Thousands of fans invaded the pitch once the full-time whistle was blown despite a stern warning from the club earlier in the day.
A statement read: 'The Club wishes to remind supporters that it is crucial the pitch is kept to its usual high standards, given we still have a home game on the final day of the season.

'At the end of last season, some clubs witnessed unsavoury and unwelcome scenes with a small minority of people entering the field of play whilst other fans took to the pitch in a celebratory mood.
'It is a criminal offence to enter the pitch and the real-life consequences for these actions have been felt by many with some fans receiving criminal records which can impact employment, education prospects and international travel.'
A corner after 17 minutes led to Lee’s opener following a frantic goalmouth scramble after Mullin’s header was blocked.
It took last season’s National League champions just six minutes to double their lead.
Lee was again involved, releasing James McClean, who picked out Mullin at the back post to head in his 24th of the season.

Thoroughly dominant in the first half, Wrexham’s third came as defender Eoghan O’Connell tried his luck from distance. His shot took a cruel deflection off Inniss which left goalkeeper Vicente Reyes helpless.
There was still time for Mullin to hit Wrexham’s fourth before half-time.
A corner was only half-cleared to the unmarked striker on the edge of the area and his shot deflected into the goal.
Barnett got in on the act in the second half with a stunning volley from McClean’s cross to make it 5-0.
And Marriott completed the scoring six minutes from time as Wrexham and their Hollywood star owners could celebrate promotion with two games to spare.
Next season will be Wrexham's first in the third tier since the 2004-05 campaign. It's also the first time the Welsh club have been promoted in successive seasons.
League Two leaders Stockport will join them in the third tier after they beat Morecambe 2-0.
