How many slipped out early today?


The whole fans-leaving-early recurring rant will never be resolved. It irritates some fans, me included, but having a pop will never shame the early leavers into changing their routines, whatever their reasons.
To be honest, what angers me more is the number of fans who regularly leave their seats for the refuge of the concourse/toilets.
There's one guy who sits a couple of rows in front of me in the East Stand who regularly gets up and weaves his way out (forcing everyone on his row to stand) on about 25 minutes. Then we have the reverse balls-ache when he returns. He's off again at least five minutes before half time.
Second half he sods off out of his seat again on about 65 minutes and then, of course, he scampers away at least six or seven minutes ahead of the final whistle.
He's either got a bladder the size of a small balloon or he's a mighty prick of the highest order.
Oh, and he's got a classic Paul Weller "Jam" haircut...so he thinks he'll do. Given his constant trips he could complete the whole experience by singing "Going Underground" and we could give the toss-pot a round of applause!
So on top of everything else he’s a fuckin “Wellend”
 
My little world?
I'm not having a pop at the support., but if you are going to turn out, show up on time and stay till the end.
Of course you’re having a pop at the support. Don’t you see how sackless your leaving before the end threads are, when you can’t be arsed to support yourself? Laughable
I don't get why other people care about others leaving.
Its strange.
Particularly when they don’t go themselves.

Not really strange, Bonzo. It gives an impression of a lack of care, even if the fan(s) concerned are proper supporters. Does the team on the pitch want to face a stadium rapidly emptying long before the final whistle? Of course not.
Do other fans want to be up and down like fiddlers' elbows to let the "Scuse me" brigade out of their rows while the game carries on? No.
It's not strange that fans who stay the course don't like it.
But it won't stop the early leavers from leaving early.

Bullshit. The whole matchday experience is absolute shite.
With old age, I refuse to accept it.
Up down, up down, kernts turning up 10 minutes after kick off, then up again 10 minutes before ht. Fuck that, give me me a packed Fulwell with my feet barely touching the floor anyday.
The last time you attended a game. :rolleyes:

I think it’s always happened to be honest. It’s just obvious to see in all seaters, with the up and down, and clearly obvious empty seats. Was harder to spot in the fulwell, Roker etc. personally I’ve left early twice in the last couple of seasons. vs Stoke a couple of weeks ago, and away at the farce at Bolton

Don’t understand the mentality of people leaving when we’re pushing to win like yesterday.

Understand even less people having a go at people leaving when they don’t attend at all.
 
By standing at the bottom of the stairs you obstructed the view of fans still in their seats so causing them to stand. Fans behind them had to stand to see over the top of the fans who had stood because you obstructed their view.
See the trouble you started. Should be ashamed of yourself.

Everyone had already gone home. Ask the OP.

Also I was walking down the stairs when the final whistle went, not standing as that’s a nobhead thing to do.

Baffles me how people can leave early in situations like yesterday. Stoke game, yes I get why you'd fuck off after the 4th or 5th went in, but surely you wouldn't want to miss a potentially late winner from us yesterday. And we were pushing for the winner. I get the argument of people pay so entitled to do what they want etc but it looks daft and I'll never get my head around it. Unless we were lifting a cup at the end or playing the Mags, I think we have people streaming out no matter what the case, I can't understand it personally. Takes me 20 mins extra getting home to what it does getting there, which is double, because of traffic. Not life changing that. Stay and clap the young lads off after a good performance anorl 👏

It's ridiculous people streaming out at 1-1 don't see it happening at many other grounds.

Looks embarrassing the amount of empty seats ..

Yes it's up to people what they do but I just don't get it ..
