Burnley advertising for a drummer.

They were. Now they're asking the fans how to improve the atmosphere.

777 struggling to put together funds to buy Everton apparently might be good news for Everton if they don’t get bought by them.

They will go into admin by Christmas if it falls through. And yet 777 are the worst kind of wankers. Bad times ahead for Everton.

Admin means 9 points docked and an FFP docking of points could pretty much see them off this season.

"Our support is fucking shit"

 

[Del Woppio]

They should be relegated just for that ffs

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Delia Smith all over again.

Football being expensive and not winning much isn't conducive to a good atmosphere. Not a burnley specific thing, the demographic going to football is getting older imvho

It’s endemic everywhere. Anfield was flatter than a witch’s tit yesterday.

Away fans generally make a lot more noise simply because it’s still the hardcore of the fan base. Go to old Trafford it can be very quiet but Man Utd travelling fans are usually very vocal.

The PR speak is atrocious but what’s wrong with drums?

It ain’t any sillier than the chants!

One is organic, the other manufactured shite

All drums are manufactured shite or specifically these drums because the club have requested them? Genuinely.

Speaking for England, you can't get a drum into a ground unless it's club approved so therefore manufacturered by definition. They are horrendous, try going in the away end at Huddersfield and hearing some talentless moron bang away tunelessly for 90 minutes in the enclosure next to you, it's painful. The England band can get in the bin as well.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Drums in grounds are organised look at me cuntery

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Not sure Leicester still have it, but it was good for a laugh when we beat them 4-1 years ago.

 

[Lycan]

Drums don't really 'fit' with most British club's support. Perfectly fine for a European or South American club but it doesn't ever really work here.

That cunt from Portsmouth with the bell used to hard fucking work & we only used to hear him 1 game a season.

I was at that game and we gave him loads of shit. Lee Jobber his name was, quite a well known supporter of theirs who went home and away.
