Last updated : 10 March 2008 By Rob Miles (barnsley Boy)

Barnsley's FA Cup celebrations could be marred by the Football Association's decision to investigate the pitch invasion either side of the final whistle in The Reds historic 1-0 victory over Chelsea.

Fans rushed on the pitch before the final whistle after thinking referee Steve Bennett had blown for full time when in fact he had blown for an offside against captain Brian Howard. Then seconds later when he did blow for full time joyous fans ran onto the pitch to celebrate with their heroes. The party pooping FA are likely to investigate though and could fine Barnsley for "poor stewarding" They are waiting Bennett's report before taking any action
