Mancunians questioning why Mancunian residents leave early I suppose is fair game. But, as a Mancunian, who happens to live in Leicester, every game is an away game for me. We also do most of the "real" aways. I never leave early from any weekend matches but night games I'm away 10mins from the end, in the vain hope to be home for 1am.
Don't underestimate how many long distance fans we have, there's more than you'd think.
Hopefully, for the early leaver police, a 200 mile round trip is a valid reason. If not, I would kindly ask you to fuck off.
