Have you ever left a Diamonds football match early?

Have you ever walked out of a Rushden & Diamonds game home or away before the full-time whistle has been blown and if so why?

I don't think any of the above apply to me, because i've only done it once in 14 years. That was away to Oxford when we lost 3-0 years ago, and i did it because the performance was shameful.

I've done it once too, so wouldn't say any really apply to me either.

Coventry 8-0 was the only one I can think off,and that was so we could get away easier

only after the oxford away leg of the play-offs because i didn't want to sit in traffic there with another 7 hours of driving ahead of me.... and we were not going to make an amazing come-back, unfortunately.

Southport away so I could go straight onto a Liverpool match at 5.15 ;) We were winning at the time, so forgivable I guess ;)

That was an amazing away atmosphere - how could you have left early!!!

Only once before that I can recall and that was to catch the train to London to take in a show.

Never left early but I was late for kick off once by about 5-6 minutes and had already missed 2 goals If I remember correctly
