    Planned to leave at 80. Ended up saying I would leave bang on 90. Stayed for the goal. Then left.

    Me neither, it might have been a crap game but there was always a chance we would get the winner

    I leave on 90 minutes most times so I make the fast train home. Annoyed to of missed the goal as I heard the cheering walking down towards white city but just glad we won.

    Yes, the magnitude of that cheer would certainly indicate which team just scored, although your ears would have also picked up a Charlton winner.

    Good to meet you today mate.
    The guys in front of us left before the end of the first half and again before the winner.

    Why?!! What's the point of buying a ticket if you're going to do that.

    When I go to a game I never leave early. Reason QPR 5 Newcastle 5. Couple of lads I went to the game left at half time (we were 4 nil down) - we got 2 goals in last 5 mins to level. I think we also had two others disallowed but could be wrong. Anyone else remember that game?

    Thanks, good to meet you too. Bizarre after all these years that we're in the same row just a few seats away from each other. Great to meet Beth and Roller too though I met Roller only briefly a couple of seasons back.
    The fellas behind me always leave early. I guess they reckon missing the traffic is worth the odd missed goal.
    Doesn't work for me. Especially after such a dull game whose only redeeming feature was EL K's quality curler on 94 minutes.
    Have a great week.

    We were in the bar at half time and decided that if they scored the next goal we would go back to the pub. They didn't of course. I seem to recall us having a chance to make it 6-5 right at the death.

    My father always insisted in leaving matches early to get ahead of the traffic and I always hated it. I always wait to the end now in case I miss something.

    I can understand leaving a few minutes early if your team is 2-0 down but if its 1-0 or 1-1?

    Just silly

    We don't score enough to have the luxury of missing the odd goal!

    That was the only home game I missed that season because two selfish people got married on a Saturday. The bloke that I went with then went home at half time. He went to the pub in the evening saying that he doesn't want to talk about football and no one understood why.

    Never leave early - how many goals happen on the last kick of the game?
