How would people feel about someone else taking up the role? I've got a drum from my days of following lower league football, (booo) but since I was converted to rugby league (20 years ago) its been sat in the garage, i've got a drum and my mate has his trumpet. would this annoy too many people?

| Quote ="Geordie"Thats me done, I know it has been said before but that was it, the last time I will be seen with a drum at the game.
Todays game saw the end of 10 seasons of me playing it and I know the time for me to move on is right. I am finding it a chore now and as they say when you no longer enjoy something its time to pack in.
I have had an absolute ball, met some wiered and wonderful people and sigining off today just iced it, instead of Lee Briers kissing his badge he was able to lift the Challenge cup instead.
Thanks for the comments, I am now going to quietly slip into the background though you will still no doubt here my dulset tones next season.
Cheers'" |

Blimey, there's a name from the past. He's been dead about 18 years! |

didn't bradford once create an "artificial" atmosphere by playing the sound of their crowd over the top of the real crowd through the PA in an attempt to intimidate brisbane/australia (someone) and ended up beating them? |

Not just once, in the late 80's / early 90's the chant of "Northern, Northern" could reguarly be heard over the Odsal tannoy system.
it was quite common in some grounds. IIRC Hull FC ended up in trouble because they'd recorded crowd chanting from their own fans and didn't realise one of the chants was a racist one aimed towards an opposing player. |

That would be great, IMO i think the drumming really inproves the atmosphere and without at points in the game there would be little atmosphere. i also think it makes it more entertaining with the drum.
Its a shame to hear you giving it up as well,
And to answer your question lowes out yes, you should bring your drum, and hope there will be more drums next season  |

| Quote ="Dropkick Murphy"Well said and I agree 100%.
The only thing that irritates me more than the drums is tedious music played after we score. Okay so Tom Hark had a bit of novelty value when we first started playing it around 1997ish but it's been long since time to move on and in my opinion just stop it completely.
If you want a REAL atmosphere then show some passion and sing your heart out. Clapping along like performing seals does not an atmosphere make.'"
Spot on sir, there lies a clued up individual.  |

If anyone else is planning to pick up the most annoying baton in Warrington then just stay as far away from the West Stand as possible please!
Staying as far away from the entire ground as possible would of course be preferable...

What atmosphere is this?
Who are you to tell people what to do? He has an opinion which also happens to be mine and that of the majority of sane people that know a decent atmosphere can be created without the help of a drum and / or cringeworthy music like 'Tom Hark'. |

I am a fan of the drum but only cause its at the opposite end of the south stand from me.
Don't think i'd enjoy standing close to it tbh

Love the drum, creates atmosphere, hope someone else will have a go, also could do with a trumpet or bugle too.
I thought it was missed at Wembly, two years ago was at Perpignan even though we lost the match the drummer got the crowd going.
Well done drummer you will be missed by me and my freinds.

| I really cant believe this thread...I mean its got more pages and interest than the farewell to Rauhihi and poor Steve Pickersgill hasn't even got a thread.
Yet here we are lamenting on some blokes decision not to bang a bloody drum again 
some would be in full mourning if the same bloke decided to bugger off back to the northeast to take up knitting. |
