I am in the Colin Bell and I do walk quickly to get the 10.36 Wilmslow train. I normally gey there with a few mins to spare.
It's certainly doable in 25 minutes but that's a very steady pace. The hardest bit is trying to get past the slower people and dawdlers.

That sounds like me :) What Stand are you in ?
Don’t feel the need to defend myself, but I will…
I leave early, about 85-90 minutes. 90 v Newcastle as still waiting to figure out with injury time.
We park in blue car park and our in Kits.
We leave and run down the spiral, into the car and usually grab last few minutes on radio or the boy watches Sky Go.
We can usually get out of the car park and through the lights (that’s the tricky part as otherwise you can be spend a long time there).
If I get through the lights before being stuck door to door I can get back in about half a hour. Without can be a hour or so +.
I am quite often going out or have plans or want to see my family and also don’t really like sitting I traffic fighting for every inch.
We get there about 40 minutes before KO and watch the warm up.
Do go a couple of minutes before HT to get a seat, but one of the few up for second half before the start.
Other times I go with my mate, we have a beer before, get up just as KO, go in probably 5 before HT and can be around 5 after as we normally have 2 and can see game on TV. Stay to the end and have a beer then walk back to town and get the train.
Probably miss around a similar time but don’t leave early.
Pay my money and my choice, don’t really get the dislike for the early leavers.

But what if EVERYBODY decided to leave at 80 minutes ? Seriously people saying, yes but I have to get home for Tiddles feed etc etc (every shite excuse under the sun) if every one did leave at 80 minutes, I don't think we would have a club as we do now...so EVERYBODY who stays to the end is CARRYING EVERY fucker who decides to leave early...wankers...
