I notice Huddersfield have got them now along with Southampton yesterday and originally at Leicester.
Fulham in the championship also
WTF has happened to these clubs when they've got to use clappers as a way of generating noise/atmosphere.
Stoke City don't even think about it

We tried it 2 or 3 times in past, probably when the Icelanders were in charge. Thankfully they all ended up on the floor.

Semi-expected this thread to be about people who insist on clapping unnecessarily during songs, a habit that has unfortunately infected our support.
There's now clapping during the main body of "we'll be with you" and it's really sad because, more than Delilah, that's our song and could be sung on a continuous loop. Unfortunately the clapping just kills it dead and fucks it up completely. It exasperates me that people haven't got the self-awareness to realise this.
Clapping during songs is akin to weeds in a flower bed, sucking life from the main plants and making their beauty less potent.

Right up there with playing music after a goal. As small time as you can get.

It's a horrible noise and is just pure lazy. It isn't hard clapping your hands is it?

Don't forget the basket weaving and the balsa wood airplanes. Imagine junior schools letting the kids use Stanley knives now.
They were just better days.
I loved tech drag, sword fencing with a t square like we were the three musketeers.

I do remember the illegal high we got sitting in the corner smelling a jar of cellulose. How we didn't have permanent brain damage is a miracle |

I would rather clappers than a drum mind.
A drum is so fucking small time it's unbelievable.
I use the holmesdale fanatics as an example the sad cunts think they are Italian ultras ffs.

I think paper clappers aren't a bad idea if it's cold and everyone is wearing gloves. Gloves really mute hand clapping.
The most cringeworthy was Leicester putting Jamie Vardy masks on every seat for his suspended game last season.

Do you like drums haha The best use of a drum in a football ground is when worn round the neck of the knob that took it into the ground in the first place. The drummer from the Honeycombes was a belter pity I've forgotten her name though. |

Not sure about a drum but they were incredible. Never stopped singing. No drink Just pure passion. I know they brought flares though. |

The clapping to songs in the 60's & 70's created a good vibe, such as the clap x 9 then "CITY!" - which was even better when accompanied by a air horn. There were also a couple of "instrumental"! clapping tunes. Anyone remember them? Don't hear them nowadays. |

Not to mention that bloody drum I'll see your drums and raise you the Atlanta Braves war chant and tomahawk chop. They literally do it for the whole damn game. You have to watch with the sound off when your team plays them in Atlanta. |
