I recall Mbrough been 3-0 up at the KCom after about 20 mins a few seasons ago. The bloke I sat next to couldn't understand why I chose to stay. He'd gone home before 3.30. The game ended 4-2. I'll admit that I went on half time last night. First time I've ever left a game so early. I was wet through and in a foul mood. Last thing I needed was coming across some smoggie twat on the car park given it large.
Don’t think anyone would criticise someone for not going for the reasons you listed. **** happens in life and watching football is a hobby and hobbies sometimes have to take a back seat for more important things. I think what people are criticising is the mass exodus at halftime. It was a poor look, in my opinion. The atmosphere at home has been poor all season despite the turnaround in our home form under Jakirović and the siege mentality he’s built due to the transfer restrictions and off-field stuff. ‘Football in a library’ is sung by the supporters of every team that has visited the MKM so far this season.
We lost 4-0 at home to York during the 1965/66 record breaking promotion season, then 3-1 at home to QPR a few days before or after ( from memory)
'Football in a library' is sang by every set of away fans at every ground in the FL at every match, every week. It is not exclusive to our stadium.
I thought our first home game against Oxford was a cracking atmosphere since then it's been dreadful despite some decent wins and performances.
Weren’t we 5-0 down at half time against both Wigan and Man City? Similar circumstances vs Wigan too didn’t they have 4 shots and score 5 goals?
'If I had paid to watch that I'd have booed too', Mark Hateley after our Doncaster defeat. The same Doncaster that lost 34 league games, a record, only won four games that season, had a goal difference of -83, conceded 113 league goals, and had a cobbled together team including the goalkeeper who was a friend of a friend. Great days.
Man City was obviously away wasn’t it and that Wigan game was 2-0 at half time after just looking. Not sure where the Jim quote came from either
Weren’t 4-0 down at home at half time. I think last night was a first (at least whoever have been going).
Agree. Atmosphere was good against Oxford. That late winner by McBurnie was great and the whole stadium erupted. Ever since then it’s been crap.
The Man City away in 2008 and yesterday are the only times we have been 4-0 down at half time with goal times that chatGPT could find in our entire history, whether home or away. It could have happened in historical results where it could not find information about when the goals were scored so it’s not definitive, but at least in recent history they are the only 2 times.
This has deviated from the original post which said last night was the first time we had been 4-0 down at half time at home.
