The player must be pushed back into an empty square if possible. If all such squares are occupied by other players, then the player is pushed into an occupied square, and the player that originally occupied the square is pushed back in turn.
Players may only be pushed off the field if there are no eligible empty squares on the field.

Yes, may. It's optional, and only an option when there are no available empty squares. At least by my interpretation anyway. Having said that, I personally have never wasted an opportunity to put 'em in the crowd either.
Huh .... guess I've never seen it that way.
But I agree with the interpretation. If you REALLY wanted to push the player on the field you could. But as has been said, 98% of coaches would choice to launch him into the crowd.
