People Leaving The Game Early?

I noticed title chasing Arsenal had large sections of their supporters leaving the ground with 5 minutes of normal time on the clock whilst losing at home to West Ham.

Just when the team needs you, I'll fuck off early.

Never understood the mentality of those leaving early (unless circumstances insist). We've been 2-1 up against the likes of Man United and people have left before the final whistle.

Because they can do whatever the fuck they want?

I saw the thread title and thought an old poster had popped in...

Too easy.

I’m off.

Ah of course it was bait.

Fucking moron.

Traffic maybe, but I doubt that is relevant now

Traffic shouldn't be an excuse.

You wouldn't go to the cinema and leave 10 minutes before the end.

I do that regularly. The credits usually last at least 10 minutes.

Anyway, stupid thread.

Yeah but a cinema is entertainment

Also I’m not sure why people need an “excuse”. Yesterday we were three up and cruising. The result wasn’t in any doubt. If people left a few minutes before the final whistle I’m not sure what’s wrong with that.

What about when we're 2-1 up against Arsenal and hanging on for dear life?

It would seem odd to leave early in that scenario. But each to their own. I’ve known a few people over the years with mobility issues who always leave early to avoid getting caught up in the rush to the exit.

That's what I find odd. If there's no real reason.

Like you said about yesterday, when the result is done and dusted, I get leaving the ground.

I left early at Portsmouth, sometimes it's the only decision.
