Avoiding traffic is more important than city

[ChesterRdBlue]

I went on 89. Because I had to get the 5.30 train back home for the short 4 hour and twenty minute ride home and also because I like running with my arms outstrectched like a plane, unhindered down the spiral pretending to be a spitfire.

Haha, I'm actually going to leave earlier next time just to try that.

I went for a piss on 88 but I went back to my seat since we are all fessing up, by the way I missed the first goal as well, I was getting a brew, I once nicked 50p from my sisters piggy bank as well!

I feel better now

I thought it was a pretty poor game to watch. The keeper's time wasting set the tone. Ok we got 4 goals but there was no passion from either team. At 4-0 I knew we had won so nipped off at 90 mins. No shame and to the OP. You can only be insulted if you choose to be.

There is a traffic issue which will be relevant to some...the away coaches get precedence and can cause us to miss the start of Ant and Dec.

I will try once again.......

You do not see such mass evacuation at any other prem stadium on such a regular basis.
Is it because we have shit fans or do the club need to get involved and find out what really is the reason our fans are snubbing the team.

People will disagree but I watch quite a lot of games and haven't seen anything on the level of our early leavers when the home team isn't losing. United's ground empties fast but I'm not sure I've seen anything like yesterday, from my view that was the biggest evacuation (while we were winning) I can remember at the ground. Didn't have to queue up to get out of my aisle like usual at full-time because about 60% had gone.

Do you think we have shit fans?
I don't - though some of the threads bluemoon throws up from time to time tests my resolve.
I also doubt that anyone who leaves early considers themselves as snubbing the team, just as I doubt the players feel snubbed at the final whistle because people have left.

I do agree with somebody earlier in the thread who said about leaving early when the games on a knife edge and the result is uncertain. If that's just to beat the traffic then it's a little strange but each to their own.

Did someone seriously say "snubbing the team"?

Not quite up there with the word "distraught" that was bandied around earlier but yep, we're just a bunch of snubbers!! :-)

I left yesterday when it was 86mins, because I've had a operation on my leg and walking is quite difficult and painful at the moment..... And I pay my money so il leave when I want!!!

Any chance you could bring a note from your doctor to the next game?

It might diminish the embarrassment and humiliation of those that sit around you, if you can provide proof of your medical history.
