I remember someone turning up with a loudhaler at a Chorley game. He did get the crowd going but was told to shut by the announcer or he would be removed from the ground. He was very funny.

Yeah i remember that as i was there, i take it you also know who it was

Was it DB ?

Tony he is now a member of the BOM , but agree it was very funny .

I think it was P.C. agree it was funny

Peawaap I don't like saying you are wrong , but it WAS Mr DB .He once took a big Drum to Halifax , to get the Fans going .

There should be a band with drums and trumpets playing throughout the match. Lots of flags, twirling scarves and banners and fans doing the bouncy bouncy. The youngsters would love it and it would create a good atmosphere.

Most of these old codgers on here would much rather have an atmosphere akin to watching a game of dominoes. Knock knock.

WYSI my owd mate , hows ya doin ?They have Gymnasts on trampolines in Aussie 20- 20 cricket

you will will be wanting Pole Dancers next or performing Clowns



.

Plenty planned for the coming season WYSI and hope we can meet at some point and share a pint, it's good to have you back!

We were pretty keen to get a band or drum going to lift the atmosphere but it doesn't seem to be going down well from the feedback I've seen here and twitter etc so we will review this.

It is about the youngsters and engaging young people with the club but we do also have a duty to provide for and look after our older generation of loyal supporters also and will do this.

Give Parky Pig a drum and get him marching up and down in front of the stands. Works pretty well with the England mascot. Plus Parky seems to have a bit of a low profile at the moment, would like to see him used a bit more effectively.

I like it!

A band (even with a drum) could work if used correctly.

The problem with people with instruments at matches is they seem to feel they're not doing their job if they're not filling 95% of their time pumping out music. It can suffocate other sources of noise, like the fans voices.

I'm all for pole dancers, so long as they aren't from Wiggin. They would probably break the pole if they were!! :O)

Regarding performing clowns, I think there are enough candidates on here!! hahaha I'm sure you could lead them Charlie.

Andy, ignore the old codgers on here. Get them a bath chair, hot water bokkle and a tartan blanket and park them around the touch line, preferably in front of the South Stand. It's the children who you need to cater to, they are the next generation of supporters and when you get them young, you keep them for life.

Get a Mexican type band with lots of trumpets and a big bass drum. If you can't get a drum, Frank's head has very good acoustics seeing as there is nothing between his ears!! :O)

As someone else said, get Parky Pig back but with a band this time. The kids will love it.

I've never been away. My heart has LEIGH pumping through it!!! haha

i'm quite sure I will have a pint with you someday, probably when you are handing the club over to me when I come off benefits. So I don't mind you taking them into SL, but I plan to lead them to Challenge Cup glory again, if you don't mind :O)

Could hear that bloody drum from Wire today from 100 yards away. Once again, no thanks.

The atmosphere is abysmal at times. It's very rare you get all the fans singing, most fans prefer a church-like atmosphere. We need to create an atmosphere that will rally the players in what is a crucial season for us

Definately needs something to lift the atmosphere, whether it be a drum or Pey Lovells bugle!!!

as I have said on twitter ,if there must be a north stand band put them in the north stand of he pie dome.anyway why the north stand i think that if we end up having a band they should be in the central section of the west stand to wake the prawn sarnie brigade up...

It will be different when the games matter if the players play their part

If anyone turns up near me with a drum they better be wearing body armour. I will also be asking for a full refund of my season ticket if the club sanction it. I didn't buy one to be deafend.

The atmosphere is poor & I agree something definately needs doing as much to gear up the team as much as the crowd too. Parky with a drum sounds great to me to get the crowd going & keep the kids entertained.

Hope it does change come the Batley game, we need to be as loud and as vocal as possible!

I am sure it will if we start with Brierley fullback' Kay stand off' Riddy scum half and Govin or Foster at hooker.

HEY FRANK YOU SHOULD BE IN BED WITH AN HOT WATER BOTTLE.....IN YOUR STATE OF HEALTH THIS AFTERNOON

That a good call apart from the missing 'r'.
