New stadium are we still plauged by the same old problem...

[Goring Gull]

of people leaving 10 -15 mins before the end just so they get a clear get away?

Unfotunately i wasn't atthe game - managed to somehow get most of the second half live on a tv in apub in Huddersfield. Has the new stadium cured the rush to get away early merchants?

 

[Frutos]

There were some leaving early, yes.

More fool them, clearly they have no idea of the Albion's propensity for late dramatics.

 

[Whitterz]

Serves the fuckers right as they missed the best part of the day. All just to get on a train back to Brighton before everyone else.

probably.

I think the hardest bit yesterday was getting people to leave the stadium!!

 

[hola gus]

I was lucky enough to get a tic in the east stand, and a bloke with 2 kids a boy and a girl aged i suppose about 8 or 9 left as the stoppage time was announced. Im reluctant to criticise a father with kids as you dont know the circumstances behind him leaving, but................. if there was 1 game not to leave early it was yesterday! I feel like those 2 kids missed out. But what can you do. I feel that family stand on a cold nov tue night could be very empty come the final whistle!!!

If people want to leave early, let them. yes it doesnt show great support (from them) but dont let it bother you.

They lost out, not you.

Who cares? Each to their own.

I think the kids probably gave their dad some serious earache once they heard that massive cheer after our second goal.

How is it even a 'same old problem'? Its just some silly fuckers missing out. See ya!

The bouncer at Komedia last night had to miss the last ten minutes as he started work at 5, the poor sod.

 

[Garage_Doors]

Why is it perceived to "be a problem" . I don't understand it like most, it their loss, but why is it seen as "a Problem"?

He just needs to get a bike I've told him this already. Last week I made it to Komedia for 5:10 and he starts at 5:30 so he should be able to make it. That being said if we have 11 minutes of injury time every week all us Komedia Albion fans could be out of work soon.

Totally agree- I hate leaving games early but it doesn't bother me at all if others need to for whatever reason. It proved yesterday that it's ultimately their loss - as it was in the play off semi v Swindon!

I agree with this, but also I am sure some people do leave for good reason, as above someone had to be in work by 5pm, I am sure there are many genuine reasons why some people leave, and even if they are just leaving to get a train, bus, lift whatever, what does it matter.

iwould rather be a extra hour home than miss the last 10 mins of a brighton game

It's probably the kids who want to leave. My son wanted to leave before half-time, I told him there was no way that we were leaving before the end. He got used to the idea and by the end of the game he was clapping and singing with everybody else.

Have to say that there was no-one around me leaving early - which is relief after last season when I generally ended up in a row to myself as everyone in my section left 5 to 10 minutes from the end.
