Not sure Becky will be there. Seems like she likes to keep a low profile and not hog the limelight…….

I sense embarrassment as they do a lap of honour to a half empty stadium.

This always doesn't sit right with me...

 

I'm not saying everyone SHOULD stay, but every year it sticks in my mind that Vichai looked gutted walking around the empty stadium, almost embarrassed for the last time he attended an end of season lap of honour. I know it's not all about them, and that season was equally as disappointing and boring, but you never know what you have until it's gone.

Did many people stay behind for this ?

Did Tielemans look like a man soon to be off??

Yes, unfortunately I thought Kasper did too.

[HybridFox]

Thought Brendan would have addressed the crowd. Bit disappointed he didn't tbh

 

Good effort from the fans to stay behind

No, not particularly.  Didn’t seem too different to any other player whilst walking and waving.

Nice to see the majority  of us staying behind, pit it didnt stop the mass  exodus for the fire drill at 85 minutes🙄

pretty sure it's not really possible to read much into the lap of honour. they're all going to walk around and clap, whether they're staying or going

What a shame. It's almost as if you have no choice over what people decide to do with their free time. Cry more.

Try not to be a big  tool.

Its the last game of the season, it's a Sunday afternoon, theres no Emmerdalr or Coronation  Street to run home to watch.

The least fans can do is just stay and applaud the players for another 10 minutes after a whole season.

I stayed behind after the Spurs game last season and it was brilliant to see all the players & Top close up, didn’t make it today as I have a funeral in Leicester in the next week or so, I don’t think I could manage the 600 mile round trip twice in a week, looked like loads stayed behind on the stream I was watching it on… 

[HybridFox]

Don't know who's kid it was but everyone in the family stand side wide was going woahhhh when he was setting up the penalty then he just dribbled off

That’s the first time anyone’s praised my eloquence in the 17 years I’ve been on this forum so I’m taking that.

Why do they have to clear off down the tunnel for 5 minutes before the lap. That never used to happen.

Thought they were gonna come out with Birch t-shirts or something. Looks like they went for a sh**

Two fellas in front of me left at 81 minutes.

 

Eighty one. Straight after Perez’ goal.

 

They missed the fourth pissing goal!

[SheppyFox]

Tremendous support?

In my experience after playing a game of football, I can’t await to take off shin pads and get something more comfortable on my feet.

It can’t be to beat the traffic on days like today. I stayed for the whole lap, but because people were going out in smaller waves, it only took me 15 minutes to get home from the car park. Traffic just wasn’t an issue today.
