[Albion] The club (De Zerbi?) has spoken

[Moshe Gariani]

"Your support will once again be crucial for Roberto and the players tonight, with a place in the round of 16 at stake. We look forward to another excellent atmosphere under the lights and encourage all supporters to stay until the full-time whistle."

"Your support will once again be crucial for Roberto and the players tonight, with a place in the round of 16 at stake. We look forward to another excellent atmosphere under the lights and encourage all supporters to stay until the full-time whistle."

Finally, official confirmation: leaving early is a sign of disappointment or anger. True fans stay to the end!

I might leave a bit early from my seat in N1F. Got Covid and don't want to pass it on to those around me.

 

[ConfusedGloryHunter]

There is no way I am staying until the end of this thread. I have a long drive ahead of me.

...and encourage all supporters to stay until the full-time whistle."

No, thank you.

Give us the monorail and we will stay

Nah - that was RDZ promising a 95’ goal to win the match (is how I read it)

Almost 32 yards? It's a long shot.

 

[jordanseagull]

Well, I 100% need to make the 9.59 from Falmer, or else I can't get back home to London on the train and tube. Sorry Roberto.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

How many carriages on the post-match trains please @jackalbion? 8 carriages good, 3 carriages bad

 

[Deadly Danson]

I've already arrived at the Amex just so i can leave early. Failure to prepare.....

Pfffft….true fans stay well beyond the end…whenever that is …I’m still here from Saturdays game! Take that

The fact is, people will do what they always do. The bloke diagonally in front of me being a case in point. Turns up just before kick off, only acknowledges the guy to his right, watches the game with his headphones in, doesn't know a single song, leaves on 82 minutes every game, no matter what the score. I would have said he was a big club stooge or two-team Tarquin except for the fact he's loaded with Albion merch, always a scarf, often a hat and coat with club colours.

My son, however, would probably stick pins in his own eyes before leaving even 30 seconds early, no matter what the score. Even when we had to get the EDF P&R after Brentford we simply moved to a seat nearer the front and left on the final whistle.

Personally, I don't see the point in leaving early. A football match is a play you've never seen before, a DJ set or gig you've never heard. How on earth do you not want to find out how it ends? But I've seen plenty of good reasons on these threads in the past, from train connections to young kids with school next day. It's never straight forward.

You've been told fellas. Stay and support your team.

All the excuses about transport, suck it up.

The team are aware of people leaving early and it affects them. Otherwise RDZ would not have made this comment

 

[ozzygull]

I always stay to the end and clap the team off whatever the score. I am not better then anyone else, it's just what I do.

 

[A1X]

Ah cool, are they laying on extra trains and providing extra exits from the car parks then?

That's me f***ed then.

Same here, but each to their own

minutes obviously- (‘) or ‘ = feet (which would have been funny’) otherwise you can use ‘yd’ as an abbreviated form of ‘yard’

Good of the club to lay on some post match poptastic entertainment for you
