The band have had a friend or 2 in fairly influential positions at the club in this respect. they have, and you have to in your position ask WHY? some on here have been jumping up and down wanting the band out, and 'permission' for a singing section, 'PERMISSION' F***ING 'PERMISSION' to sing at a football ground? what year did that come in? do you get a permit? or can you bring a note from yer mam? what they likely need to do, and i've told 'em this, and told 'em it more than once, believe me. is find a home midweek match, and post on here and other places (perhaps facebook) that if you're interested in getting together singing and chanting at hillsborough on this date v. whoever, then meet at XXXX at a certain time, then go into the ground, to the back of the kop (but do it early enough if you can so the seats aren't occupied, or go late and rush the stewards) get next to the band and JOIN IN, remember like it or not THEY ARE ESTABLISHED, YOU ARE NOT, so don't go in looking for bovver, at this time you'll need them, and IF on a poorly attended night you can get some atmosphere onto the field then you have a good start, but you don't ask permission.

If you can't see that as a throwaway comment then it's not worth debating it with you any further, are you a band member? Someone else quoted Darren Ferguson earlier in the thread and said we should shoot them, did you take that seriously as well? Also if they are all big Wednesday fans then why on occasions have they chosen to attend other events instead of Wednesday games, including Leeds Rhino's?

Yours wasn't funny! How much would you have? As I said before, it was OK when it was just Hemmingham and maybe a drummer, we don't need the full orchestra.

I'm sorry, does the fact you have attended more matches than me make you more correct? I also went pre-band and it was better than it was now. If you care to read the rest of the thread, you will see I've explained why this is the case. Though maybe you were too busy spitting your dinner over your keyboard to notice.

The only thing which seems to spark any singing or shouting is the band. And generally they are quiet for quite long spells and there is no effort from the crowd to break the silence until the band start up. Even if you don’t love them, if they go the atmosphere would be permanently dead and that would be a disaster for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timrud Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 As I have already stated, people do not sing because of the band. They need removing for an extended period. People have given up trying to sing because the awful band drown them out. It's the same at England games, where they are equally hated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even when we score, the band seem to play a key role in lifting the noise and atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
