Leaving the game early

[denislawsbackheel]

Not getting thumped but I remember back in the day a group of us used to go to matches together.
One night City were playing a ECWC home tie against some low level foreign team.
As the game approached the final minutes and the match was at 1-1 one of the lads slipped off for a bit of R&R with a lady his wife knew nothing about.
Shortly after he’d gone Peter Barnes turned on overdrive and City scored two very late goals.
I’d have loved to have been a fly on the wall when he got home and his Mrs asked him what the score was!

Left away to Boro at 6-0 down mainly due to the fans around and police both acting up wanting trouble.

Been going every week since 2003 and think the only time I've ever left early was when we got battered 3-0 by, I think, Leicester? I think it was in the first season at the CoMS. Just remember them going 3-0 up with about ten minutes left and me and my mum thinking "Sod this" before giving up and going home. Remains the only time we've ever left early in circumstances like that. Had to leave another game early in 2012, the 1-0 win over Swansea, because I had a gig to get to straight after the match. Typically there ended up being 12 mins added on because Micah Richards fucked his knee up (again). We lasted til about the 95th minute and had to dash.

Worn was down for 10 minutes after letting in the only goal.

Worn was down for 10 minutes after letting in the only goal.

Well remembered. Was for Vorm and Richards. Had forgotten it was the longest game in PL history at the time as well.

Man City 1-0 Swansea

Manchester City stutter to an unconvincing win over Swansea City as the Premier League champions go second.

Didn’t Dickov do his knee slide celebration in front of our fans after he inevitably scored?

Keegan finally gave Berokvic a game too.

Think you're right. It was this game. Got my timings a bit wrong because we definitely didn't leave after 60 mins but think we lasted til about the 80th min and left early.

Sunderland at home in 3/3 draw.3/1 down with 5 to go.
Goals from Mario and Kolarov got us a draw in the end.

Left the Gillingham game at Wembley alongside 10s of thousands of others , all of which sharply reverse their actions despite the handful of stewards at the top of the stairs saying if you have left you can't return.

Tens of thousands? Bollocks

Tens of thousands? Bollocks

From what I saw it was 6-8000
