    Given there was 5 minutes injury time,it equated to 10 minutes...more than 10%.

    That was £1.60 plus wasted there......

    Well yeah, but I was talking generally that if someone always leaves on 85 mins they're on average going to miss 10% of the game.

    And is this a home thing only? I dont imagine people going away would ever in a million years contemplate leaving on 85 with the score at 1-1. If anything that should be more prevalent as people will have further to travel so want to get home earlier.

    What you think the definition of a Chav is someone who is prepared not to put up with abuse and to take responsibility for their own situation?

    Get an education.

    The word Chav hadn't even been coined when I was at school. As for it's definition, I suggest there are plenty of sources around for me not to have to educate you.

    Obviously education at your school didn't include punctuation.

    You said once your son would flatten anybody who stood up in front of them. You must be proud of someone with such a lack of control. Presumably if he comes off worse you will tell him the other person obviously wasn't putting up with abuse and taking responsibility for their own situation?

    Here hang on, I know what chav means. Why am I being dragged into this definition argument? I just thought it was odd to suggest getting an education to learn what it means when I doubt many education establishments would cover that subject.

    I would suggest that your memory is somewhat selective with the aim of supporting your weak standpoint.

    Only for people who tell other people they need an education whilst displaying a lack of one themselves.

    So you didn't say your son would thump somebody if they blocked his view?

    Oh I see, like those who use the word "Chav" in a context that clearly illustrates they don't know the meaning of the word?

    If someone always leaves 5 minutes before the 90 minutes, were they actually leaving on time if they still did that on Saturday?

    A relative of mine who manages to get there on his own via train always has to leave a few minutes early. He has special needs and has a taxi waiting for him to take him home ;about 30 miles away). He has been going for years and does this as a few years ago he was verbally abused by away supporters at the station. So it's safer for him to do this-he can't leave that early though as he saw the last goal apparently.
