    Yeah but sometimes the crowd leaves at half time when they are getting hammered, so no wonder they get a reduced rate.

    They're probably trying to encourage people to bring their kids, as it should be safer now.

    No we don't ever, I've never seen the main doors open for people to leave at half time in my whole time following the club. They go to the concourse early for beer because the service is slow. We can watch the end of the 1st half on the TVs but not at the start of the 2nd half. Missing the end of the first half to go a queue makes so much more sense than missing the start of the first half. <doh>

    Thing don't change much round here. Little children still taking pointless inaccurate swipes. Rest of you good normies though. Hope everyone is well. You're having a good season, helped me be very successful at the bookies this season. Cheers Hull :)

    There are even jokes about it "When I go and watch Sunderland I leave at full time to avoid the crowds."

    Plenty of tv footage of Sunderland fans last season scuttling home long before the end after another first half drubbing.

    Sorry.

    We're both ****. I wish we had Sunderland's numbers and passion in our fanbase, but he's right that they have an embarrassing walkout every time they go a few goals down whereas our fans seem to just have a laugh about it when we're getting hammered.

    But you said half time which is complete bollocks, now you're just completely changing tack, a worm squirm is you will. I've not said we don't leave early. Any team who getting a battering at home have fans who leave in droves. EVERY TEAM. Even Hull. It's a fact of football.

    (this was a hull Home defeat to West Ham)

    So basically all you're saying is we had a lot of bad home defeats. Very impressive knowledge <doh>

    The Mail<doh>. No we didn't I was there, people went to drink. Funny all those pictures in the article yet not one of a single fan leaving the stadium. Do The Mail plant reporters outside exit gates on the off chance? Off course they don't which is why they didn't have a clue and just guessed as the Fail does. More fool you if you swallow that tripe. Gabby scored on 38 and we all left to go for a pint about 2 minutes earlier when the crowds start to go out back. It was ****ing heaving on the concourse. What with me being there in among it. And the exits doors remained closed so not enough wanted to leave to warrant the gates being opened. Some may have left but not many. Must have been a couple of k who stayed at the bars until they stopped serving though. Not much more to be said, You're convinced off the back of a Fail article, I know for a fact because I was there out back where the exit gates are. <ok>

    Arf.

    I'm not getting involved in the general argument, they've got much better support than us, but I particularly like his "were the Mail outside exit gates watching the crowds?" withering criticism and then he follows is up with "I was on the concourse and it was heaving" and "I know for a fact because I was there out back where the exit gates are". Well, you weren't outside every exit gate either so how can you possibly know if people were leaving all around the ground or not?
