I Wonder How It Makes The Players And Coaching Staff Feel..

[Im_Spartacus]

Eastlands is usually half empty at the final whistle; City have scored fewer goals in the final 15 minutes than any other team in the league.

Coincidence?

Chicken and Egg?

@ Slim,
I'm happy to pick up the baton you've offered and happy to run with it too mate. As some have taken my points seriously and the thread has evolved into a reasonable discussion I will hopefull add to it.
My post was a bit mischievous and a litlle tongue in cheek. I don't have a problem with the Uni cunts and I deliberately didn't leave a smiley. I was having a daft hour...that's all. A short time earlier, I had had another little dig at BiB and it was meant mainly in fun.

On a more serious note, I fully understand that everyone, having paid their entrance has the right to leave as they wish...so be it.
I do have an issue regarding their ill manners and the selfishness they show in the manner of their leaving. They are unconcerned that, having sat in the middle of a row, they are disturbing the quality of the game for those they dusturb, the rush that forces them to leave so early becomes negated by their stopingg on the ailes and then blocking the view of others. As more and more leave, the view can often become totally obstructed.
If they showed the consideration of buying their tickets at the ends of ailes and in rows where the entrance made it easy to slip out of without causing a dusturbance...i would have no problem.
You are almost correct about my attitude towards fand and lyalty and club Slim...not quite, gbbut not too far off. It was the way we were in ther Kippax as I was forming my opinions. I must make it clear that though it is my view, i don't expect everyone to share it.

I am proud of the fact that at my two city home games I had a go at the people around me who left early. If they had a valid reason they would have stood up for themselves.

Honestly, improved public transport to games would improve this situation. In Brisbane, the cost of public transport is included in your ticket price and there is no parking at or near the ground. 98% of people attending matches at Suncorp stadium use the service. The first bus doesn't leave until after the game, meaning there is no point leaving early. Top top system.

Totally agree John, I think we should have an early leavers section so they can all sit up in the gods and not affect the main atmosphere pitchside. I wonder how many of them would admit to being a season ticket holder in the Early leavers section? There are valid reasons for individuals to leave early, but he same bloke every fucking week at 83 mins getting up and fucking off to "Beat the Traffic" or "get home for the X-Factor". Pffffft it really not on IMO.
