The England Band

[The Rolls Royce]

Anyone else hate them? Playing the same 2/3 songs for years now to try and create an atmosphere. Repetetive, annoying, doesn't actually enchance the atmosphere, and just tries to cover up the fact that Wembley has a shit crowd who don't drive the team on.

I think the worst part is the band actually gets given free tickets by the FA to play. Desperate.

didnt know that

If it wasn't for them there would be no atmosphere whatsoever!

Don't think they get free tickets either!

They dilute the atmosphere. It doesn't enchance it for me. I reckon without them the crowd might be aware of the silence and actually try to create a decent atmosphere themselves.

I can't stand them and unsure why we have them. It sounds shite.
Aren't they at Sheff Wed home games as well? I'm glad we don't have anything like that at the SoL.

stick their trumpets and drum sticks up their sad arses (sideways)

Think I made a slight mistake, the FA doesn't give them free tickets, but they actually have sponsors who fund their trips. The FA has fully offered its support.

Its the repetition that gets me, The Great escape is ringing in my ears after this match.
