The best general sustained atmosphere (ie not just after a goal but during a whole game) I have heard at any away game in the past 5 years was Palace away in April 2014. I don't like the place, and I have no soft spot for them whatsoever, but based on attending away games and listening to radio commentary of matches they are one of the few Premier league teams with good vocal support at home. You can argue that the Holmesdale support is manufactured, but it definitely creates an atmosphere.
Since when did supporting your team mean you turn yourself into a rather shit Cozy Powell wannabe.
Palace, Palace!That's the way we like it, like it, like it!"I quite like that one

However, this thread, the thread we had on the subject before and the rections of people I've spoken to and sat near, seem to suggest that the majority of fans don't like it. You're, effectively, forcing the drum on fans and ignoring others' opinions.Why not respect the wishes of the majority, ditch the drum, and continue contributing to the atmosphere in positive ways?
I think it's a good thing.

I personally think it adds to the atmosphere, it keeps the rhythm ticking over, stops people from going too fast with songs and them burning out and keeps songs going longer. L8 last seaosn was definitely louder following the addition of the drum. As long as it contributes to the atmosphere in a positive way then I think it's a good thing.
