People who leave early aren't real supporters anyway, just people on a day out and need to get back to their local or X-Factor.

Probably just sit there boiling over until the people are down the tunnel before starting your rant.

Actually, I'm tempted to leave early for the next match and see if anyone says anything to me. I very much doubt it.


My pal was asking everyone yesterday why they were leaving early.
Was funny seeing everyone's face nobody kicked off back they just looked bemused at why he was asking and if leaving early was the normal thing to do.


Would have absolutely loved to see your mates face if one of them had turned around and said, "Got to get home because my wife is looking after our disabled child of 5 years old who is going in for an operation down in London tomorrow morning so we've got to set off and get down there as we're staying over night".

People don't know anyone's personally reasons for leaving early and it should be kept that way.

It is the numbers leaving early though, I could be wrong, but Eastlands at the final whistle always looks far emptier than any other stadium, obviously with the exception of teams like Wigan. At other grounds you get people leaving before the end, but we have it in such ridiculous numbers, that is what I don't understand.


This is what gets on my tits. Of course some people have to leave early, but it's becoming like the normal thing to do at our ground & I agree it does look like it may be the worst in the league for it, yet it's by no means the worst for transport. It's mainly people just fucking off rather than supporting the team & it's not good at all.

We do mate, come on don't be daft. There will be a percentage of people who have no choice. 90% of those huge numbers fucking off don't fall into that catagory; you know it & I know it. It's something our fans have started doing.

Yep, all 20,000 of them were off to do that. Fucking hell man, leave the bullshit stories out of it, that makes you sound a twat using disabled children to make a point. If that was the case I'd be thinking you are a complete fuckwit for going in the 1st place. Face it, they're just not very good supporters.

Yesterday was probably the worst I have ever seen it, and at a time when everybody should be staying to applause the team for going top. I stayed to the end, walked back to picadilly, waited for 10 mins for the train, 40 minutes on train back to Runcorn, a taxi to my local and was sinking a pint by 6.30.

When I was at the derby Mase I gave a couple leaving early an absolute gobful.

Seriously, do away with the parking. Include the price of public transport in the ticket price. No buses leave until after the match. Sorted.

That's why I said "...if one of them had turned around and said...." kiddo.

Not very good supporters? Are you serious? as I've stated, when I was a kid City were beyond shite. We were in the old Division 2 losing to fuckin Stockport. Like I've said I could quite easily have thought, 'You know what, fuck this supporting a shite team. All my mates support United, I'm gonna support them.' But I didn't. I still had a season ticket then and I've still got it now at 26 years of age. If one week I decide to leave early for ANY reason, that doesn't make me a 'not very good support' at all.

Im hoping once the tram starts a lot of people will leave their cars at home and get trains and trams.

Cheers slick, just not a very good comparison to make.

You could quite easily have thought?

Truthfully, I don't give a monkey's if you, or any other fan wants to leave early, honestly don't. But that doesn't mean that I don't get a little annoyed to see the mass of people leaving early to make Mary D's or wherever. And does it make those that stay to give the lads a bit of appreciation for their efforts a better supporter, then I'd say it does. They took that little extra time to show what the team are worth to us rather than gaining those few minutes showing what the early leavers are all about.

Just to confirm I haven't left early for a while, I usually just waiting inside the stadium for about 10 minutes until everyone leaves and then stroll around the Superstore and then go to the front of the stadium to see if any players are coming out. Then head over to where I've parked and the traffic is usually gone by then.
But I don't have a problem with people leaving early as it's their choice.

Sometimes if I've had a curry the night before I'll have to pop to the loos and miss 5-10 minutes of the first half though.

The front as in the main entrance? Do you ever get to see any of them and do they stop for photos/autographs? My daughter is desperate to meet Sergio.

I miss 5 of the 1st and 5 of the 2nd so I can have a pint, and nearly missed AJ's goal. Luckily the steward let me stand in the walkway while we had a chat; nearly got my beer all over him. I class it as putting money into the club, honest ;-)

The Colin Bell Stand entrance. If you wait long enough most of them come out there. We've seen a few from Joe Hart to Daniel Sturridge when he was with us. Big Vinny K with his Mrs and Kolo came out a few times while he was banned.

Suppose you're lucky that the steward didn't swing for you I guess considering the other thread.

In another 20 years, maybe. The stewards with us are excellent, City and ShowSec, and allow us a little leaway. Also helps that the one nearest me is a City fan soo we have some decent conversations.
