...Yes, it is.

You're the only one that seems to be sticking up for them (apart from Billy Shears, but he's a cunt and is obviously just going against the popular opinion for "comedic affect").

Ah well. I guess you'll just have to hope they get banned then. I just don't have a problem with them, the noise they make, the affect it has on the precious commentators. If more players come out and complain about them then fair enough. But their concerns seem to be with the ball.

the constant drone is probably the reason the top supported side in south africa , kieser chiefs only average 21000.

Well, work is going quite slowly. I must admit. But I genuinely don't find them annoying.

I'm baffled as to why people can't accept that some people don't find them annoying. Is this a place where an alternative viewpoint won't be tolerated? Well you can fuck that right off. Personally I don't get why there's such a fuss about them - but I respect that many people are annoyed by them. I just phase them out and concentrate on the game & the commentary (oh, and the close-ups of the totty in the crowd).

Very happy that I'm not so easily irritated.

i dont think it has anything to do with not accepting an opposite view point.(on other topics over the years i think that has definately been the case)

benny just keeps on and on about it.

I've sort of got used to the noise now  Huh?

I might buy one (maybe the South Oxon Reds could get a few going at the back of the DRS next season?)

Oh great, these bloody things already seem to have robbed the world cup grounds of atmosphere, anyone actually heard a decent chant or song yet? Not even the England fans. All we can hear is this bloody sound, why aren't people at the ground watching the football? Yes, i know, moan, groan, miserable old sod etc etc, but, it is the world cup and the only thing that is, so far worse than the bloody Vuvuzela's (forget Rob greens error for a second) has been the total lack of enthusiasm from any of the TV commentators.

Ban the Vuvuzela, lets hear the fans sining, the korean drums and, even, God help me, the England band.

Phew, not a bad rant for a Sunday morning

Oh I accept that there are some people who they don't annoy. They're the ones suggesting we embrace the 'culture' though, so of course they're going to get a bit of stick

Yup fair enough arriba/si pie - I just thought he was getting a lot of stick just because he felt differently to the majority, but I suppose he was also firing from both barrels.

The thought of having a blast on one in the Arkells next season (the section above the prawn-sandwich block that stinks of piss) makes me smile - that'd wake a few of the miserable old fuckers up..........or finish some of them off possibly.

Frankly I find ITV's shit commentary and punditry team far more distracting that the horns.

That is a great point

I haven't caught much of it as I try my best to miss it. But from what I've seen so far it seems pretty much the same as MOTD2 which is typical of ITV - totally devoid of originality, just nick a presenter and copy the format.

I'll have to take your word for that (though not surprised), my tv's virtually on mute because of the fucking horns. Even with messing about with the various settings on my AV Receiver and I can't filter out the fucking things.
