You FOC!
I agree btw. There's an emotional connection and a moment of being present in that time they miss by filming/taking selfies as it happens.

They also pay £50 + for a seat where they cannot see all the game because of people walking or standing in front of them.I’d hazard a guess that your average day tripper stays longer in the ground than your average 40 year veteran.

Cricket is a very different sport to football. It was a total rout for MO tonight.
Akin to being 5-0 down at home in football.
If BP were winning, more people would have stayed.
Couple that with no one really supporting franchised teams and I don’t think it’s a good example at all.
You’re telling me a lot of stuff I already knew mate. Whether it’s a good, shit or middling example, it is an example, the first that came into my head, of something he claims happens nowhere outside of football.

Fair enough. It‘s a poor comparison for me.You’re telling me a lot of stuff I already knew mate. Whether it’s a good, shit or middling example, it is an example, the first that came into my head, of something he claims happens nowhere outside of football.

What are selfies?How about if they take selfies after they’ve applauded the team off?
I'm such an ugly **** I don't do them. Would rather clap the team off. Then say to myself FFS as in squeezing down the stand exit. Usually behind someone who lets off a bad fart, who then says "drink it in!" Whilst were trying to laugh and wretch at the same time.

I don’t think either of us are in that world. I probably take less selfies than you. I can’t afford to replace the camera lenses.What are selfies?

Tourists are there for the experience. It’s a “one off” experience for them and they’ll stick around etc and even buy shite in the club shop!
Most of us older farts have been going for years and get into a routine that we stick to. For some, that means an early dart if we’re 2+ goals in front.

No one should be vilified for going early.
We all have things going on in our lives which cM come first at the time. I recall a game at Maine Rd where we were being dicked 4-0 by Southampton and my old man has enough. We got back to me the car and Paul Moulden scored a couple to make it 4-2. As soon as James H Reeve said it on Piccadilly Radio he said "Bastards." and put his foot down princess parkway.
Nowadays. I go by myself so I don't feel the need to go early when I'm able to get to a game.

I never leave early. That’s my choice based on me being a tight fart who wants as much value for money as possible.I get that.

I don’t leave even if we’re being dicked.
That’s me. I can totally understand if others think differently, even if I don’t fully understand it.
I don’t hang around after the full time whistle generally, but did at the weekend to applaud Haaland.
Care to explain why?It bloody well does mate
