TroyDyer Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I have to leave with 5 or so minutes left on Saturday. Giving me 4 hours to get to Portsmouth for my boat. Not quite the x factor though! I hate myself for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 The only time people should be allowed to leave early are the frail chaps that dont want the hustle and bustle of the stairs, old bloke near me leaves at 86 standard no matter the crack as he has a dodgy knee and hip and wants to avoid everybody leaving and him getting knocked over..

Jordy Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Frankly I don't know why people care so much about other people leaving early, it's completely their choice. At least they've paid for a seat and bothered to turn up, it's them who's missing out if something else occurs in the game after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC_17 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 i dont mind people leaving early to avoid the ruckus, but the thing i hate is when derby are loosing badly then they go home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 You see it at every game in the country now. There were huge gaps at Man City v Arsenal last 5-10 minutes for example. Some people go down near the front to watch the last few minutes, they don't leave the ground early, just their seats. Some go for a piss and watch the tv's in the concourse Some go for specific one off reasons (like Troy said earlier) Some just go out of habit, its like a rat race to get away from PP for whatever reason....beat the traffic, trains to catch etc dunna really matter, each to their own.

ossieram Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I can't understand why anyone would watch a game for 85 minutes and leave when it's a close game, But each to their own. I made that mistake once in the early 80's when we were playing Spurs. I had arranged to meet a girl in town after the game and decided to leave with a few minutes left to beat the rush. I went down the stairs at the back of the popside and as i reached the bottom, A massive cheer went up. Like a **** i ran back up the stairs. I got near the top and realised it was too late and i wouldn't see a replay. So turned round again went to town. I was in a stinking mood alnight and didn't even get my leg over. I ve never left early since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 It matters to me when people keep getting in my way! They don't beat traffic anyway because they all go at the same time. Plus I think the team deserve clapping off. Not finish the game and look up and see an empty ground. Mostly though I just hate Pride Park. Turn up late Race to finish Steve Bloomer song Don't sing Moan a bit Wave at fan cam Check Chelsea score Leave early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlsonDerby Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Hate having to get up and down and up and down for people late getting up for kick off. Just down your pint and get to your seat on time not difficult the majority of us manage it! Not arsed if people leave early or but arriving late grinds me more!

I ve never left early since. I stayed right till the end that game then walked slowly into town. Then some right fit bird came up to me and said " i cant stay with this moody Derby fan in there any longer..wanna take me home?" Never leave early Ossie!
