Dutch Clappers

I think these worked pretty well.

I was in my seat pretty early and when the squad came out to warm-up there were about 4,000 people in the ground - they made quite a noise! Ok, so there were blocks of kids in the NW corner, but still, I think they can be judged a success.

Now, the big question is whether or not we continue to produce them. Surely it'll only cost a few thousand quid to knock-out 15,000 of the things - or NOTHING if they're sponsored again. This is probably a pretty good direct marketing opportunity. After all, you get your message in 15,000 peoples' hands for anything up to 2 hours, in which time they'll read it several times. How often do you just discard junk mail/magazine inserts without even registering what it's for?

We can have a different inspirational message from Pards each week! ;o)

    Not really my cup of tea especially as I had Darren Bent's family behind me whacking the S*** out of those things all game (but I'm not going to complain about anything that Darren or his family do right now).

    The marketing people already got these ones sponsored and I wouldn't be surprised to see something similar soon.

    Flag was great too, shame you couldn't get it over the South Stand- especially as we had 2/3 of it.

    couldn't stand them, sounded like an England Schoolboys international until the singing drowned them out thankfully !
  • RiscardoRiscardo
    Made me laugh how many people put them neatly away in their bags, probably to sell on ebay. Give 'em to the kids I say ...
  • SolidgoneSolidgone
    Cammie on Sky Sports loved em! although, I'm not sure whether that was an April fool too.

    No, I sit in the last row but one at the back of the East Stand and he has the box behind us. He was in there himself when he was injured.

    I saw him giving the shirt away but not sure who to.

    We spent all game whacking one on each others chest in time to the songs, was a laugh I thought although more for the kids than the grown ups.
  • razilrazil

    ;)
  • KetmanKetman
    Err even at 37 I suppose I would still have to class myself as the former :-)
  • razilrazil

    Clappers themselves a great idea - no need for the big screen to tell us to 'Make some noise'. Now that annoyed me!
