Drummer Boy : Tue Jul 03, 2012 9:42 pm  

It seems the little drummer boy and his dad are claiming they were abused at the swinton game, I was sat two rows behind him and i never saw anyone do that. comments welcome.!!

I was sat behind the drummer and heard at least two locals suggest he relocate his drum, it would not have been very comfortable!!

Some of the crowd asked why he wasn't drumming when it was quite, and then complained when he did!

No pleasing some people

to the person from swinton, it was me and my son who your comments were aimed at and yes we did complain - some of the comments were a little unpleasent and should not be aimed at a 15year. my comment is if you dont like it then move . if you sat 2 rows behind and never saw it well you must have been at another game !!!!

If you didn't say anything you've got nothing to worry about have you sunshine?

I heard a couple of distasteful comments, one homophobic which I thought someone might pick up on, good on em if they've reported it.

Surely if you see somebody stood there with a drum, it should be blatantly obvious that it's going to be banged on immenently. I would also imagine that's it's been approved entry by the stewards as a drum is difficult to conceal.

Despite this you still get the flat earth society bemoaning it because why should they move because i've been sat in this seat since 1649 etc etc. Saddos.

I probably dislike drums more than i like drums but there's no need to abuse someone for it,Just move,It's not as you've been at that ground since 1649,Youve only had half a dozen or so games there,Surely moving seat isn't such a crime.

There were plenty to choose from, even with half a stand open.

I must admit I am not a fan of any instruments at grounds - especially Kazoos.

I was sat forward of the drum and it wasn't wasn't banged all the game and the noise was often drowned out by "gerrum onside Hewer" - which did seem to be all game.

Well said.

Not that WAS tiresome.
