| Quote 19 Leagues="19 Leagues"Because when the game is gone with 5 mins to go Bruce Willis isnt going to come on and say he is a ghost. When there is a point in a game and its still anyones game you dont see many going - and those you do will have genuine reasons believe me. But when the game is gone and you already know who's won people get off early to beat the traffic, catch the last bus, catch the last train etc. Its just a way of life. Comparing it to going the the cinema is just ridiculous.'"

| All this rubbish about the "Wigan Walk" YOU need a large crowd to notice people leaving early!
There's a good possibility that 90% of people commenting on this topic have never been to a game at Wigan and wouldn't know the difficulties involved in getting away from the ground after the game.
and for the record i prefer to stay and applaud the team after the game, and i have no problem with some people wishing or NEEDING to leave early.

| Quote Yed="Yed"I wonder what all fans of all clubs that leave early have to do that's so important, what's the rush to get home ?
=#BF0000People wouldn't leave the cinema 10-15 mins before the end or go ten pin bowling and not bother with the last couple of frames.
I don't know about other people but i just love being at the game, and i feel almost compelled to stay to the end to show my appreciation for the people who have entertained me, including the opposite team.
I'll get home eventually anyway and probably do bugger all when i'm there.'"
Do you know legendary urban myth that there are literally hundreds of Wiganers who don't know that Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker's dad.
Only once have I left a cinema early.
"Pret-a-porter" back in the early 90's.
Fooking gash. I wasn't the only one either.

I presume some like me don't live in Wigan and need to catch a train out of Wigan and then a bus home. Luckily I can stay till the end of matches but I guess there are those who have to get out a few mins before the end.

Doesn't really matter on the distance, it's difficulty getting home, especially if you use public transport.

| Who decides the 'end' of the match?
I'd say the end of the match is not the final whistle, but when the win or loss is sealed.
At the end of the day, who gives a toss??
