Early Leavers

[Danielmanc]

I've left early for years.mainly because of superstition.cos every time I leave we score.so I believe sacrificing the last 5mins in order for us to get the result I've been praying for,for the other 85 mins is worth it.everyone has there own reasons,what it has to do with anyone else is beyond me,just because u stay till the end doesn't mean your a better fan!!

If you don't come at all we could win by loads :-)

It's routine, for the majority of games i leave when the board is up unless we have a chance of going for a winner, those extra 2 mins is vital for where i park as i can get away quickly or i can sit in traffic for 30 mins. I left yesterday but saw the goal at the top of the steps.

If the roads around the ground were suitable for easy getaway then the majority of people would stay, they are a mess though.

Got to say the early leavers annoy me too. It is a free country and people can of course do what they want but it creates a negative image for the club and at a time when we should be backing the team with 44000 screaming voices we end up with 10 minutes of "Excuse me" as the early leavers rush home to watch Ant and Dec or X factor. On Saturday every early leaver was telling the team "I don't think you will score so I am going home early". i.e. No belief in the team. That must affect the players and therefore the club. Which, again, is why it annoys me. It does matter.

It effected them to the point they scored a last min winner?

Imagine you are a kid and your Dad has come to watch you on the local pitch. How would you feel if you saw your Dad walking away shaking his head before the end? Would you want to go that extra yard to please that Dad? Or would you rather have the Dad on the other side of the pitch shouting to his offspring "Come on son, you can do it". It does matter.

Shoot me down but I often leave early for various reasons including nerves (if close) and even superstition at one point!! Not sure it deserves a weekly thread but I Can understand why people query it, personal preference means you cannot sometimes understand why people do things that you would not do yourselves.
I cannot understand why people think you would be disappointed when you miss a goal. I am a City fan and delighted if City score whether sat in my seat or not. For me being gutted about missing a goal are more the actions of a day tripper than a true blue.

Cheeky bastard(meant in the nicest possible way)-I aint a day tripper and I left early-I had to go to work...I was gutted about missing the goal because I never normally leave early but tonight I had to.
What's the next thread gonna be about-If your a blue member or gold you are a lesser blue...F.F.Sake..It really does not matter if people leave early. Why it bothers so many really makes me chuckle.Must have fuck all to worry about in their small minded lives....

Where is pop corn cat...

Not being funny BUT, what kind of job requires you to be in work on a Saturday evening? Are you a bouncer or work in a take away? You might want to look at getting a better job with more sociable working hours

A job that pays 35k per annum and a select few on here know what line of work my wife are in!! I am glad you are bigger blue than me fanny fart,i aint gonna sleep well tonight now....
If youd read my earlier post i explained that i have only ever left early once before again through work issues.When you have a family,children,a wife who is due to drop this week...missing 5mins really isn't a problem in the great schemes of things.get a life mate and fucking well grow up...I bet you are a booer aswell...

I think this thread may have run it's course now, especially when people are having to defend themselves

Is there anything else to say on the subject?

An over-exaggerated and pointless comparison.

Lots of jobs require weekend or evening work. The NHS doesn't shut the doors of a Hospital at 5pm on a Friday night. It's not really your business as to what St. Helens Blue does for a living. If he working then he's working.

Do people actually write this shit?
I dont leave early unless its like the Villa game where the team were just going through the motions at the end,if the club sorted out the shite car parking situation Im sure you would see less people leave early.
