Never once witnessed anyone leaving after going a goal down after 15 mins. Three down at half time in a hampden semi thousands left, granted, myself included. Folk heading out at 4 15 on a regular basis, again, never seen this.

I've probably walked out early in a handful of games over the years (the most recent being the league cup final)
I hate walking out early, but there's been the odd occasion where you just can't suffer watching your team get beat to death. to be honest it's the leaving early to avoid hearing the abuse that some folk around you are giving the team when they are failing miserably. I've Never left a game when we are only one goal behind, never understand that mentality.
In China, it's a person who spends all day on the toilet.
Ill get my coat :(
I have seen people leave at 4:15 plenty times personally. Around about me in the lower RDS there are some non-season ticket seats that remain empty most games, but when it gets to "big" games, they tend to be filled by utter wallopers. These are the guys that lose their sh!t at the most minor issues and walk out when they feel it isnt going our way. I usually say "see you at the next Sevco/Celtic game" when they leave.
I understand that there are those who cant help but be PT supporters with work commitments, distance etc, but these numpties do not fall under these categories.

The quicker they are to lose their brad pitt, the quicker they are to walk out.
I don't like Derek's conservative game management, his use of substitutions, lack of youth player game time and playing 3 at the back.
However at the risk of being labelled a happy clapper, I would suggest some perspective. In our history we have had 23 permanent managerial appointments. Before Derek only 7 of them have won anything significant. Fergie and only 2other managers have won more than one trophy and those 2 won only 2. So we currently have a manager with one of the best percentage win rates and fourth most successfull. Given the years of complete shyte we had to endure since the mid 90s, I dont think he's done a bad job and am "happy" he is our manager.
Aye, but you're fae the Broch.

A 'Happy Clapper' is someone who can't see the demise of Aberdeen Football Club.
