That was an amazing away atmosphere - how could you have left early!!!
Because I was 12 and didnt have a say in the matter ;)
Should have thrown a tantrum mate, could have stayed then ;) :D

Once - away at Oxford, 3-0 down and the clock clicked to 90 minutes !! I was due to attend a family function in Thame, so left to miss the traffic chaos. As I walked across the carpark I heard the cheer as Darby scored, 3-1 I thought !! In the car and driving away from the ground I hear on the radio "a great fightback at the Kassam, 3-2 now".............we lost by that margin, but I've never left before the final whistle since.............nor have I been allowed to forget the day I left a game early !!

You fibber! ;) You must have left on 84 minutes at the very latest, as Duane's goals were scored in the 85th and 88th minutes! :lol:

If there was one game I'd stay until the end it was that one! We weren't going to make a comeback but the atmosphere was still amazing despite losing and I needed to applaud the players for the season we'd witnessed.

For the record my only time was Peterborough away in 2006, 2-0 down a couple of minutes before the end.

My old man used to do it after nearly every game to beat the traffic but now that I come alone, I haven't left early in over 3 years.
