Another bullshit statement from Big Ben. OLM will confirm I only use one account. And why I changed mine.
Still, carry on being your usual stupid self.

Bemoaning somebody being “stupid”. Does that not seem a bit rich coming from you?

Still carry on being your usual stupid self.

People who don't go to games complaining about people who do go to games leaving early ?

Fair point. But doesn’t mean you can’t wonder why so many do it. All teams have people who leave early if they are 3 or 4 down but we have a lot of people who leave if we are hanging on to a lead, chasing an equaliser or if we have played well rushing off instead of applauding the team. There used to be a bloke near me in East Stand with 2 kids who always left early. My lad pointed out to me that it was always when the clock showed 82 minutes had gone.

maybe he didn't want to sit in a car log jammed in the car park for 30 minutes - maybe the kids just wanted to get home - maybe he could see where his kids where when there wasn't everyone leaving at the same time in a crush - maybe he had a long way to travel and getting home at 8 was late anyway, never mind 8 30 if he'd stayed until the end - maybe they waited at the mouth of tunnel and left at the final whistle - maybe, maybe, maybe - many people have different reasons, all of which are important to themselves

They weren’t little kids. And he always went straight up and out of the concourse. Why do you think these problems are unique to some of our fans? They don’t seem as common elsewhere.

Maybe they had to catch a train. What’s it to you?
 
Did Figs make any contact on Palmer for the penalty? At the game it looked like a stone wall one, but the YouTube highlights make it look like there's no contact

we need to tighten up at the back - we have joint the worst defensive record in the division - some of the defence maybe good going forward but they are struggling with defensive duties - we either stick with what we have or replace with better - personally I think Acun will go with better

Do you not think it’s the midfield that’s the problem as they get played through too easily??

Personal insult. Well done. Usually comes accompanied with a foot stamp when a stupid person realises they have nothing left to offer.

Laughable from the man who dishes out insults but blubbers, appropriate word, when someone says anything about him.

Can’t be bothered with you anymore today, so cheerio.

that's a fair point - but once they've past midfield the defence aren't dealing with it - it also doesn't help when our back line think they're Man City and try and play it out from the back - it invariably gets messy because we faff about and eventually play an under hit pass which creates even more pressure - worse defensive record in league, most shots against and keeper with most saves - not good stats - at the moment we're scoring more than we let in - lets hope the scoring doesn't dry up

Figueiredo yesterday gave me anxiety every time he had the ball in possession and passed it around at the back. Greaves and Alfie sometimes fart-arse too much but Figueiredo stood out as poor and nervous yesterday.

Great points. I had a spell a couple of years ago when I would hang back at the end (I’m not a fan of early leaving myself) because I struggled with Walking in close crowds for a while. Others would legitimately leave early to achieve the same end.

Some people will have very good reasons for leaving early, and of course it's their choice. But must admit I sometimes think we seem to have more than most, and do sometimes wonder if for some of them it would be a great hardship to stay and applaud the team off. Plus I wonder how many last minute dramas they've missed over the years. Can't pretend it doesn't irritate me, but can't see what can be done about it (unless of course Acun tells 'em to stay in which case they probably would at the moment!)
