Correct! some of our fans are rubbish, theyve forgotten what support is. They sing "we fight to the end" but dont stay till the end!! Those with genuine reasons exempt, but the thousands who left early yesterday for no reason , fk off.troadie said:I'm sure some people have good reasons for leaving early but not the amount that bailed out yesterday. Of course people are entitled to do what they want but personally I just don't understand it, we have got a high quality team with world class players, this is the type of stuff we used to dream about, I could understand fucking off early with some of the shit we've had to watch in the past but I find it really poor if people can't stay a few extra minutes to clap the team off.
Dont think the ten thousand or so who couldnt be arsed watching the last 5 mins were on the north car park, or any other one. Was like watching Lemmings following each other. As soon as some left it was like a zombie mass exodus. Pathetic support.(once again, genuine reasons not included in criticism)Stretford Born Blue said:I always stay for the final whistle but have got a great parking spot if I drive which means I'm home for 5-30 ish for a 3pm KO. Its all in the planning...!
The Official City car parks are horendous for getting out because roads on Alan Touring Way and Ashton New Road become pedestrian priority. It will get worse when an extra 10000 are at the stadium, so start planning now.!!
If I use the tram then its back to town for a drink first.
Problem is, the area around the ground is an island and closed off to traffic etc towards the gas thingy's and towards the new met line. That leaves just 2 roads away from the ground and they clogg up quicker than quick glogging up thing.
When the tram finally opens it will be chaos right after the game whilst fans queue and fight to squeeze onto the trams, I'll be off to the Mitchells for an hour, then jump on the tram, or walk towards town. I quess loads will leave early to get on the trams next...?!

Tell you what.... If we promise to stop to the end will all the piss heads promise to drag themselves away from the bar and get in their seats earlier enough to greet the team as it comes out?... For me just as important as a full house prior to kick off helps to build an atmosphere that's generally sadly lacking from our stadium at present.
