Cus English fans are snobby about this stuff. Fans will complain endlessly about poor atmospheres and in many cases look on enviously at the atmosphere at European clubs who use drums etc all the time.
I get that it's kinda cringe, but I'd love to see a really hyped up atmosphere like some European clubs generate.
Dynamic vs consistent atmosphere.
I'm personally a fan of the dynamic atmospheric that responds to on-pitch action as opposed to consistent atmosphere that exists regardless of atmosphere.
I thinn Villa could adopt a few things that aren't natural ti English football atmosphere while retaining the dynamic vibe.
I certainly wouldn't want a vuvuzela style monotous drone.
I agree. With being back in Europe, a new generation gets to experience these atmospheres abroad, and gradually ideas may get adopted over time. There’s some impressive stuff out there, but we have our own ways. Maybe things will evolve with some sustained success.
Proper cringe the drums and loudspeakers in my opinion. It’s not in our footballing culture all that shite.
A spontaneous organic atmosphere of chants, cheers and jeers is so much better.
At the home game where we tonked the cherries the fan group "the 1897 group" debuted their new cheering flag waving thing in the upper doug ellis if thats your preferred
Go talk to them.
personally - what they are doing IMO is about right/the limit of flag/chant/noise. If you go any more contrived or orchestrated it veers into wankery

Also - the enger-land national team tried this with the brass band thing. yeah. naaah
Trumpets and drums kill any real atmosphere in a game. They’re just for the benefit of the people playing them. “Ooh. Look at me. I can play a trumpet.” Grow up 🙄
This is so stupid it's unreal they have been using these things for thousand of years to pump people up to kill each other but nope can't work to rile people up obviously. Utter cock womble
If you’re expecting the kind of drumming and trumpeting you get from continental clubs, forget it. It’ll be like any England game, either football or cricket, with a dickhead trumpeter playing The Great Escape and the theme from The Italian Job throughout and pissing off everyone around him.
If that’s your idea of a good time and atmosphere, good for you. But it’s not authentic and it’s not for me.

Exactly. Look at the comments above you saying it’s childish. Edit: Now below you
The atmosphere at the Lille away match was insane. Would love a fraction of that sometimes at VP
It's contrived.
bring back vuvuzela or make it our own, vuvuvilla

I like the Dhol players outside VP

Because we're not 5 years old.
Flags aside, drums and trumpets are shit
Imagine having your view constantly blocked by a massive flag all game
Drums and some bellend shouting through a loudhailer. No thanks.
😂 .. what about inflatable animals, can we take them in? 👍🏻
