BobBobSuperBob Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 There were plenty who missed both goals !! Got to say I didn't give us a prayer with a couple of mins left and thought Agards was merely a consolation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I admit I left early and missed the goals. Karma is a b***h. Don't worry about it. When the fixtures came out, I rescheduled a meeting from late on Tuesday to late on Wednesday. Couldn't change it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westonred Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I got a 40 minute journey home but would never leave early. A person wouldn't go to the pictures and leave before the end of the film so why leave games early. If we are losing that's when the team need our support most, it mist dishearten the players knowing that the fans have given up and heading for the exits. It also spurs the oppositions fans and team as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I had my mind made up to leave when the sign for added time came up but Agard put his in about 2 minutes before that so I stayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I admit I left early and missed the goals. Karma is a b***h. I have to ask why. Late goals happen so frequently in football, and they are so exciting when they do, I just can't understand why you would be willing to miss something you've paid to see.

Mad Cyril Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I find it easier to arrive late thus removing the need to leave early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you implying the reason is traffic? I've asked numerous times on here where this traffic "nightmare" occurs that people talk about and no one has ever given me a decent answer. I park at the cricket club, never leave early and I'm always back in Chippenham inside an hour. I just don't see where this mythical traffic that causes people to leave early actually occurs.

BS2 Red Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 A mate of mine left early last night, he says he heard the first City goal go in as he got to the exits and then heard the second when he was on the bus stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CotswoldRed Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 I just got thought 50 mile drive in the rain so beat the traffic, I just got outside the Dolman and we heard the goal I had a 65 mile journey back. Watched both goals, waited for the ground to empty for 10 mins and drove home without traffic. Mint. These days I find it easier to delay leaving until the place is empty, rather than rushing around the final whistle. Hate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closest thing to a traffic nightmare I've come across is travelling up North Street and joining Coronation Road, then travelling on to meet the M32 via Temple Meads. Never do that any more though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Which way do you go? Back over the swing bridge, along the river, past the Hippodrome, M32, M4. Never more than a moderate amount of traffic and certainly not enough to risk missing any part of the game for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if the centre is busy head up past QEH and then past the uni and down past the BRI and on to the M32 that way. Been doing that for years and never had to miss the end of a match to get home in a respectable time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite agree I have a journey in from B-O-S and this season park in Long Ashton as am in Dolman this year. Used to watch em from the Williams for years and to be honest find it quite funny. I go to football to watch 90 minutes of a game, I can go to a pub any time in the week but in the Dolman am constantly getting up to let people past to get to the bar 10 minutes before half time then 10 minutes after. As for leaving early, cant get my head round that one. I wait for 10 minutes, walk back to LA and then 40 minutes drive home and I am in my late 60's. Kids today eh :pacifier: :pacifier: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 They should make an early leavers end of season DVD. The last 3 minutes of every home league game. Great present for Dad's who missed the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome To The Jungle Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 Must have averaged a mere 2mph till I got to north street last night due to the traffic. I was then able to accelerate to my normal 3mph cruising speed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanley Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Cotterill just mentioned it on the player interview, said; "we want everybody to stay until the final whistle" "please stay a little bit longer" "we need you with us this season, a lot more than last year" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aizoon Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I left early today because I wasn't happy about catching the bus from its new departure point with the new stadium layout. Now I'm happy about it, I'll wait until the end next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
