Four men Escape Security after jumping into St Mary's pitch at night
Staff tried to chase down the men, who filmed themselves entering the Saints' stadium and posted the footage online.
One of the men is 20-year-old Ally Law, who was involved in a similar incident just weeks ago.
It prompted calls for a security review over the council-owned building, with Active Nation, who run the facility on behalf of Southampton City Council, confirming one would take place following the incident.
The St Mary's video, which has already been seen almost 150,000 times, shows the men entering the stadium late at night before going onto the grass and trying to open a hatch onto the roof.
Security and police were called before they then escaped through the turnstiles and out into the street.
A Hampshire Constabulary statement says: "We received a call shortly after 4am on
"Security were on scene, police did not attend."
A Southampton FC spokesman said: "The club has launched an investigation into an unauthorised entry into St Mary’s Stadium in the early hours of Monday 23rd October.
“We treat matters of security with the utmost seriousness and will be conducting a review of our security operations.”
