Been to the B2Net tonight to watch Chesterfield v Charlton and both sets of fans had drummers. I was sat with da cockney geezers in the away end and there drummer was going for it and, played correctly and at the right times it really cranked up the atmosphere. Chesterfields' drummer was a bit shite as he only played it at corners and stuff and not at random throughout the game which made me wonder why he'd bothered bringing it in the first place.

What happened to our drummer that used to go to away games 5 or 6 years ago and who was he? Where is he and why don't / can't we have a regular drummer at away games? If it's a case of not being allowed to take drums into stadia then i've got a glockenspiel :ping: . LOVE that word, so unmistakenly Germanic

Its Awayday Paul, takes his drum when he gets the chance, but more often than not, the Nazis on the gate take it off him, something to do with tiny penis syndrome.

Matt.

Cheers Matt, is that 'awayday' as in the TUFC fans forum member 'awayday'? Are they one and the same? It's a shame that drums aren't permitted in some grounds by miserable bastards. So long as cemtex isn't concealed then i don't see the harm in letting one in.

He was at Gillingham and they took the drum of him there. Don't know why. It was almost like they didn't want us to make any noise at all.

complain to the club? why shouldnt we be allowed a drummer

Oh and the singers at the end doesnt work, please stop

Can we please stop BANGING on about the damn drum

It's me

I go to more away games than home games (hence the username) but there are clubs who still won't let me take the drum in (Oxford, Gillingham to name just 2). It will be there on Saturday at Crawley, also Barnet, Burton, AFC Dons, Swindon (if they let me take it in this time) and some others that I cannot think of from the top of my head. Hereford and Oxford even though I will be there won't let me take in the drum.

You're doing a grand job Awayday ..top man

Cheers mate, I cannot grumble there are 4 things I like most in life..... football, drumming, eating and sex. Getting 3 out of the 4 in one game is great for me, so I am not going to grumble.

I took my didgeridoo to a couple of games a few years ago but only managed to get it through the gates once. Happy to try it again but not sure that I could keep up 90 minutes of didge without keeling over. Not too sure that anyone would want to sit next to 90 minutes of didge blowing either though?

I go to Mugello in Italy every year for Motogp, and on the gates and tickets is a sign that anyone making excessive noise will be ejected. Every year there, I see an Italian that takes a car engine, with exhaust attached and brass funnel on the end of it (like a kind of trumpet) - he starts the engine and just rev's it like mad for most of the main race -a mixture of very loud engine and huge farty noises plus the exhaust smoke. No idea how he gets it in and out each year, but he's always there. Just a thought if anyone wants to try it?

Maybe that's it, I can take in my ford mondeo, wind the windows down and put the stereo on loud, that way I don't need a drum I can just record it and play it back on the CD player..... whilst reving the engine.


There are people on here (Matt) who would love to see a proper car as well

Well it wouldn't be you STIP, Dave said you are not worth the vaz

I am not sure that masturbating in the toilets at half time actually counts as sex.

I am now picturing you eating a banger after banging some rhythms out and then banging one out and then banging on about an awayday win.... Banged to rights!
