Well, I did stay and De Bruyne was the only one who properly acknowledged all areas of the ground.

not surprised when they turn round for the adulation to see a half-empty stadium.

I agree, it’s a two way thing.
Free seasoncard to a random person still in their allocated seat space 5 minutes after the whistle?
3 times per season, games not revealed
Someone from family stand is bound to win- as usual

Do you remember the arsenal game when we were 4 nil down, at home, after about 30 seconds? Great arsenal team then led by Henry.
That was brutal to watch!!! Lol!!
Cant knock Watford fans, though their anger will be better directed to Norwich tbf, cos they were the ones who started this shit and got MCFC all annoyed, and stuff!! ;)

Thought it was funny - the Watford fan who rang 606 and said that after what the media had reported about us after the Norwich defeat - he genuinely thought Watford could beat us!

Pathetic effort by Watford fans bringing such little support to the premier league champions. I reckon Bournemouth will bring more to our ground and that’s much further away

Cant knock any fans who cant/ wont travle to away games .It such a cost now a days plus people have more important things to do .not everyone can afford to go to the games

First couple of minutes are the best bits. After that it’s the suburbs. Nice skyline sunset at the end.

seeing as large chunks of our own fans couldn't show the respect of staying till the end and applauding our own players off for such a stunning effort, we hardly have the right to criticise other supporters, especially when so many stayed as long k as they did given the circumstances, in fact many stayed longer than some of our own fans which is disgraceful.

Well I am not ashamed to say that I left when the board went up for the added time. As long as the stadium is served by such appalling public transport systems then I will continue to do so. On Saturday because of the Metrolink engineering work at Cornbrook I had to get there by a convoluted route:

• Car from Timperley to my sons house in Baguley
• Metrolink from Martinscroft to Manchester Airport
• Train from the airport to Piccadilly
• Metrolink from Piccadilly to the stadium

Post match I repeated the journey in reverse. I am buggered if I am going to hang around at the end of the match, I have put in enough effort beforehand.

If you go through that much effort then why not allow a bit extra to stay to the end? Lots of us travel one heck of a lot further and still find the time to stay?

I travel 270mile round trip and if I leave 10 mins before the end I suspect that I would beat the heavy traffic but I have never left before the final whistle and never will. Allow the extra time.

For a minute there I thought that was one of the stands at the swamp

I travel over 450 miles, round trip. A twelve hour day. I haven't got a season card and therefore have to pay the high match day prices. I wont leave early nor arrive late. I want as much bang for my buck as possible.
