Did anyone notice the mass exodus at about 80 minutes from the stands? Anyone who ****s off and leaves before the final whistle can **** off for good for me. If the lads on the pitch decided "**** it we're off now" we'd go mental. I just can't understand it.Anyway if your guilty and reading this you're a ****.
Does that include me? Is my seasonpass cheaper because I may leave a couple of minutes early? Travelling to 99% of home games from Birmingham where leaving a couple of minutes before the end can mean the difference between getting home at 7:15 and 8pm which really fuxx up your Saturday night when your Mrs is ready to go out, or at midnight or 1am on a midweek match. So think about that, my day for a home game on a Saturday is nearly 5 hours longer than most and midweek games mean I have to take an afternoon off so I reckon leaving a few minutes early is a small price to pay? Don't forget, not everyone who follows City live on Princes Ave or Anlaby Road!
you see the same people buying a loaf of bread in tescos and at the cash register they give back 6 slices!
i used to sit next to people who left early. they said it was to avoid the rush to get out of the car park. they often missed goals. it meant i had three seats to stretch out in.
perhaps they leave early from everything. it might be a lifelong compulsion. so they never know how a film ends, they always miss pudding, they leave hospital surgery without having their insides stitched back in, they never know how books end, they're never quite sure if great-great-uncle albert got buried or not, they don't bother to get dried and changed after going swimming, and so on. or perhaps they fear dying of starvation.
You'll get people justifying why they themselves have to leave early , I don't believe everybody who leaves early has to work that night or lives 500 miles away though Seems to be getting even worse , the problem for me is I am near an exit and people just stand near the exit and block the view but don't actually leave , stewards bugger off from there at 80 mins and usually fans trying to watch the game nearly come to blows with people who want to stand near the exit
Where did you crawl from? The lads on the pitch are being paid to be there .... Fans of any kind pay to be there ... If I want to leave a couple of minutes early to save an hour getting back to Cambridge then it's F..ck all to do with you.
I left early for the first time in years on saturday, purely because i was supposed to start work at 4. Oops. (Got there for quarter past 5). Strange really because i am a huge critic of people who leave early. I appreciate people make big trips into Hull or have work, and especially as the game was prety much over at 3 nil. But people leave good entertaining games before they are finished. Why bother coming if you are gonna miss the outcome. Especially if it hasn't been decided. Oh, and whilst I'm whinging, why bother to leave early just to collect on the concourse around the tellies?
Says NEWLAND tiger ..... no one has to justify leaving early ... but as you say if your leaving early don't stand in-front of those who choose to stay.
i think people have hit the nail on the head above, most people dont leave and miss the end, they watch it from the concourse or the stairs etc... i dont do it at home, but often watch the last 2 minutes from a similar position away from home.. if your at the back of the stand, and get stuck behind a load of slow moving people on the way down, that 5 minutes it takes you to get down the stairs, means you get back to your car 5 minutes later, which if in a busy car park can ulitmately mean you getting home a good half an hour later....you still get to see the end of the game and how it ends. i dont see why people let it bother them so much, people can do what they like, its there lives, concentrate on your own and dont let it get to you.
I'm not sure why people leave with 80 minutes gone but leaving with a minute of injury time left to avoid the rush is perfectly understandable. You can usually tell by then what is going to happen. Like the other week when Koren scored with a few seconds left, I didn't miss that because you could tell there was still a chance of something happening. I've only missed 1 goal in 15 years of leaving just before the end when the game looked over.
So my old Man who is now 83,still goes each week,has season pass, going since 1946 has to F##k off cos you dont like him leaving 2 mins early so he is not stuck in traffic. W####R
I agree people can do what they want, it's their life, their money, their season ticket. But I wish people who want to leave early, and know it, would try and get tickets near an exit. There's one twat who sits on my row usually arrives at 3.05, off for his half time refreshments on 42 minutes, never back before 50 minutes, and then off home on 82 - like clock work. On each occasion I've got to shift to let him past, because he has a seat right in the middle of the stand. He's free to do what he wants, naturally. Just as I'm free to think he's a dick.
