Non-Attending Play-Off Blades

[CaptainMorgans]

Some are predicting our lowest turnout of the season for the play-offs.

Historically, I don't think our attendances have been particularly good for them with 10-20% of our regulars not in attendance.

No judgement, I might not be able to make it myself.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

None of the above.

 

[robbiez666]

I would suggest it's a combination of a lot of things, but playing on a Monday night really doesn't help.

Too far logistically for me on a work day.

Would have to set off for 2pm and not get in till gone 1am

The 11 hour bender is not mandatory

 

[Frank the tank]

O I'm a miserable Fannie

 

[Grey Blade]

I will be going but if I was relying on the train to get me home I couldn't go as I can't get home. The same dilemma would apply if we get to the final and the kick off is any later than 3pm - but they don't care do they (TV companies) ?

Completely ridiculous that they've not decided the kickoff time 2 weeks before the final

 

[Guesty]

I've got my ticket to the home leg but I don't think I'll go to Wembley should we get there. It's a horrible experience and I don't think seeing us win there would prevent it being a shit day.

The pricing and Monday night game is not ideal but our fans "were all ready beaten" glass half empty attitude is a big part of why we're shit in the playoffs.

As much as they are MASSIVE bell ends, the pig fans are generally a lot more optimistic

 

[LS16Blade]

I have bought my ticket but given how hard it is to get through this country’s crumbling road network - and I’m only just up the road in North Leeds - the chances of getting there after work are slim. At the moment, it’s an obstacle course of roadworks just to get to the M1 in this dump of a city.

So, the chances are that my 37 quid is money down the drain…but at least I’ll be counted on the attendance figure…

Winning there would make it an excellent day...

Best way to get promoted...

I still think 90+% percent of the day would be a tedious concrete nightmare.

Supergrass on same neyt

If you're driving it's probably a bit shit

Tend to get the train down early and use it as an excuse to go and have a day on beers in London... The football kind of gets in the way a bit

 

[Frank the tank]

Must be a real kick in the bollox for the players knowing the fans don't give a fuck
After all the other incidents of apathy and outrage this season

I’ve put match fatigue, it’s a weird one but I just can’t get excited and almost don’t care. As I said, weird one

Edit: worth saying I’m away with work anyway but wouldn’t have gone if I was in the uk

 

[Foody]

Monday night is a right pain. I'm working down in London, didn't want to use holiday on the chance we finished 3rd.
So sadly will be watching from a pub down there. Hopefully, there'll still be a decent turnout though.

It is crap at Wembley, but us winning there and not being there, you'd kick yourself.

 

[Harry's Game]

I’m going to the home leg but if we get through not going to Wembley.

 

[Gimli]

Selected ‘School night’ which is closest to - ‘have other commitments so can’t get there’

That’s specifically in reference to the home leg of the semi, I’ll be going to Wembley if we make it through. We haven’t witnessed all of the crumbles in the play offs to then not go to the one we end up winning!

 

[georgebernardshaw]

O I’m told old for this sort of shit now

 

[Paul1963]

I need an “other” box, I’m in Kuwait as my daughter is having her first child and our first grandson tonight and we promised we would be here for them

Hope all goes well!

 

[Montymagic]

Home match yes.


Wembley no.

Cost and hate Wembley, it's shite.

 

[Bl4desutd]

I’ve fought our corner all season when my piggy mates have tried to take the piss out of our fanbase…. but I’m waving the white flag if the numbers turn out to be as poor as predicted

 

[Paisley Blade]

I've been on the planet 60 years now, and been attending BDTBL for 55 of them.

As long as one foot goes in front of the other, I'll still go to the Neasden hell hole in the hope we can finally win a big un.

It can get fucked after that though.

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Not even thinking about Wembley yet. There on Monday but will have to drive for the same reason as others about trains from Leeds

and when you can’t do that, you can always moonwalk.. UTB
