| It is a weird one, I suppose they must just hate crowds/traffic. I don't really mind them so much, the ones who leave as soon as they know we've lost, gobbing off about how rubbish x player is are the ones that do my nut in. A large section of the Brigantes seemed to do this

| Quote ="Cruncher"You really are talking sh*t, pal.
That was a superb effort by those Wigan kids, who clearly are almost at Hull's level. Only one moment of inexperience saved the Airlie Birds' bacon - whatever they come on here later and try to claim.
To whinge about such an exciting match, and such a massive effort from the lads who are the future of our club is beyond churlish (and also very strongly suggests that you weren't even there - which is equally pathetic).
No-one I know left early or felt cheated by the manager. It was one of the best and most competitive games I've seen at the DW all season, and everyone was saying the same in the pub after.
If anyone should be irritated, it's the Hull fans - whose team only just managed to scrawp a win over a team composed largely of U19s.'"
I'm sorry I am a Hull and sorry to disappoint you but I'm not going to come on hear and claim any thing in my opinion you deserved the win tonight with the effort and play from a team basically made up of plays on the fringe of your squad. I was disappointed with the crowd size considering you just won the cup, if the rolls were reversed the KC would of been rocking to cheer the boys home what ever team we decided to play.
But back to my point well played future looks bright for the plays that are coming throu. O on a side note what happened to that young fullback we had in lone from you last year (can't for the life of me remember his name) thought he has going to be the next big thing I was very impressesed while he was with us.

Aye I think our fans are perhsps too used to winning trophies. The easy (no disrespect intended) run didn't help. The FB you mention, Matty Russell, went to Gold Coast mate

Just let people do what they want and leave it be they missed out last night no loss to anyone else is it?

People can leave when they want. What difference does it make to you if they leave?
It actually helps you since there will be less congestion when you do leave.
Live and let live

It's a way for super-fans to justify how much super they are than other fans. The same sort of whoppers that dress head to toe in Wigan branded gear to prove how much more they support the club.
Pathetic.

I left Wembley early, because we were gubbins last week and I just wanted to leave. I got on the tube and sat next to a couple of Wigan fans. Without asking, there's no way they waited to see the cup presentation. Barking mad.

| I hate this argument, it's daft. So what if people leave early. Has it occured to people that they could be going for a bus or a train and don't want to miss it? Or they live quite a distance away and want to get home?
Grow up, they've bought their ticket, they can come and go as they please.
If we're going to be silly about it, why don't we tell everyone who goes for a pint during the game to hang their heads in shame? Or those who nip the loo? Have a day off guys. Do what you do, and let others do what they do. Not everyone is the same, it's all part of being, you know, human.

Exactly.
I used to think the same about people who got drunk before/during the game.
How on earth can they appreciate all the nuances of the game if they are not sober?
It's their choice. End.

Expect a similar no-show/early departure by the fans next Thursday when both teams are looking to lose.'"
Can't agree with this logic. There are 37 named as the first team & loans notwithstanding Wane's entitled to run out whoever he sees fit for given circumstances. If people don't like this then apply for his job & do it yourself. We may not agree all the time with his choices, but the creche played damn well last night and but for trying for a goal straight out of the scrum, a point would not have been sneezed at.
Should the season tickets be graded with a view to the maturity of the squad on the park? That is you only get to see ST/SOL/PR for example if you pay that little extra, and only the "lesser" players if you're a tight-wad? I think not.

| Half of the people I sit with have to leave early because they are unsteady on their feet and cannot cope with the crowd on the stairs, not because of drink but because of age/illness, should I refuse to talk to them Conroy?

| You're a good guy Conroy but you're in the wrong on this one pal.
Lots of people have things going on in life be it shift work, kids, can't afford it etc that means they can't get to games or need to get away early... we can't all be kid free, rolling in money and have all the time in the world to do what we like.
You telling everyone to hang there heads in shame, and even worse, showing contempt for people who can't make games, is abit naughty!
