Watching these cringeworthy scenes at Carrow Road. If we ever try to introduce them at VP I think I'd walk out. They're bloody awful.
-
The flags are about as far as I can go - these look bloody awful!
-
I've only ever seen them at Fulham before. They're ridiculous. I genuinely can't understand why anyone thinks they're a good idea or what's wrong with just clapping. With your hands.
-
Knowing the kind of people that are involved in football clubs now, I'm sure there were plenty who saw them and thought they were a great idea.
-
I thought the same they sound horrendous, then they go and round it off playing music after they score.....dreadful.
-
Didn't small heath used to give them out so they could all clap along to that ELO tune they played before the teams came out?

Yes. Bunch of fucking tools.
-
I was wondering what they were whilst I was watching MOTD this morning. They did look ridiculous.
-
I remember going to Southampton when they were new to St Mary's - they hadn't started well and were saying that the atmosphere wasn't as good as the Dell.
They gave their fans those clapper things that night.....and we won 3-1!
-
Didn't do the team any harm yesterday did it?
I did chuckle at this comment on The Pink Un, however
The clappers just reinforce what other fans think that Norwich fans are all inbred.
-
Small Heath had them at one time when they were in the Premier League. The Brady Bunch saw them in use at Fulham and replicated it for the next home game.
They weren't very popular though, they had BCFC written where SOTV should've been.
-
I like normal hand clapping,
especially when the attendance is announced, I love it when everyone claps that

There's a joke in here somewhere about Brady giving thousands of people the clap...
-
And others a helping hand.

Me too. I also like to shake the hands of those around me.

You'd have had a job today. By the time they announced the attendance there were about 300 home fans left!

There was an exodus from the Holte when their 3rd goal went in, most likely people deciding they needed to secure half time alcohol.
-
Yep, if you'd have switched the TV on with 5 mins to go you could've been forgiven for thinking we had to play this match behind closed doors!
-
I hate those clapper things too, and Narwwwich fans look like they are fanning themselves when they use them.
-
I dont know what a clapper is. And am happy to leave it that way.
-
I don't see much difference between a clapper and a rattle (which I never owned, but was always desirous of). Disappeared circa 1969.

I think Small Heath were the first to introduce these little monstrosities.

According to Nev on the previous page it was Fulham.

If Small Heath have such wonderful passionate support why on earth do they continue with gimmicks like this?
It's almost like they're lying to us....
-
You old cynic. We all know they have more fans than us.

Sunday was the second time this season that the pre-half time exodus was so marked that I left on the stroke of half time and walked straight to the bar because everyone had already been served!
