing. In my opinion it’s gone out. I haven’t got all the angles but it definitely looks out.
“If you’ve got a lead, they’ve got to come at you. That’s just football. I thought we stood the pressure quite well.
“It doesn’t detract from the fact that we were poor. We played a lot better in the second half. We just didn’t move the ball quick enough first half.
“For whatever reason we didn’t perform in the first half.
“Teams come here and are happy with a point. There was no flow to the game first half. We got frustrated and it reflected in our play and in the terraces.
“We got involved in the whole frustration thing. I think they made different decisions and they got more frustrated.
“We are going to have to get used to the slowing the game down tactic and fast.”
