Etihad Atmosphere - 2022/23

[WNRH]

If we're in a position to win the league against Chelsea, will you stay with myself and others and enjoy the possible celebrations or will you still leave with 10 minutes to go and save yourself an hours travelling time, if you decide to stay it shows your argument is bullshit and you just follow the herd.

Why are you bothered?

I almost always stay till the very end, unless I have to be somewhere straight after, which is very rare. My point is.. people leaving early for whatever reason they do, shouldn't impact on you. Its doesn't effect or impact me.

It’s mainly season ticket holders who are leaving early out of habit. It doesn’t happen really in the champions league when season ticket holders don’t attend

That’s a great point. Every Champions League game this season has had loads of non season ticket holders sit near me and they definitely stay longer than the usual fans. Maybe they just want to appreciate being at a game?

I sit in SS3 and I can understand why fans might leave early because it can take ages to get down the stand and then queue to get out of the concourse to the exit steps. I’ve also sat in the North Stand and got out of the ground in less than a minute!

When the ground empties I always remember watching from the Kippax in the 70’s as a long line formed in the Platt Lane as fans left early. It always started with 20 minutes to go and it must have been out of habit. ‘Part time supporters!’

It definitely impacts the team though especially in 2-1 close games we should be making it hostile for leeds instead of Turning back on the players.

Think I read when they lost the European Cup final to Munich they believe they were robbed and actually deserved to win so have decided to claim victory.
Strange bunch!

I was being sarcastic as I knew they'd never been then champions of europe.

Thanks for the explanation though as I didn't know that. Well there you have it!.... the scousers aren't the only victims in football!

I’d agree about appreciating being at the game, but I honestly think lots of season tickets holders don’t really enjoy going to games. They go out of habit and because it’s what they’ve always done. it doesn’t matter what the game is, what the score is ,they’ll leave early.

You might disagree, but that’s my impression . I know quite a few season ticket holders who only really go to have a catch up with mates and the drink in town afterwards

Where have I said it impacts me, it doesn't, read my original post, they've paid their money they can do what they want, do I like it, no I don't, do I think it looks shit, yes, but it doesn't impact me in the slightest.

I know what you’re saying. It’s almost as if football is not the number one priority in the day. They probably don’t add to the atmosphere either but they do ‘pay good money’ for their season ticket.

It’s an expensive habit these days if that’s all they go for. Considering we’re in the middle of a cost of living crisis, we must have a lot of rich fans with money to waste.

I haven't read through all the replies but I was there today, block 119, lower tier South stand and the atmosphere was great almost all game. Lots of different parts singing constantly. It went a bit nervy after their goal but aside from that it was great. Leeds fans were very loud though as they always are. That didn't make our efforts poor.

Where do you sit mate as I'm in that location
