And can anyone provide a sharp focus vid, complete with name 'n shaming 
Not too many near me. I saw one older chap go but that was all.

Jim White mentioned this on Talksport this morning, suggesting, I think, that quite a few had? But certainly no one near to me had gone, and the TV pictures suggest very few.. I am sure there were some, but the vast, vast majority stood firm!
i was in block 25, and 4 in front of me as well as their mate who was sitting beside me left on 85 minutes. As i was towards the front of the block i can't tell how many more left, but i never saw them after that so would assume they missed the finale.....

A few mentioned on the game thread going and legging it back from the station.
Two next to my son left never to resurface about 80th minute.

I was right next to the stairwell on the far left, and I would say at least 20 bods walked by me down the steps, giving the 'wall fans various gestures as they went.
Edit: this was just after their second goal.

Who were the folks in the lower tier?
About 20-ish of them. Why were they special enough to be allowed down there?

My son met a few after the match who admitted they’d done it and rushed back.
Someone said about 100 fans at the station, who ran back.
Fair play to the police/MFC for letting them back in.

I would say no more then 100 left early. I Was very tempted to leave but so glad I didn't.
Left on about 85 minutes. 2-0 down with the officials against us and a train in 6 minutes. Just approaching the station when news of the 1st goal came through and then on the platform at London Bridge when the second went in. Watched extra time, in the Bunch of Grapes and it was a great atmosphere (not as good as at the ground, I'm sure).
Regret leaving, of course, but the end result is we are still going to Wembley and that's the most important thing.

I think they had kids involved in the half-time entertainment.

Wembley is great for Finals but its wrong for semi, When you consider who we are playing it could well be a long 90 minutes

I was watching on a crap stream, at around the same time, 85 minutes, I gave up on it, and went out. 2-0 and not seeing anything improvement.
Later in the local bar, I thought I would check to see who we would have been drawn against had we won.
Took a while to sink in.
