Just curious. I have played FM for years and I have never seen a comeback win or draw after the losing squad's fans have left the building. Has anyone ever seen a comeback draw or win after the doubters have departed?

Nope...

I find that realistic though. If the players notice most of their followers other than the diehards have buggered off the last bit of wind in their sails will go out the window.

Honestly I find the team whose fans left usually leak a goal or two after the fans leave.

Yeah. Punters tend to leave around the 75 minute mark. Leaves plenty of time fro screw ups. Seen it in game and irl

I was at a match IRL last night in which one of my section-mates, usually a vocal proponent, trudged for the exits with just a few minutes remaining...

... only to come running back in to celebrate with the rest of us when the side pulled it out in the last seconds.

LOL

Coldest thing I ever saw... when I was 7 my school won our youth football championship against another team in our school division. We were something like 4-0 up with 10 minutes to go and the other team's parents started leaving. :eek:

There's a morale boost for the kids :p

I remember only one, but that one vividly, as it was my first ever Allsvenskan match with IF Akropolis.

We played Elfsborg, or rather they played with us. 2-0 down, 81st minute, fans heading for the exits. And then came two unbelievably stupid defensive mistakes, and we pulled level

**** the glory supporters, that should theach them a lesson :cool:

Last year playing for my local team, FC Balloch we were 5-1 down to Campsie Boys Club with around 5 minutes to go. 2 of our subs left because it was freezing and Michael Fulton (Legend, 50 goals in 14 games last season) scores 4 to make it level. Now I'm a lazy bampot who plays FM.

George Best famously left the nou camp with 5 minutes left in the champions league final.....then fate took hold and he missed his beloved Man Utd clinching the treble

a true fan watch the games till the end, whether its a win or lose, only my opinion though. but now never had it happen to me. did happen in an American Football game however, a late comeback by the Jets against the Dolphins, i think its considered the greatest comeback in the NFLs history

retired_julienew1212

Yeah it happened to me recently in FM as PSG in the first season, 2nd to last game playing against Toulouse away from home. Up 2-0 with about 10 mins in regular time, they score with a shot from 25 yds out. They pile on the pressure for the next 10 mins and just when I think I'm about to pull out with a 2-1 win, they get a free kick just outside the box. I don't need to tell you what happens next.
