Fans leaving early.

[Blue Is the Opposite of Blue]

If the result's already in the bag ie 2 goals up it's perfectly normal to leave a few minutes early.

Do you all stay to the end of the credits when watching films at the cinema ?

Poor analogy. We stay to the end of the film. Maybe you don't?

Credits are a part of the film

Why not stay to see the name of the 4th assistant director, won't he be offended if you don't ?

I sometimes leave early and sometimes don't ,I leave when I want,I park where I want.I don't give a fuck who doesn't like it ,or who thinks it looks bad on TV !

We get the picture

To leave or not to leave, this has really divided City fans on here.

What I find strange is some people are really happy and proud to be leaving early rather than complaining to whoever to get the traffic and car parking improved.
Sure many people have other things to do but you don't see the mass exit on the scale seen at The Etihad at any other prem club, unless of course the home team are being hammered 6-1.

Perhaps if more leave early we could see a completely empty stadium at the final whistle and they could play "We are not really here" over the tannoy :-)

Well the stupidity of having to ask a question is beyond belief.Arrogant supporters,because they leave earlier than those "MASSIVE" fans like you who stay till the end ?? Fuck me do you want a badge you glory hunting bigger than thee fan.We shouldn`t have to give you any reasons as to why we wish to leave the ground early,unless you`ve paid for my fucking ticket and I aint reimbursed you.
I commit myself to a ST as I go to all home games (except when my disability wont allow me) ,including Cup games and have done for near on five decades.Is that OK with you sunshine ??

Sorry mate, think your heads gone. The guy I replied to said that he would get off at 1-0 if the game 'wasn't exciting'. That is the most ridiculous reason for leaving a game ive ever heard, and to me it sounds a bit arrogant. Fair enough if your bored of watching your team then go but I just can't understand why anyone would do that.

Not really sure where the glory hunting part comes into it, but yes if you can post me a badge out ill wear it on Sunday just for you :)

My heads gone ?? !! Think you`ll find I was answering your question as to why people would leave early,unless disabled and not for anything normal,like wanting to get home earlier,not wanting to be stuck in traffic.Those are legitimate reasons in my eyes,but unfortunately not yours it appears.
Strap the fookers into their seats until Chris says its time to go. ;)

"Wanting to get home earlier" - why not leave at half time and then take full adavantage of a further 45 mins looking at your dining room table? Or, and this is something the early leavers may not have considered...don't go - instead spend the full 90 minute match-experience in a much-vaunted alternative of re-varnishing your shed/putting a new duvet on the bed/watch the bonus edition of Ant and Dec - "available to non-match goers only"/calibrating the mileage on your 5 door saloon - it'll need doing 'cos all that waiting at the Etihad will now no longer affect your much loved petrol consumption.

Early leavers - coming to a B&Q near you.

well listen carefully if we left at half time we might miss knowing the result, seeing 2-3-4 goals, if we leave at 3-0 up with 3/4 mins to go we know the result and maybe once in a bluemoon might miss 1 goal, also i dont need to leave at half time 3/4 mins is fine and my indian doesn't open til 5 anyway.

I can understand why people get annoyed with early leavers, but the fact is that it's their money, their choice and shouldn't affect you in the slightest. To use the film analogy again, would you be angry with someone if they got up and left 5 minutes before the end of a film if the story had come to a close? I don't think so.

If it looks bad on TV then so what? Only Twitter chino wankers and saddo freaks care about attendances and empty seats enough to let it spoil their day. As long as you stay sat in your seat and you're happy with that then let everyone else do what they want to do, as long as they're not intending to offend someone.

Precious folk on here.

There is no 'mass exodus' as you put it. This is what the rags and media like everyone to think.

The fact is, our seats are bright blue so it is more obvious when they are empty.

A similar number of fans leave at other grounds.<br /><br />-- Tue Feb 25, 2014 4:54 pm --<br /><br />

Or those of us who leave early should be singing in the streets back to our cars "we are not,we are definatly not there ...".
