Leaving the game early

[Kaini Industries]

It doesn’t matter what game it is, what day it is or what time it’s played. The leavers leave at the same time every match.

It’s ingrained into them.

We had a Saturday game a few years ago with something like 15 minutes of injury time, there was a bad injury so everyone knew there'd be a lot, and sure enough as soon as the clock ticked over to 80:00 the exodus began.

Have to take your word for that, I left early :-)

A lot did to be honest, and some sat on the coaches for 3/4 hours if on the later flights.

Seems a quick ten years :)

I know you're likely not bothered hearing this mate, but genuinely, that's a cracking effort on a damp, shitty midweek night.

It's the one problem with moving from 4 miles away from the ground.

Gives me chance to listen to some good music driving in but it means I can't have a few scoops.

I was on site last week , worked late to finish an important facet of the job for the contractor .
Turned round and to my astonishment , Big Erling and KdB were nowhere to be seen to applaud my efforts .
Think they fucked off early too

Reminds me of watching the Platt Lane snake in the’70’s. It would start 20 minutes before the end and the Kippax used to sing ‘part time supporters’ at them. Always made me laugh when we’d get a late equaliser or winner.

I left on the final whistle last night and was back home in North Leeds at 10:45pm. As long as they don’t close the M62 and create big diversions it doesn’t usually take more than an hour and a half to get home.

Ive heard all the excuses about leaving the etihad early, from got to get the kids to bed early, traffic, look after sick relative, work etc but fuck me can anyone tell me why you'd go all the way to lisbon and want to leave with 15 mins left. Total disrespect to the players and any poor sods who couldn't get a ticket

Not having a go. All got our own stories. But,if had been 8 would u just have suffered the longer journey or left the ground at say 60 minutes

Good point. Only saw the train works when booking the train on the day. Might have given the match to a mate as up early for work. Ironically I'm always one of the first in the ground!
