at the bulls home game people were leaving with 5 minutes to go and the scores level!

idiots

Last night it was like a trickle, then a flood, people mouthing off at one another, kicking the seats and one guy running all the way down to the front of the stand to complain about a steward who had said "unlucky" to him as she passed. absolutley bonkers.

I have no problem with people that leave early if they choose or don't go at all. It's the judgmental fans that wind me up.

10minutes to go a fair few were leaving,

During the game in 2005 to which Leeds had lost their first match that year. You had left on the 65th minute.


You have also on various occassions over the years left before the hooter. Extremely ironic that I can remember when you once left the JJB early one year.


Carry on bleating though Lawrence

now given the current economic climate surely you want to get your moneys worth. I understand the "want to beat the traffic line" will get used but why does it happen?

At least they went in the first place and don't miss big games for music concerts.

Nothing wrong with leaving early.

I do wonder if the people who stay till the end of rugby league matches stay till the very end of a nightclub no matter how bad it gets.

Wigan is the worst ground to get away from. Leeds were not going to come back.

I never leave early, but I can also see why people did

We left on the sound of the final hooter - legged to the car and it was still a mare getting out of Wigan.

Would never leave early (especially after Wakefield) but I might be the first one out before the masses exit.

I was embarrassed by the rats last night.

So much for supporting your team.

Couldnt agree more!! The lads have just flogged their guts out for us!! If you can't clap them off win or lose then you have a genuine lack of respect for what they do!! If beating the traffic is the best excuse people have then its Bull $hite! if Saving 5, 10, 30 mins, an hour is more important than showing gratitude to our team then you are not my kind of supporter!! And for those of you who use your kids as an excuse then shame on you! They can sleep in the car! Or if you think they are getting home too late? Then the simple answer is don't take em!!
