Please can we have a poll about whether or not having a poll is a good idea?

I think every cas fan should have one of those little horns that we used to have on our push bikes. The one that you squeezed at the end. Imagine the bedlam when they were all squeezed at the same time.(lol) Bring it on

the sky tv matches at headingly are dreadful with that horrible band that drowns out the sky commentary & the cow bell at Huddersfield is nearly as bad.
after the soccer world cup in south Africa the vuvuzelas were band in football grounds & the rugby league should look into the way our game is portrayed as anyone new tuning into a game at headingly would soon get sick of hearing the idiots with the trumpets etc & how anyone can stand near them beats me. as for helping the team you had better ask the whino's so its no drum / musical instruments for grump old me!!!!! :roll:

Genuinely don't care. Now a cowbell or a full orchestra like some clubs have, that's too far.

I think it has to be something that is relevant, it’s no good contriving something just for the sake of it. Season tickets and the drum are two hot topics at the moment, so I think suit a poll. As I say, I think it gives people who want to express the opinion, but not make written posts, the chance to be heard in some way, whilst still allowing those who want to contribute more to do so.
One thing I’d be interested in polling, and it will be controversial. Is it time we went smoke/vape free within the whole ground? Reckon if you put that on Nottingham you’d get a massive response.

Keep the Vapers, they are something to laugh at during stoppages

Firstly, the drum was requested at home games by the directors.

And its either we use the drum or have to bang on the asbestos at the back to create atmosphere. So which is the safest thing to do?

It's funny really... Because we cant move for being squashed like sardines because of the amount of fans that want to be around the drum, to the point we have a few step ladders at the back now just to be able to see the game.

If we take the drum out, then where does the atmosphere come from, this is one lad bringing his drum off his own back to create the best atmosphere in the league in my opinion.

Hope the back of the stand isn't asbestos.
That would be a worry.

I think discussion of the game will be enough for tonight.

Asbestos? Surely not, doesn’t make sense with the metal stand or current regs. There’s no way the ground would pass a H&S inspection if there was unsafe asbestos!
As to where the atmosphere would come from - the same place it has for decades before someone starting bringing a drum. I actually think the atmosphere has been worse with the drum, but that’s just my opinion and I know it’s dependent on a lot of different factors.

But wasn’t there an atmosphere before the drum? I seem to remember one.

You take away the drum and the lads at the back of the WRE and the atmosphere is absolutely dire

Used to be a great time in the WRE but the energy and atmosphere seems to have died a death
