If I ever consider leaving early this is the game I think back to. I was living a hectic (in a good way) life back in 2003-04 and this was the only game I got to that season. I was living in Leeds, had driven down and was on my own and at half-time I was pretty fed up, a few guys sat along from me told everyone they were leaving and I seriously considered doing the same but I told myself I’d gone to all the trouble of getting there I might as well suffer another 45 minutes and the rest is history.A friend of mine (sadly no longer with us) was once so mad that he left Molineux at half time and went to the pub, saying he would see us after the game. On that particular day Wolves were 3 - 0 down at half time to Leicester City, and we all know what happened next...
Suffice to say he never left a game early again.
These days I stay behind after the game, clap the players off and a few of us gather together to catch up and talk about the game and are amongst the last to leave the ground. We’re so late leaving we’re often moved along by the stewards. It’s amazing how quiet and relaxing the walk back to my car and driving home is considering it’s probably only around 15 minutes after the final whistle.
