the Drum was just embarrassing. which idiot had that great idea? the same idiot that banned the drummer from WHL?
And those bloody clackers at Leciester and elsewhere. If they banned Vuvuselas, surely clackers should go too

To be fair to the club, they tried something to help the atmosphere re the vastness of Wembley, they heard the reactions the drum was getting 1st half and we never heard it again. At least they didn't drag it out for weeks or god forbid, the entire season. They even apologised for it on various communications, saying "we tried, it didn't work, we stopped".
Agree - love that we were on top of it and responded swiftly.
I think the club are trying to do the right thing in terms of atmosphere at home games. The drum was a well meant error but one that they admitted. We have pretty decent stewarding and did have at WHL. The club has also defended fans on e.g. the Y word issue. The new stadium will be the real test. If it does become purely happy clappy families and popcorn then football has died. Let's wait and see.
