STAY until the final whistle if the game's in the balance.

I just can't understand people who leave a few minutes from the end when the score is say 1-1 or 0-1. It's not like we're at Old Trafford and you need to beat the traffic from the other 70 odd thousand fans there is it?

Fair enough if we're winning comfortably or losing by a couple or more but to leave early when one goal could change the whole complexion of the result has always baffled me.

I always leave my seat early, but only to move down to the front of the Upper, to get away sharpish at the end. It’s very slow emptying in the Upper.

I've only left a single game early in my life, which was the Tommy Fourpast debacle. As for staying off the pitch it's going to be a packed game I'm sure with a bunch of extras who came to just run on the pitch at the end and make twits of themselves. I'm sure that same shirtless numpty with the cap on will run on the pitch if we score as they always seem to appear for important games.

At the end hundreds will swarm the pitch like we just won the league because we are such losers that this warrants such a celebration.

I have no objection to that but I get really annoyed when people come down the steps and when there is any excitement, stand in front of me and block my view. I don't buy a season ticket not to see any late goals.

Been in there when that happens and people block the view from certain parts of the stand.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Anyone leaving early today probably feels a bit of a twit
