Me too Nothing gives anyone the right to judge others leaving. They paid just like you. I don't leave esrly but if I did my journey home would be about 45 mins less minimum. At up to two hours that's a big difference. Stop feeling angry as if you have the right to be as a better supporter. It's just narcissistic bollocks.
What about the north stand singing " we stay to the end " while you could see North standers leaving? #Priceless
You are right there, it took me 40 minutes to get onto the Clive Sullivan way, normally takes 15- 20 minutes.
I agree with this, i never leave early but can understand it a little for those with long journeys. My gripe is for those who seem to miss half the game: arrive late, up at 35 mins to get a hot dog, up at 60 mins for the toilet, leave a few minutes early. Idiots. You're not just missing the game but interrupting the viewing of those behind/next to you.
Aye made me laugh too. Saw a post on ci saying the most fervent supporters in north shaming all the plastics in west!! **** me talk about deluded
I wrote my two posts on this thread last night when I was steaming pissed, and I'm pleasantly surprised this morning to find that they make sense.
Why don't you park away from the ground near cod? Must be quicker to walk up and jump in the car! i see lots do it! Unless you struggle walking then it's different? I don't understand people who leave early I make post match part of my day! But obviously people have other things to do.
The only thing you can be indignant about is being disturbed by them. I sit on the front row, so I am fortunate not to have to stand up ever for anyone.
The couple that sit next to me and usually not in their seats when it kicks off, always leave 5 minutes before half time I assume to get a drink, and are never are back in their seats until 5 minutes after the 2nd half has kicked off, and then leave 5 minutes before full time. I guess they pay their money they can do what they like, but cannot understand why.
Nice use of selected quotation. The song was "We're Hull City, we stay to the end" so it applies as much to those in the North Stand leaving early as those in the West.
My Dad and i were talking about this, if you sit in the front row how much of the last 10 mins of play do you think you miss with people walking in front of you? Although obviously this depends which stand you're in.
West stand near dugout. No one walks past. Most of them walk up the stairs to the concourse as they aren't stupid enough to walk along the pitch front. Get a few kids trying to slope close to the dugout to get signatures but the stewards shoo them off. And they are smaller than the wall in front anyway! I'd move higher up for a better view but the benefit of having leg room and little disturbance from anyone around or in front is hard to give up. I sympathise with those who have to out up with the constant up and down to facilitate people who can't sit still for 45 minutes.
I've never parked near the ground, last 5 or so years I've parked on Strickland St off Hessle RD. Walk up Coltman St & you're there in 20 mins. After the game nip through the little road & onto the slip road off the Clive Sully Way, round the roundabout & back onto the A63. I was driving passed Leeds around 6 yesterday & home in South Cheshire before half 7. People do pay their money & can do what they like but for me there's no explanation as to why they'd want to do it. You know where you're going, when it starts, how long it lasts & when it finishes. Wise up, make plans.
A couple of lads in front of me left after about 88 minutes. Me and my mates left a couple minutes after the whistle and we saw the other lads watching the TV in the concourse. What's the point?
