    At one time in the past it was unique and only went on at QPR but now dozens of nutters are on to it and it is really boring

    Very popular with the European teams.drums make it very difficult for the other teams fans to compete with the sheer noise, ie Dortmund, and eventually give up. People on here suggesting that we should be allowed drums for European nights, in order to balance up the noise. I think that would be ok, but not for premier league games.

    It masks how flat the sh!te atmosphere is in the ground.

    Why the security let the away fans from Dortmund bring that drum into SJP I'll never know! Basically handed the atmosphere over to them.

    What fans do in their own stadium, like that cheesy music small clubs play on the rate occasions they score a goal is equally demining and embarrassing. This is England, this is Football, this is proper sport not plastic melted cheese on Doritos & a large watered down Coke of $9.99.

    You can stick all that Americanised BS right up your A$$!

    Quite right. Those flappy clappy things Leicester had were embarrassing. What’s next? Hand held loud hailers?
    This is England. Here, atmosphere is made by singing and chanting. We should ban all drums and other artificial noise makers from our ground.

    I agree about the cheesy music and the exploding fireworks especially, hate them, but don’t see why we can’t have drums on European nights,like you say,handed the atmosphere over to them, so the drums do have an effect, on both sets of fans.

    Also the demoralisation of the away fans little drummer boy having his toy instrument taken away from him at the turn styles would be yet another dimension to the Fortress SJP!
