I vote yes, people say only shit clubs with shit atmosphere have a drum but that's just not true, look at Celtic for prime example!

A Boro fan was quoted as saying that it really does take a lot of work as the drummer to make fans aware of which song is coming next by alteration of the rhythm and then everyone knows what to sing when. You can't just turn up and start banging it and hope it works.
Tonight is not the time to start randomly trying it out but I'd welcome it if it makes a difference.

It thought they'd been shot by the FA hierarchy and I certainly didn't here their fair on Friday but then with what else was going on on the pitch maybe I blocked it out.
Quite frankly what with them and the light show it probably resembled something more like a Jean Michele Jarre or Pink Floyd concert and my brain just got confused.
This in buckets!
What do you care? You won't be there to hear it.

I hope this happens, just hope the drummer is not a complete din, and bangs it sympathetically, it will either make or break the atmosphere.
If he drums to compliment the singing it will work, if he try's to create a false atmosphere it will fall flat on its face, whoever it is let's hope he's a talented drummer !

I think it is more the other way around, the drummer can help pace the chant after it starts. For example, great escape will obviously be sung tonight, as per usual this will get faster and faster until it falls apart. The drummer can hopefully keep a pace with it to stop Albion fans doing the 400mph thing which I really can't get my head around btw.
Celtic- plastic.
Boca Juniors- plastic.
Dortmund- plastic.
Galatassary- plastic.
Only plastic clubs use drums, not real clubs with deafening, intimidating atmosphere's like Brighton & Hove Albion.
From a Boro perspective, red fraction started as a group in the south east corner. From less than 50 lads, making up there own songs and building over the last 5 years. It didnt happen over night, I doubt they could of just tipped up with a drum, for about the first 3 years they didn't have a drum. Now it has grown to a whole stand but that has taken around long time to achieve this. A lot of hard work and effort. Not just tippin up with a drum and expecting a atmosphere we created against you.
Good luck tonight

Except what will actually happen is different groups in the North will start singing their own songs, and everyone else will get faster and faster anyway, regardless of the drum, resulting in one big mish-mash of white noise.

I would like to know where those against it sit at the amex ? i'm getting a mental picture of a group of anti drum campaigners all wearing the same brown jumpers and red cords tucked away in the east upper with a not really offensive banner saying down with this sort of din .
