I would welcome them back, but i am not sure if anyone can remember when we last played Rotherham at home and someone tried bringing in a drum and got it confiscated, due to health and safety, the away fans are allowed them in but the home fans are not. Stupid i know,
Don't think the CK Beckett Band has the same sound to it......... Thats what they will have to be called
Not bothered either way...its where to put them though....perhaps the area at the corner between the Ponty end and the West stand ....where they had HLinneker and Co for the Chelski game... maybe there might be a place for them. It would not take a lot of sorting out to stick a few seats there , just an idea
No, please, please no.... ...leave it to Washday. The band were well annoying. Football atmosphere is all about passionate people showing passionate support for the club they love...and also the odd show of derision for the opposition and local rivals. It's about coming away from the match with a sore throat and sore hands after showing 90+ minutes of vocal support for your team. The band were annoying, appeared on the band wagon when we got into the premier league and were absolutely tuneless.
No problems with that, but far and away the best way to create an atmosphere would be to get rid of Davey and get a manager in who would get the team playing winning attractive football, then you would have all the atmosphere you want.
No point blaming the team, Davey, etc...... the home crowd should always make a dcent enought bit of noise in my opinion. The advent of the all-seater stadium has definitely contributed to a lack of atmosphere at many English grounds methinks.
