    Coming back from behind to win in the Championship happened only 3 times in 7 years. (Leeds, Cardiff and I've forgot other, which devalues this post somewhat!)

    But we've managed it now in consecutive games.

    I left at 1-2 and Laura stayed. She ribbed me afterwards when I was lauding it in The Mount and told the people round us I wasn't a proper fan because I didn't stay until the end like she does. Laura would stay while the end if we were losing 0-4. I've paid so I'm watching it she said.

    I remember staying to the end against Newcastle when we lost 5-0.... I've never left before the end.

    Laura makes me watch the Sky Live games until the end. The Cardiff City game sticks out the most. "Get behind them Steve. Give Valerie a chance, they don't play crap on purpose".

    Expressed another way, Doug O'Kane (Chron) tweeted that in the last 5 games we've won 3 times after conceding first and that's as many times as we'd done so in the previous 298 games at championship level. Wolves in Feb 2013 was the other. Amazing stat!

    They're stats I don't like to be honest. I'd rather not go behind in the first place. If you're playing right team they don't give you a chance to get back into it.

    Agree with Laura on this one. Plus if they put the effort in i like to applaud them off the pitch. Plus I hate fans singing " we can see you sneaking out" .

    I've only left early once.
    Stockport away, 1977. One of my first away games, me and a mate travelled with the Supporters Club. An awful game, which we lost 3-0, and an awful view from almost below ground level. We decided we'd had enough and came out 5 minutes before time, but then somehow got muddled up and couldn't find the coaches (we were only 16, so a bit wet in those days*).

    After a panicky few minutes, we headed back towards the ground, only to run smack bang into the reds fans stomping down out of the ground. They weren't in the best of moods and if we hadn't had our supporters club cards to prove who we supported, things might have got a bit hairy.

    Never left early after that. Now I'm a bit older and more appreciative of the players, I like to stick around and applaud.

    * Just to prove how daft we were - despite the scoreline, and the awful view, we went to Stockport again the following season. Nil bloody nil...

    My father said the same. The only reason for leaving a game early in his view was danger to physical safety, which did happen a few times.

    I remember asking if we could leave early in a home game v Leicester in the early 80s. If I recall correctly we lost 1 - 3 and had 2 red cards, one of which was a clear case of mistaken identity. I was distraught.

    OK, cards on the table. I've left early once. The 2-4 home defeat to Stoke last season. Left with 20 minutes to go with the score 1-4, so dissappointed I was. I made it home for the full time results for the first time since I can ever remember. The wife nearly fell off the settee, she thought someone was trying to break in the house lol :)

    I am not being pedantic my friend but we have not done it in consecutive games , we were not losing to Wycombe & the match before we lost to Bournemouth , it was the match before that against Birmingham we did it for the first of the three , great achievement

    I'd like to think I never leave early, and I never did. I've paid for every bit of that misery. But once, against Charlton, I must have left very early. I was on the bus home and I seem to remember we got 2 or 3 goals back.

    Don't know if it was the same game (or I've left early on more occasions that I thought) but it's surreal having a piss in the East Stand bogs when there is an eruption in the stands directly above you as we score.

    We have come from behind in consecutive away games though, in fairness to @Cunning Stunt (plus he's already admitted to being out on the lash :):) so cut him some slack:)

    He's talking about Wednesday and Preston. Consecutive games, weren't they?

    No harm done. I wasn't having a dig either, just trying to unmuddle the confusion. :)
