You’re calling folk who go to the toilet and other folk who come in to the game early when you’re trying to sing a “disruption” but I’m the drama queen. Nae bother.
You’re the one suggesting I want concentration camp rules ffs. I’m just back from a holiday. Not getting involved so we’ll leave it at that When did I do that?
You’ve said that someone who wants to get a pie then go to the toilet, and someone else who actually comes to the games early but arrives during YNWA, are “more hassle than folk who leave early” and “cause disruption”.
It’s a really strange thing attitude that, I’d say they’re just doing absolutely normal things that folk do at the fitba, but each to their own.

and I've paid my money, so I'm entitled to be annoyed when I'm deprived of the chance to watch the entertainment that I've just paid for. Leave early, if you must, but do it in a manner that causes the least inconvenience to the rest of us who are trying to watch the game.
Don’t think it’s restricted to early leavers. There’s a guy that turns up 5 minutes late for every game with two weans in toe. Every game it’s the same. I think they go to the snack bar first. There’s another guy that sits further along who goes for his Pie after 15 mins and usually the toilet during the 2nd half. 3 times I’m up and down for this clown. There’s a guy who will turn up tonight because it’s a big game. Usually a women and child who use the seats and he usually piles in mid YNWA which is a real pain in the arse. I’d say, supporters like these are more hassle than those who decide to get up and go before the game is done. None of that would really bother me too much. There's an old guy at my bit who turns up 5 minutes late every game, whips out a wee plastic trophy to sit on top of the exit and usually accompanies it with other Celtic memorabilia. Saturday was a Tommy Burns book, in the past it's been DVD's, then he bends down, kisses the steps and blesses himself then heads for his seat. Whenever we score he heads down, grabs the trophy and lifts it to the crowd like he's Billy McNeill in Lisbon. That is starting to do my head in

All fine and well, on occasion, not like clockwork. You’re the one whose blown this into some massive issue. It’s an inconvenience when it happens consistently, every game. Do I start greetin about it? No, I don’t. I followed on a point about supporters being inconvenienced due to people leaving early before you waded in with your hyperbolic nonsense. No issues with people eating or going to the toilet either - drama queen.
He's hardly being a drama queen by calling you out for what you said. I take it you never attended a game at the old CP? He took his point to extremes as if I’m outraged at anyone who wants to eat or go to the toilet. I’m not complaining about someone needing the toilet or needing to grab some food but these folk have the same pattern all the time.
Feck it though, this is getting boring
Started going regularly at 9 years of age in 88. Used to stand in the same spot in The Jungle.

Everyone has a late arriver/early leaver beside them. It's the CL day trippers that do my head in at times. I had a guy beside me at the Astana game who filmed practically the whole 90 minutes. Had another at the PSG game, who kept taking selfies and sending them to his pals during the game.

I've not taken anything to extremes - you're moaning about folk doing perfectly reasonable things then when i've pointed out that they're not doing anything wrong or anything worth moaning about, you've just started calling me a drama queen and accusing me being hyperbolic and pedantic.
I'm no making this up, btw. You wrote about a guy arriving at his seat when YNWA is on as being "more hassle than someone leaving early" - how is that a hassle and what would you prefer the guy done instead?

You don’t seem to want to grasp the fact it’s the exact same people at the same time. It’s not someone going to the toilet, it’s a planned pish, same with the food. Basically, they think eff the que, I’ll go after 15m to save me waiting, same with going for a pish at the same time every week.
Pieman heading along the row when we’re in on goal or got a corner is annoying.
I’ll answer the YNWA point then I’m done.
On that point, fair enough I’ve no right to be annoyed. It does annoy me though as I like to enjoy the moment. Most people know to be in early on a European night to contribute to the YNWA. I’m in the zone at that point and for it to be done the way it should then the whole stadium needs to in sync and it’s the best part of the European experience.
That’s my own personal view and as I’ve said if someone is in before kick off then I can’t complain. Still pish though 
No more

Just on the topic of late arrivers, there is a guy in front of us who always arrived 5 minutes late. No matter what game. We actually thought he might be hoopy because you never saw them both at the same time. Anyway, I got chatting to him at half time and he is a great guy. He looks after his parents and relies on friends and family getting there to allow him to slip away. This is his respite. Anyway, since then I have no issues with hoopy. He is sound. I am sure many people have their own reasons for ruining our day!

None of that would really bother me too much. There's an old guy at my bit who turns up 5 minutes late every game, whips out a wee plastic trophy to sit on top of the exit and usually accompanies it with other Celtic memorabilia. Saturday was a Tommy Burns book, in the past it's been DVD's, then he bends down, kisses the steps and blesses himself then heads for his seat. Whenever we score he heads down, grabs the trophy and lifts it to the crowd like he's Billy McNeill in Lisbon. That is starting to do my head in

You don’t seem to want to grasp the fact it’s the exact same people at the same time. It’s not someone going to the toilet, it’s a planned pish, same with the food. Basically, they think eff the que, I’ll go after 15m to save me waiting, same with going for a pish at the same time every week.
So, in a thread where we are moaning about people leaving early/arriving late, we're also moaning about a guy who would rather miss 2 minutes of the game queuing rather than 10? It can't come as a great surprise that nobody wants to stand in a queue for a length of time.

Moaning about people coming in early, not during the game, but during YNWA?
I think we've reached peak KDS up-itselfedness.
