So if you're a supporter of Wigan, Bradford, Hull FC or Warrington and still have your trip to make to the Twickenham Stoop, now you know.

I can't believe that link is real.

People bringing vuvuzelas to the Stoop is the least of Harlequins crowd problems.

It might create some atmosphere

Yes, I imagine this is an attempt at a publicity stunt. The club has far more important concerns, like fielding a competitive team and increasing crowds.

I don't know about Vuvuzelas, but somebody had something that made a noise like a dying duck in the East stand at Wigan on Sunday.

I think they have done it with the hope that it will be on sky sports news.

Is that so they can hear the tumbleweed?

Pathetic.

Were there actually any at the Leeds game ?

When Crusaders came a couple of weeks ago one of their fans sat in front of me had a large plastic horn of some sort, fortunately he didn't use it very much. I can just about put up with drums and the odd trumpet, but air horns, plastic horns and those noisy things people blow at the Grand Final do my head in.

Harlequins fans or horns?

They should be saying bring any musical instrument to create some atmosphere at the stoop

Jesus wept....I get barracked for speaking my mind about the crowds or lack of them at the stoop and you go and tee this one up for the flat earth society



If this was an attempt at publicity then it shows the club haven't learnt from past attempts......England beating Australia in the ODI and the FIFA Cup game with England needing to win will be the dominant headline makers in the next 24hrs....
No mention of it on the BBC site as yet, nor the SkySports website either.......and let's face it....it's hardly up there with VAT at 20%.

Admiral......there were one or two.......either that or one of the Quins fans had brought their dying donkey into the ground to make the numbers up......

This is a non story.

To have Vuvuzelas being blown in the crowd.... you actually have to have a crowd to blow them

Thank fück someone's banned them.

It's like every game's been played in an apiary.

I keep looking around for something to swat

An apathethic goose, perhaps?

There is a case for banning them in this country under Health and safety laws.
If the players or staff are subjected to noise levels in excess of 80dbs, then the company must perform a risk assessment, and the liklihood is that a ban would be the control measure.

Saying that, not much danger of that at quins!

Why are the VuVu's in London less than 80 Decibels?

haha, i dont know to be honest mate, but the issue they could hide behind was hearing damage to stewards and maybe players.

If you want to be really boring like me, check out the noise regulations on the HSE website.

Depends how loud they are, there is a calculation that can be done once there is a noise measure, but to be honest, if they tried to use it as en excuse, and it was proven, expect the premier league and the rest to follow should the HSE get wind of it.

I doubt that there would be enough noise though, maybe in a 30 000 packed stadium, with 3000 of them at the stoop its no more than what it seems like, a cheap publicity stunt.

Jesus, im boring myself now.......... ill shut up

I think you probably caught onto it in your last sentence
