Left on 87, heard the roar walking down the side of the NS entrance, then another as I was walking down to the train platform.

That's the first time I've missed a goal since I left early and Newcastle scored the winner in the dying moments in February '17.

3 in 8 years. I'll take that.

Why would you leave just to stand outside the terrece I don’t get that one
Very strange. Anyone on here willing to admit they missed both goals as they were desperate to get in The Terrace?

Wonder if anyone has missed all 4 last minute winners in recent years?
People also missed the incredible Pedro winner against Marseille. That was 88th minute. Crazy.

Nobody ever seems to criticise the people that disappear 10 minutes before half time then reappear 10 minutes into the second half, they are even worse as haven’t gone to get trains etc
Why should anyone care what anyone else does?

If you arrive late, leave early, go for a beer whatever. It affects no one other than that person in question

Don’t understand why people get so worked up about it.

For people that are going to the bar they should be encouraged as they are putting money back into the club. Have never worked out why the game isn’t shown on the concourses for those that want to have a beer. Teams that do this always seem to have plenty of people spending money watching the game on TV rather than in the stands.

A simple “Guilty as Charged” Arthur would have sufficed 😂

Two fellas next to me left as soon they scored their 2nd, 82 mins on the clock. Didn't even wait for the VAR check. Maybe they had a genuine reason, but it just seems odd to me to leave a finely-balanced game with 10-15 mins left to play. They are not season ticket holders, so woulda paid £70 each for their tickets. What's the point?
Yep. An absolute mob left on 82.

It’s not a particularly good look when hundreds, if not thousands, of “supporters” are heading for the exits before the game has ended. Fans are the first to complain when players are not putting in a shift, it cuts both ways.

I stayed to the bitter end. Saw both goals. Had a lift home at 6 so no point me leaving early.

Don’t blame nor care that anyone left early around me. Excluding the woman and daughter who didn’t come back for the second half the 77th minute was the earliest people started leaving around me so they even missed the West Ham goal.

As I say I can’t blame anyone for wanting out. We were shit yesterday and the result papered over the cracks of yet another poor performance against a dreadful side.

I won’t criticise the early leavers but stayed until the end myself. Many around me in WSU left on their 2nd goal though so it was weird to be celebrating our two late goals and the nearest person to turn to and share the moments with was 5 seats away.
