jags365 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 (edited) I think I'm the only person I know that doesn't actually mind it. At least it makes it harder to hear the frankly awful commentating. Edited for random comma. Edited June 12, 2010 by jags365 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.D Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Here's an idea - get some of them in the commentator's boxes to drown out their constant references to players of every team having connections with English clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Argus Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Awful, nearly as awful as that bloody drumer Livingston used to bring. In fact I'm sure the British Army used them as 'white noise' in NI in the 70's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graham Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 You knew it would come up, talk of them getting banned. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2010/8737455.stm I heard that interview and, in fairness, I think the guy was being diplomatic in response to the question when really he should have told the interviewer to piss off. The World Cup's being held in South Africa, and that's the way that the South Africans choose to generate an atmosphere, so good luck to them. Can't deny that it's an annoying racket, but for us to seek to impose what we regard as "proper" football supporting behaviour in preference to their's smacks of colonialism.

Watson Towers Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 I really like the vuvuzelas. I'm with our old pal Sepp Blatter: "Vuvuzelas, drums and singing are part of African football culture. It is part of their celebration, it is part of their culture, so let them blow the vuvuzelas." It's Africa's World Cup; go for it ya crazy crowd of mentalists. It's really annoying all those tosser commentators, which is good, and just about drowned out the Engerland fans, which is splendid.

alx Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Good thread, it's been doing my head in. It's a waste of time as well, as I can't see it intimidating the opposition much (like our nutters do at Hampden). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a cheap piece of plastic made in China that wasn't even used in South Africa 10 years ago be part of the South African "culture"? It's just f***ing annoying, that's what it is...

231071 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) I am really p'ed off. I send my £2 a month to feed a starving African child and all he does is go and blow it on an F'ing trumpet!!! As for these things being part of African culture, was it not the Aztecs or Myans who used to kick a dead mans head around as a crude form of football. Going by Sepp Bladdered's argument then that should be acceptable too. Edited June 16, 2010 by 231071 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig-W Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 LOL maybe that gubbing will quieten down the horrible noise of these things. Who wants to listen to crowds singing, reacting to the action on the pitch, BUILDING AN EFFING ATMOSPHERE when we can just have a constant irritating drone for ninety minutes? This tournament has been dire so far and these ersetrumpets are only contributing to the butthurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
