Are you in 110, they may be mine and Lee's seats. We haven't been in them all season. We choose to stand elsewhere.

I am aware that last night there was an issue with the traffic but still there were loads of empty seats and again people leaving before the end. We rightly get stick for this and its hard to defend. Atmosphere was ok last night but not what I expected. Lets hope Sunday is an improvement.

I always leave me seat at 87mins. The people around me mustn't like it and think I miss out but the joke's on them as I peg it around from the South Stand to the North Stand to meet the rest of my family in the disabled section.

I think I've seen more goals scored in the family stand end than my end this season :-) Yaya's goal was a joy to behold watching him race towards me.

Empty seats might be explained by more and more people moving into the South Stand. The last 3 games I'd predict double the amount it's supposed to hold have been present in and around the 5 or so rows I can see in front of me.

I left the cinema after 20 minutes of "the boat that rocked" - but wouldnt leave the game early

The only film I've ever walked out on, was Amadeus. I wanted to rip my eyes and ears off.

Got soaked to the skin queing up to get in , that's after being stuck in gridlocked traffic in the city center , missed the first 5 minutes along with around 20 thousand other blues , fucking chaos then all the moaning old cunts sat near me couldn't handle the intensity of the night ! Had better evenings at the Etihad but we came through with flying colours . So many tense fuckers in the ground these days it is untrue !!!

Leaving early to beat the traffic.

Isn't this simply a ridiculous old habit many of us had from the Maine Road days? Pokey terraced streets, dreadful parking, princess parkway being a carpark for an hour. If you didn't leave early and were in a car, you could easily be stuck around the parkway or rusholme etc for an hour or so before getting home.

Not excusing it, but I figure that many people have carried this old habit over without actually realising it.
