Leaving early is getting ridiculous!

[The Upper Library]

Why should he? He like a lot of us go to be entertained by a game of football. once he has had enough he leaves, not every supporter is blinkered by football. When I parked in bridge car park it could take up to 90 mins to get out if you left on the final whistle, but leave 5-10 mins early you can drive straight out. Hence saving this hour + all for the sake of 10 mins.
No brainer ain't it. Much rather miss 10 mins of a game if it means i don't have sit in a queue of stationery traffic.

I get the hassle of getting away from the ground - but I just feel that the whole match experience is about being there to the final whistle. I am not judging or criticising just from my point of view I would find it hard to leave a game that hadn't finished.

I keeps her happy indoors and keeps me catching a cold but on special occasions ill stay there and drink till i drop. Coming home early means i can get away with the odd piss up. Planning ahead you see

As you say, no brainer.........


Do you ever go to the cinema and leave before you know what the ending was?

Have you ever been to a cinema that regularly holds 27000 people?

Generally no as there are not traffic issues when leaving, but have done when the film has not been a good one.

 

[bluenitsuj]

What if you put seat belts in the seats so early leavers would be forced to stay till full time

That would annoy all those that need a P**s every 5 minutes

That's a reasonable point but when the game is finally balanced surely you sooner witness the outcome.

Someone special ??

Yeh like inigo warming up

No but love the fact my team once again get this amount to their games. Part of that is the acceptance that it might take a little while to get away.

By drinking more Guinness I believe I'm keeping the club afloat
It was fecking cold yesterday so I did have to GO more than usual

yes to a point, but depending on the game, if were mid table or fighting to go top or if a cup game against higher opposition ect.

 

[Stat Brother]

In a similar vein:-

How early do you have to get to The AMEX, in order to walk straight into a bar?

I had to buy some new cleats on the way, yesterday, and left too much time.
So we arrived between 1 & 1:30, so early I got our bestest ever Uni parking space.
Walking in I noted the massive queue for Dick and headed round the the East Stand.

There the queue was only 20 or so, but seriously stationary.
We waited 10 mins with no movement, and headed into the concourse.

I'm not convinced it is a reasonable point for many. Society seems obsessed with "beating the traffic" for no reason other than to beat the traffic. What is it every needs to get home so quickly for? Why the rush?

Im not aware of huge swathes of fans leaving concerts before the end.

Perhaps to rush home to watch the voice or any other crap on tv. I prefer to watch the game I've bothered to come and see.

BECAUSE THE ALTERNATIVE OF HANGING ABOUT ON A DRAUGHTY CONCOURSE IS UNBEARABLE

Its obvious you have no family,because i want to attend a match it is necessary how the rest of the family are spending the evening,Five minutes before final whistle could easily mean 30 mins queuing for a bus resulting in a late meal,Football is great but there are plenty of other things in life.

 

[Mowgli37]

I clap the team off then head down to the station, I rarely queue for over 15 minutes.

 

[GoingUp]

I left early to get tickets for Hull and Millwall. TBH the weather was sh!t and the football wasn't much better, we would of probably left early to save from getting drenched queuing up early to get the bus.

You are not really a fan are you.
My family are able to get by without me for hours and so far haven't had to send out search parties for me coz they know I'll turn up eventually
They can also cook and eat without me being in the house coz Iv'e trained them how to
Come to think of it they don't even notice when I fall in the door now.
