The one at Blackburn is horrendous. Yes. Ban them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 1,545 Posted June 7, 2019 They are ok for getting the crowd going if things are a bit quiet, but if the atmosphere is good then there is no need to keep banging them-and certainly not for the whole game. The most annoying thing is when they speed up and slow down (if you’ve ever played in a band you’ll know what I mean)😀😀😀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted June 7, 2019 At least the drums might drown out the pathetic whistling you hear at Spanish and Portugese games when the opposition has the ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobLoz3 492 Posted June 7, 2019 Hmm... Let's do away with some atmosphere at the grounds because it's too noisy! I dunno. I don't really care for the type of person who would mindlessly bang the drum in a non-rhythmic manner but I don't think the drum has much say in it... I've always thought that having someone playing speed metal on a guitar at a football ground would be... cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,138 Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) Personally, I have long thought that a brief blast on the didgeridoo coming from the main stand every time the opposition score a goal would be quite appropriate: Edited June 7, 2019 by BroadstairsR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woodman 92 Posted June 7, 2019 Vuvuzelas were all the rage at the 2010 World cup... https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2010/jun/05/2010-world-cup-vuvuzela-history The 'England Band' have been following the team all over the world - they seem to pick up whatever is the latest terrace chant and turn it into a brass rendition.

Who knows what they'd make of Farke's on a horse...! The difference here is that a vuvuzela is one of THE WORST sounds know to man. It just sounds as though a swarm of buzzy insects are out to attack you. The things were ridiculously annoying! Way more so than a drum! Brass bands should be at more football grounds though! Gotta love a top quality brass... 🤪 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,777 Posted June 7, 2019 I know I'll probably get some stick, but I can't see why they're a problem. You can't beat a bit of atmosphere, and that's what they provide. I don't know why you're all banging on about it as if it's a major problem. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
