Huddersfield Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I was just inspired by the first match thread. How many times have you ever left a match (club or country) GENUINELY believing you were done & were never going again? I can only remember one...an away match at Macclesfield in December 2003; stood in a freezing cold open end in a dilapidated ground watching us lose 4-0. I remember sitting in a Burger King on the way home seriously planning what else I could do with my Saturdays. In the end I didn't mean it, but at that moment I really, truly believed I was finished for good with football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandydunn Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 When the prices started getting ridiculous for Scotland games. Poland was my last one with my boy and haven’t been back since. Didn’t renew my membership and even let someone else use my membership for the England game, something I’ve always wanted to see. No regrets.

Fairbairn Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Had a season ticket at Ibrox for around 25 years. Last game was the last game of our first season back in the top flight. Beat Hearts 2-1 and it was a good game and a cracking day out but that was an anomaly to the previous 5+ seasons where I jus my hadn’t enjoyed going and was only making about half a dozen games a season. If it hadn’t been for “relegation” I’d have jacked it in long before. I knew after that Hearts game I was done and haven’t been back since.

Redz Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 AFC - 'Genuinely?' Probably several times spanning the last 25 years I guess - I've no discipline though 😂 (That said, I haven't been to a home game this season - 1st time in 50 years) SFA - Didn't renew - Don't miss it at all (At the moment ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveHFC Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Scottish Cup Final 2012. Enough said. That day showed the club didn't give a toss about the result and it's fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanderark14 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Too many times to count but livingston at home losing 6 nil was one match which sticks out. I had a season ticket that season.........i went back the next home game.😂😂😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Munro Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 Have said it about Scotland away trips a few times but never for home games or club stuff. Usually said by attention seekers who don't mean it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottincarlisle Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 After putting up with all the bell ends on the Dublin - Bratislava flight I said that was it. I went the following month to Wembley as we were booked up but I think I've only been to 2 home games since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan cake Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Scottish cup final 2016, watched the Hibernians home and away for 25 years and had now (finally) seen them win the Scottish Cup and the league cup a couple of times. They’re realistically never going to win the league so for me job done. Haven’t been at a game since and have no intentions of attending in the future, a random European away trip being the only exception that could tempt me. A great journey of highs and lows that’s taken me all over Scotland Europe and even the Caribbean, best to go out on a high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoofitharder Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Almost every game this season it has been horrendous for me. In fact our chairman said at Saturday's game that there is a good chance the national League will expunge this season's results which means we won't get relegated if that is correct I am calling it a day I can't go through this again.

Robbo `81 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Scotland v Belarus 2005 Scotland losing 1-0 with about 20 mins to go, Centre back plays straightforward ball to Right back on sideline, under no pressure he miscontrols it for a Belarus throw in. I stood up, said "enough" out loud and walked up the stairs saying to myself that was it, I was never going to another Scotland game. And I never have been back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I never have been back that was a bad one ; they scored early on , we had to win to stay in contention but WS continued in with the lone striker role with the hope pinned on kenny misser - okay he scored a lot of decent goals , but he wasnt really that prolific for us (norway beat slovenia away i recall to put a dent in our slim hopes) i just checked the archives , and turns out was my last home game at hampden too - more of circumstance tho as moved to Canada few months later - remember being in Puerto Pollensa when we played faroes & lithuania since then ; ive only seen live games which were friendlies - v USA in jacksonville , & Mexico in the Aztec keep telling the kids i ll take them to a tournament....... altho we have a north american world cup on the horizon ?

loanhead-tartan Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Never said enough is enough but I’ve stayed away for months at a time in the past when it was utter dross being served up by amateur level players . Was totally scunnered when Ross county beat us 2-1 in the 2016 League cup final , my next game after that was the play off defeat to Falkirk . Gave them one last chance the week after in the Scottish cup final and well that shut me up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davierobbsagod Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 There were 5 travel club members at our address I was the last to go this year with not renewing CBA any more with the ridiculous nights we played on as for todders I regularly turn down free offers of corporate tickets... currently watching and travelling for more rugby games now and have absolutely no idea whats going on but I do have a drink in my hand ....
