It was their loss and their's to make. If I had the ability to go to the match, I wouldn't leave until the players had left the field.
But that's just me - everyone is different and has reasons.
It makes them no less of a fan, imho.
Besides, hasn't this 'leaving early' thing been mentioned...
Following the massive success of last season, I (along with most - apart from a certain few) was hoping for similar, this year.
I say 'hope' because that's all it is, and we're not far short (so far) of where we were, and we're still in with a shout of a Cup or two.....albeit unlikely, imho...
