To all the fans leaving early....

[Silver Fox]

Great thread, I've never noticed people leaving early before. Now if only someone would raise the issue of away fans standing

[66DD]

if you are referring to the group on sky that were shown leaving 10minutes before the end, those were the Reading Buses drivers who always have to leave early and get back to their buses

How did Sky know what was in the bus drivers' sandwiches? Had there been some illegal hacking going on?

[PieEater]

I usually leave early if Church comes on.

You could always stay at home. Or even support a different team.

If Church coming on is such a -ve for you then you clearly know too little about football.

i like to stay and help the cleaners pick up the rubbish

This thread is really quite pathetic

Says the poster who used to sit in the car & listen to the game rather than going to the ground because they hated Coppell IIRC.

Nope, you don't remember correctly.

It's a free world and if people want to leave 5 minutes early to avoid an hour long queue in the car park then they should feel free to do so. Doesn't make them any worse fans than you and I, it might just mean they have things to do on the Saturday night and can't afford to be trapped in a car park till 6pm.

Many of those who leave early have small children, others are quite old and frail. Others will have families to get home to.

Support can be shown in a number of ways.

Ha ha. I never even used to post on here during that time but always had a read & I distinctly remember that being you. Will have to trawl through the posts & see if I can find it.

In the car presumably?

That was Woodcote.

I'll give you a clue

His initials were WR, but his location is based in Oxfordshire

EDIT: RL has ruined the game

[winchester_royal]

I don't follow?

[MmmMonsterMunch]

Well in that case other WR....I apologise for that comment.

Reasonably impressed with being close enough seeing as I didn't post on here then.

I always remembered that thread because it was hilarious.

Anyway - I think Ian Royal summed it up perfectly. People leaving are the idiots that miss out. Not much I can add.

No worries.

And as for that last point I just think it's a bit simplistic to say that anyone who leaves early is an idiot. Many of those who leave early do have a valid reason for doing so, and I don't think we can criticise anyone for any decision unless we know the circumstances of that decision.

[MmmMonsterMunch]

Quite annoying when we have a corner in the North Stand in the last 10 mins of a game & they are blocking my view though.
