Disappointing and borderline embarrassing imho.
I'm generally not one who cares if people want or need to leave early. And I'm realistic about regular poor atmospheres at home because I witness them everywhere, even though I'd obviously prefer it to be better.
However, we've had a few games this season where even after wins, very few have been left to clap the players off.
Today, Boxing Day, sell out crowd, 3-1 win to go 8 points clear in the automatic promotion places and hardly anyone left in the ground to applaud the players off.
Even in League 1 we had 75% of the Kop staying behind and giving a rousing cheer.
Struggling to remember such a pathetic number of fans left to acknowledge a win on a Bank Holiday full house in such a lofty position.
I know individuals will respond with their own circumstances, plenty which I understand and respect, but in over 40 years watching us, today genuinely surprised me how few waited just a few minutes to clap us off.
I've seen more when we've been shit in this league and below.
