FFS ... What next Richy? "Bloody fuzzy wuzzys, they're all
cannibals"!? It's part if their culture, it's their world cup. Deal
with it.
What's more acceptable to the world - a noise that is, admittedly,
annoying or The Sun reading, neanderthol, "disagree with me and I'll
twat you" yob singing "you're gonna get your fucking heads kicked in"?
That's why the world is fucked, America and the likes of us wandering
around the globe being all empirical saying "do it our way, or else"

I'll ignore the troll's hook blaming the whole continent, but
really, think
about it ... this is the World Cup, not the World Cup according to how
Europeans think it should be, but the first on the continent of
Africa.
The vuvuzelas are part and parcel of football (and music) in South
Africa.
Would you ban scarves at Leeds games because the draught they cause
when
waved above the head might give you a chill?

Personally I think it is bloody great (even if I have gone deaf Andy
C ;-) )

Because it's fucking annoying . All the things you mention below Brian
didn't fundamentally change the atmosphere at games I.e the crowd
were still
able to show their support and appreciation of their team. This is a
blanket
din that just monopolises the atmosphere , leading to no sense of
whose fans
are actually there - no brazilian drums , no weird chanting, no rule
Brittania no nothing just a load of bees buzzing. Let's face facts
this is
the idea of someone who doesn't understand football supporters. I
wouldn't
have expected anything else from the Africans .

so why should the vuvuzela be banned?

I see the African FA are thinking of banning the horns from the
grounds
after complaints from spectators and commentators. At last some common
sense.
