    Drumming up a Storm

    I understand the club are on the lookout for some drummers to boost our flagging home atmosphere. I don’t mind listening at home to a spot of top class percussion now and again but I draw the line at the tuneless thunk,thunk,thunk of football drumming which drives me to the point of wishing to shove those bloody drums down the deepest darkest hole it is possible to find.

    They don't need idiots banging drums to create an atmosphere, just win a few games.

    Just imagine,being sat near to the numpty on the drums ..Surely there must be a health and safety issue here. 🤔

    I only wish it was alf. It unfortunately appears to be a real initiative by the club to “drum up” support. Hopefully it will not come to pass.

    One of our most stupid ideas then..All the comments I've seen are against this,so BFC will probably go against the supporters and get a drummer. 😳

    Quite a few years ago my brother in law got free tickets for him and his daughter to watch Bolton at the Reebok as it then was. He couldn't make it so I did the honours and we sat behind the goals at the home end where there was a numpty with a big base drum. It was bloody awful, not only distracting but seriously uncomfortable, you could feel the percussion in your chest, some sort of resonance I suppose.

    I’m kind of positive to this. I only go for a game or two each year, so I won’t be listening to it every second week, but most of you lot don’t go every game do you, except for BT.
    It gets a bit quiet at times at Turf Moor… But I think I would ask for a few songs or something like that from the fans before ordering a big drum

    I went to the Crown Ground a few years ago, the incessant drumming meant I never went to watch Stanley again.
