They shouldn't be sitting in any of the stands if they're not prepared to get behind the team.

Drummer? .......That was just everyone banging the sheet metal at the back of the Park Lane wasn't it?
That's how it works now. Whenever I've been sat adjacent to any cladding in the SS it gets a wallop. Even the advertising hoardings take a beating if ever I'm sat front row. I was front row by the corner flag in the SW for the City game a couple of seasons back when Harry didn't get his move and wasn't in the squad. At the end of the game a STH behind me told me and the girls we should get those seats more often.
visually as well they are very prominent from a tv perspective. Know that shouldn’t make a difference but psychologically I think it does effect how teams feel about coming here
This phenomenon has occurred at many of the new stadiums that have been built in the last 30 years.
Visiting supporters dominate the proceedings. Away supporters are the backbone of every club.
From a survey apparently.
Thankfully it's the far corner opposite from us. I wouldn't want a drum going off next to me all game as I fear for the drummer's safety.
So Charlie Watts and his backing and will be in block 324. Is it a coincidence that there are lots of seats on Ticket Exchange for that block?
Bet the drum gets turnt way up to 11 when the "Levy Out!" gets going.
I think we need a designated cowbell-man!!accompanied by a
Because we all know, we need more cowbell!
The club should introduce a free bar 2 hours before the game and 3 hours after .......see what happens, plus say 2000 police .
Mr Nigel Tufnel! Maybe the best lead guitarist the world has ever seen!
Maybe they need to do a sound check with the trumpeter before Monday night's game? When he started up before the last home game it sounded like a giant angry hornet was buzzing around the place. Too much treble, not enough bass!
550 speakers around the stadium and they still can't get it right.

Can we also get free Ubers to and from the game please, so that us that need to drive can get smashed on the free beer ?
Gets my vote ..
I did notice at both NFL events, the speaker system seemed far better, much clearer speech and bass - seemed to go louder but without the shrillness and distortion. Pretty sure the NFL were using "our" speakers, maybe they use their own production equipment.
Poor old Pat Jennings' tribute to Bobby Charlton at half time was his normal mmmnmnmmn mnmnmn mnmnmmm mnmn, not helped by the PA.
Luckily I was sat next to a couple of fans from Ireland, who'd flown over specially to see a game, and they were able to translate some of it (but even they gave up after about a minute).
Danny the Drum mate!!!!
He used to be in the (old WHL) far 'wedge' corner of the Shelf/Park Lane....
So, they want volunteers to go and get flags before Kick-off for Chelsea, wave them a bit and then take them back as we kick-off. Not sure I would want to miss the first few minutes of the game, fair play to those that do though.. They have loads more available.
I did hear they were struggling to get people to do this, perhaps they need to think of another way of retrieving the flags rather than expecting them to be brought back as we kick-off. Maybe half time, or someone comes and gets them (not sure who though) ?

Bloke next to me did it a few times last season and it just seemed like a ballache. He was constantly trying to hand it round because his arms were tired
One way to improve atmosphere is to have a winning team playing great football . That’s what we have ,and that’s all we need.
Who wants to stand next to some drummer. They say the atmosphere in the Bundesliga is great but all you get is drumming plus monotonous chanting, same thing all the time.
The Premier League us too corporate and probably will never change.
