There is no shame in leaving early. I did not even go. I went to the Leeds game and left at 90 minutes to sell the fanzine. I did not find out we'd lost until a couple of hours later when I got home.
I went to the game with my 6 year old daughter and at 3-0 asked if she wanted to go. She said no as we might score. So we stayed. Feel quite good now.

I was watching on a phone via an alternative and creative means of content delivery. I switched off at 0-2, not because we were losing but because I had had enough of watching those zippy fuckers in yellow run rings around us. I left my football scores notification app (futbol24 used to be good now fucking shite, any app suggestions gratefully received) on though, leading to 20 minutes of 'Oh for fuck's sake! 'Ooh fuck me!' 'Eh? What the fuck?' and 'Fucking Hell!I felt like Bunk and McNulty.
I confess I left early, very early, and missed all the fight back. I am not worthy and consider myself to be the lowest and most despicable of Gods creatures. I have bought shame to my family and to my few friends that may have previously considered me as an upright and honourable citizen.There should be some redress, if only to assuage even a small part of my self-loathing. What punishment do you feel appropriate for this act of wanton abandonment of footballing ideals?

Fair play to those who stayed they got what they deserved, great support.Whilst I would never leave with 15 minutes left, I understand why fans did last night, having watched 75 minutes of crap, but what I don't get is fans leaving early, when it's been a thrilling match and the game's on a knife's edge, simply to miss the traffic.
