[Archived] Vuvuzela'S At Ewood Park

[Mr Maureen]

What a set of miserable buggers we are!!

A few here and there won't do any harm will they?

I'd see them as part of the mix but can't see them catching on any more than the mexican wave fad that briefly tried to make itself part of football experience

"Wont do any harm will they"

Bit rich from you Mr Drummer boy.

They'll be banned the moment one sparks Andrews out and inadvertently wins us the game.

[Ben-2000]

DON'T ban them.

a few here and there will be good... that's all there would be anyway.

Singing would still be heard, in SA 90% of the crowd had them, that won't happen over here.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

ANYONE blowing one of those things near to my ears and I will not be responsible for my actions.

[67splitscreen]

Nowt to do with me .... Honestly.

[rovers1995]

Wasn't bothered either way, but after going to Huddersfield last night and hearing ONE of their fans with a vuvuzela, I have changed my mind.

Ban them now, one was loud enough, imagine a stadium full.

Yea, that one vuvuzela totally destroyed the atmosphere last night.

I am bringing mine whether you lot like it or not, I have my human rights.

[Majiball]

I hope you've got good health insurance. Can you play any tunes.

Can't be worse than the drummer.

Can't be worse than the drummer.

there is a guy near me in the JW Upper who is always trumpeting; he plays a mean tune after a few beers and a Hollands pie.

[Majiball]

OH you sit in the JW upper, ###### thats were I normally sit when I go along.

Play away mate as long as its not so noisy it drowns out my ipod.

Despite the fact it made TV viewing rather tiresome I still want to experience what they are like when I'm in the ground.

I'm keen to hear a dud la dud la da charge, everytime we go on the attack.

[waggy]

you need the lips to play tunes

[Tim Southampton Rover]

An Italian man fired shots from a rifle and rammed his car into a bar after being driven mad by the incessant blowing of vuvuzela trumpets, the noisy instruments which became notorious during the World Cup in South Africa.

[USABlue]

Ban Em. Personally they ruined the World Cup for me, almost as much as Englands diabolical peformance.

[brfcshabba]

Anybody hear any of these?

[Hughesy]

Anybody hear any of these?

No thank god!

[Ben-2000]

I think so... walking towards Darwen End just before half time and sure I heard one.

[thenodrog]

Anybody hear any of these?

I wouldn't have been able to hear ten thousand bloody Vuvuzelas over the ludicrous noise levels of the speakers in the JW Upper. Bloody awful racket. If one wants to hold a converstaion with other supporters / friends at half time it's damn near impossible. It shouldn't be so. I haven't seen many people for 4 months and I can't even hold a basic conversation because of 15 mins of the half time scores, the piggin match draw and banshee level music.

Anybody from BRFC lurking around please take note!!

[J*B]

Definitely heard one towards the last 10 minutes of the game coming from either JW upper/lower towards the Everton fans, or from the Everton fans themselves. Quite afew others in the Darwen End "noticed" it too.

Its the same in Riverside - its a bloody racket. You cant chat to your mates because of the noise levels. I was wondering if there are any Health and safety guidelines on volumes levels for PA systems on concourses. I have a meter on my phone and its was peaking at 110 decibels.

They used to have to keep the volume down when Ewood was first rebuilt because of complaints from local residents. I could hardly hear the thing then. Sublime to the ridiculous now.

[Ben-2000]

What did they expect when they moved next door to a Football Stadium?!

It is possible that the football stadium moved next to them
