Tell me about it. They take the "I've paid my money I'll do what the fuck I like regardless of who it affects" to the extreme. stewards just standing there doing nothing while 8/9 people just stood blocking everyone from leaving and everyone's view. Is that not the job of a steward posted on the exits?

As has been said many times on here, if you pay your money, you're entitled to leave whenever you want. But the club need to have a look at what can e done re. the North/Family/Whatever Stand. Is it ever full? It doesn't look great on the TV. The thinking behind making it a stand for families was sound enough at that time. But it just hasn't worked, has it?

I'd be a millionaire if I had a pound for that quote "It doesn't look good on tv"

That's similar to the umpteen post on this thread by city fans saying they can't handle the rags piss taking them with the Emtyhad jibes.

Who actually gives a fuck. The biggest pisstake of the lot is folk watching on tv having a pop at fans going.
Ycmiu.

He wasn't doing that though, he was asking if the club should have a rethink about the stand not being full.

Well no you're not because it inconveniences other people who want to stay to the end. The people who have to stand up to let you out and whose view you block while doing so. If you go to the theatre or to see the Halle, it's highly unlikely you'd be allowed in after the performance had started and no one leaves 5 minutes before the interval or the end of the performance. So why is it OK to do those things at a football match?

can't remember what game it was now, was this year but anyway some young lad decided he wanted to leave early, fair enough not my problem. It then became my problem as instead of walking up the steps to leave he then thought it would be a nice idea to stand on the stairs right in front of me. I made a sly dig to the person next to me saying 'if you're gonna piss off early at least do it properly and not stand right in front of me' hoping he would hear which he did and he turned round and started going mental. kept saying 'do you know who i am?' no pal and I don't wish to do so. I said there's 2 seats there empty go stand in them not in my way, he said 'why should I? this is a better view and I've paid my money so can do what I want' yes you can do what you want in your paid for seat not on the stairs blocking my view! grade A bellend

You watch the replay of Otemendi goal, empty seats in SSL1 all over not only Family Stand as you & others keep saying.
I don't care about early leavers up to the individual for me like another poster it's the fuckers who arrive 10 mins late, get up 10 mins before HT & then arrive back 10 mins late all so they can stick another 6-7 pints down there knecks.
If we are going to slag off early leavers then tell the piss heads who miss more than the 10 minutes at the end.

Why would you see empty seats in SSL1 for Ota's goal? It was scored in front of the family stand. You know, what used to be the north stand.
 
We should use The Running Man as an example. Everyone in the stadium has to wear a collar, which will explode if you go outside the stadium before the end of a game. When the final whistle blows, parameters around the concourses are set to neutral, and fans can leave safely. Problem solved.

Indeed. The North Stand appears to be an easy target for these outraged people who see seats emptying towards the end of a game. It shouldn't matter but it happens all over the stadium and always has done since I started going in the early 70's.
 
I can fully understand those fans who stay till the end,getting pissed off with the early leavers whilst trying to watch the game.
As an early leaver myself and sitting bang in the middle of a section, I never move until the ball is out of play,that way i`m not pissing off those around me.
For those who don`t know me,I leave early due to my disability but my son stays till the end,so by the time I get back to my car he is virtually only a minute or so behind me.
As someone else has stated, I to get pissed off with some fans who complain "it doesn`t look good for television" Seriously who gives a fuck about that.Only those who can`t stand up to Rags baiting you.Well Rags just fuck right off and get a full house yourself,or do you want us to ask GMP again for proof of your actual attendances ?

Ha. I thought that. 'Do you know who I am.' It is a strange thing to say. If you knew his name surely you would say ' Oy (famous young person) shift your fucking arse I am watching the game, you twat'

Maybe the poor lad was lost and confused. Maybe he was acting mental because......well he was mental.
He could still be out there wandering the streets.

Should have asked him to check the back of the collar on his jacket. It might have had his name.
 
I don't attend regularly so am not going to have a go at anyone.

If however I was a player I'd like to see that my and my teammates efforts are appreciated by being clapped off at the end, particularly if the team had just put in a wonderful performance.

Doesn't arse me personally, I'd obviously rather people stay until the end but everyone has their own choice.

What does get on my tits though is the fella who sits on our row (SS3 back row) who leaves early but if something happens on the pitch he's quite happy to stand right in front of me or my lad to watch it. That's fucking selfish in my opinion and i've told him more than once to fucking move if he's going. I'm happy to move to let anyone out but don't think you can stand in front of me if something catches your eye.

This is a debate that could/will go on for eternity. For me though, the biggest problem of all is the family stand, it never looks anywhere near full. What a waste of a stand. Time to reduce to 1 tier I think.
