Just watching the match tonight and with ten minutes to go, the Man Utd supporters were leaving the ground despite the likelihood of their hero Cristiano Ronaldo having a possible hat-trick. Why can't they just stay 'til the end? It's not like tickets are cheap so why leave before the end. Are Man Utd supporters probably the worst supporters in the Premier League?

evening Elvis.....i took my son down to watch the Spurs yesterday and coming from south wales we stayed till the bitter end and a bloody bitter end it was as well...even before i moved from west london years ago i stayed till the end....as a few have said its to avoid traffic.......get the train/bus home...if thats the case why go...all the crowd are part of the day...and there were a few Spurs leaving early yesterday....and they probably only live round the corner.

Well i always stay til the end. But you are way off with your comments. I have seen fans leave at all other grounds, so i`m not sure why you object so much to Man U fans doing it and as has already been pointed out, it is so busy as there are more fans there than at any other ground it`s bedlam.
Worst supporters in the prem league? you would like to think so wouldn`t you and i`m sure i`m not going to convince you otherwise but apart from the few prawn sandwichers who will be quaffing champagne for a couple of hours yet, the working class fans have work in the morning, and believe me, the roads are gridlocked after a match.

Wen i got to United games, at the end of the game there is always like a 1000 people in a line waiting for the train to get out of Old Trafford, so most people leave early to get at the front of the line so they can get home quicker.
But I always stay til the end cos i paid for 90 + minutes so i wanna c the whole 90 minutes

No if you mean Ronaldo or all clubs are slave traders. Yes, maybe to some shirts produced in Far East in countries like Indonesia, Singapore, China, the Philippines and Thailand where slaves could be involved or not? As to being a slave for £100k per week it would depend on what I had to do. Play football then yes, go to Afghanistan/Iraq/Iran to fight then no. You could also say TV, internet and mobile phone contracts is like slavery as you have to buy out contract (buy your freedom) if you no longer want it.

Many people do that ,not just United fans(or football fans for that matter).But I understand your desire to pick on United fans at every possible chance.Jealousy can't be helped.
People leave early so they can avoid getting caught in traffic.Not a very nice thing to do,but hey, if you've got to go for work the next day,there's nothing else you can do.

Alot of fans do that in other clubs, when the games are on at night they trains may stop running at a certain time, so they do it so they can get home. Also when you have thousands of fans all leaving at the same time, getting taxi's is a nightmare. So they leave early for their own benefit. Not because they want to go.

Sorry to be rude, but how exactly does this concern you? Its their money and their tickets and they can decide to leave the game whenever they want, they didn't borrow from you to buy the tickets did they?? So what exactly is wrong with whatever time they leave, they probably have something else to do. Sour grapes.

This happens at any ground once the match is won, or lost as the case may be. I saw one where whoever was losing, the fans started pouring out, and then they scored twice in the last few mins and won.
