Ok let me explain. I have never left a football game early in my life. I work Saturday's or I would own a season ticket.

My boss said to me today " if you can be back by 5, I have 2 1901 seats you can have the use of "

He told me at 230 and covered me to go.

I was faced with the option of not going at all or going and leaving on 80 minutes and ensuring I could make a super fast getaway.

Obviously pi**sed off I missed the goal but would I do it again. Yes.

I always thought it was a shame people leave early but I put it to you that if you had to always work when the Albion were playing would you not go at all or go and leave 10 minutes early ?

10 mins early. You got free tickets for 80 mins instead of working, easy choice.

It's not you or people who leave a tad early for health issues who are the idiots mate - it's the ones who do it week in week out to get a train straight away. I left WSU on full time vs cov and there was virtually no train que and we were pretty much first in the bus que - NO EXCUSE PEOPLE!

I sit in the east 1901 and counted 16 empty seats directly around me today, the four to my left and six behind me have never had the same people two weeks running
and their not included in today's 16.

I have sat in east stand before on a 1901 club ticket owned by rendezvous casino but used to give to customers and business people. Hence the reason the same person is rarely seen in the seats.

It's perfectly fine in this case and of course you are the type of fan to come on here anyway. It's the plastics who disappear with no reason that piss off most fans. We don't have any more than other clubs, but think we used to have amongst the fewest in the league down to the Withers effect and so it's just back to normality now and some fans can't handle that. If someone leaves early with no reason they lost out big time today and deservedly so, but in your case you gained 80 minutes so :thumbsup: and don't let moaners get you down.
