Indeed, my apologies.
The price of being on Sky, moved match days and lower attendances, coupled with it being a little overpriced.

| If the result is not in doubt, I usually leave with four or five minutes left on the clock. I live around 60 miles from the KC and make the journey from South Yorkshire to every home game (and some away ones). If not wanting to spend an extra twenty minutes getting off the car park and out of Walton Street makes me 'pathetic', then so be it.

Indeed, and the people proffering such views are usually 17 year old kids that get the bus and only have to up for College by 10am on a week day.
Most people who work and travel more than 10 minutes to games understand that leaving a bt early can make all the difference, 10 minutes leaving early probably gets you onto Clive Sullivan Way before the game finishes, which probably saves you in excess of 30 minutes on the journey home.

| Talking of Walton Street car park, it's been dreadful this year.
2 entrances are open which is fair enough, but 4 exits appear at the end of the match resulting in chaos.
Why not have just 2 exits? The Northern one to turn left, and the Southern one to turn right.
They could hand out leaflets when you arrive to make it clear which exits to use.

The 'organisation' of the car-park has been shocking since the stadium opened, they struggle to cope with a 10K crowd, never mind a capacity 25K one.
as you say, it would only take a simple bit of thought and organisation to fix...but instead we have chaos after every game every year.

So if people travel 120+ miles to/from every home game and leave five minutes early they're less loyal fans than those who travel 4 miles but stay till the end?

Not at all, in fact i respect any fan who does that sort of journey. But leaving with 15mins to go? Plus, I seriously doubt the amount of fans left last night have to do that amount of miles.

| We do 130 mile round trip and stay until the end. Always use the Park and Ride which is very good.

I would consider using the Park and Ride, but I usually visit family before the game and head straight off after. I have two dogs, who usually come with us, and I don't think they'd be very welcome at the KC (or on the Park and Ride).

Well it appears im not the only one judging by the amount of people who seem to be drifting away from the club every game. The attendance last night was very poor imo but why would you want to spend a hell of a lot of cash to sit in a freezing cold ground with no atmosfear, expensive beer and more than likely watch your team fall apart in the way they did? If id of gone last night with my mrs and kids, maybe had a couple of beers and a bit of tea youd be looking at £120+ and for what? Seriously ive got better things to spend my money on as lots of others seem to also feel as well.

Heres a solution. If you cant afford to go, and hate everything about it and basically just moan about everything you can think of... Don't go then! Simple!
