Reminds me of that Crewe game when a certain well known Morecambe fan left early (
I think because it was his birthday?) and missed the most amazing turn around! Some Crewe fans left early to catch a train and were told the score at Lancaster train station, they didn't believe it!

One bus left a minute early with us losing and a Chorley corner deep in injury time. Chorley whipped the corner in, with their manager screaming for them to play it short. We cleared it, straight up the other end to equalise! Extra time. We went on to win the final, our first success after decades of doom and gloom (thank goodness Shrimpsvoices wasn't around during the late 70's and most of the 80's!
In the days before mobile phones (
if the younger views can imagine such dark, satanic, black & white days?) the first bus arrived back in Morecambe but there was no sign of a second one. They were beginning to seriously worry when the 'lost bus' arrived back, celebrating!
Did anyone leave early tonight? Name them!
