My seat is near to a gangway in the Upper Whatsit stand and if we are attacking the Ponny, my view of the opponents goal is blocked by early leavers. I can understand people leaving early, but I too would like them to just go, not stop and stand in my way when something exciting happens on their way down.

I also hate people who stop and stand in the way, but as said before I don't do that, I keep walking, I don't stop and stand, I only stop and stand when I'm in the corner, therefore not in anybody's way

I think I have only left early twice in 60 years of watching town. Yesterday was one of the occasions for two reasons. My wife and I had a golden wedding function to go to. (Not mine, that is next year)  and secondly I did not mind leaving because I was not enjoying the game and in any case I could not see there being a happy ending.

For all those saying that those leaving early are 'a disgrace', I'll think the same of you when I don't see you at away games. Why aren't you there supporting the team?

Hagrid I stand in the corner so I can quickly make a quick get away to my car to try and avoid being hemmed in and then stuck in traffic, I don't leave early, I don't stand in front of people, I simply stand in the corner then leave when the whistle blows, if we have won I stop to applaud the players, even when applauding the players I still get home like 15 mins earlier than if I stay in my seat

So you have forgetten how well we have played so far, an average performance and you withdraw your physical support for the same players who beat Luton last week? It is a long season and we should back the players even when we lose.


Perhaps you and Mikey should ask the club for a little desk near the exit so that those wanting to leave early can come and ask your permission. Perhaps you could also post on the Fishy a list of acceptable reasons and non-acceptable excuses.

On the other hand perhaps the pair of you should just grow up because although you might be entitled to think what you like, it is absolutely none of your business if someone wants or needs to leave a football ground after 85 minutes or after 5 minutes. Their money is a good as yours.


“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”

Ok so it is mature to leave with ten minutes to go and boo the players when we've been on a good run
