    The Club Will Regret this. Having enough trouble selling season tickets without this. I know plenty who will never set foot inside any ground that these things are allowed in. Now I'm all for the club raising money but 1 person sues us for damaged hearing (and they will) and it'll cost the club more than a 1 year loan deal for Bullard!!!

    Ohhhhhhh no. At a South African World Cup it was part of the atmosphere. It's going to be a bit strange hearing them at Parkhead :/

    they damage your ears, give you a sore head and have the adverse effect to why they were designed, they ruin the atmosphere!!

    I can't help but think this was another way for the board to get money out of the fans by getting them to buy these things, then about 2 days before the season starts they ban them.

    Can't believe so many people are getting wound up about this, you honestly think we were going to see them on same scale as the world cup? Watching the Man U game the other night, I think I heard one or two being blown a handful of times throughout, pretty sure that's the sort of thing we'd see at parkhead, certainly not the constant deafening drone for whole games like in Africa.

    Seven Premier League football clubs have told fans not to bring vuvuzelas to their games when the new season gets under way next month.

    <!-- VIDEO PLAYER START --> <!---->

    The controversial horns provided the soundtrack to this summer's World Cup in South Africa - but they will not be welcome in north London.
    Tottenham Hotspur were first to post a message on their website confirming the ban, at the club's White Hart Lane stadium.
    It read: "We are concerned that the presence of the instruments within the stadium pose unnecessary risks and could impact on the ability of all supporters to hear any emergency safety announcements.
    <cut></cut>
    <!---->
    They make a horrible racket and I'm delighted Spurs have taken this stance.
    <cite> Spurs fan backs vuvuzela ban </cite>
    <!---->
    "We are very proud of the fantastic atmosphere that our supporters produce organically at White Hart Lane and we are all very much looking forward to this continuing into the forthcoming season."
    Within hours of Spurs announcing their intention to ban the vuvuzela, their north London rivals followed suit.
    A statement on Arsenal.com read: "Further to their hugely debated involvement at this summer’s World Cup Finals in South Africa, Arsenal Football Club has decided to forbid the use of vuvuzelas within Emirates Stadium with immediate effect.
    "The decision has been taken to ensure the enjoyment and safety of supporters on match days, which is of paramount importance to the club."
    The Premier League has so far refused to implement a widespread ban on the horns, leaving it up to individual clubs to decide for themselves.
    Sky News contacted all 20 Premier League clubs about their stance on vuvuzelas.
    Birmingham City, Everton, Fulham, Liverpool and West Ham United ansdsaid they have also banned the horns.
    Eight clubs - Blackburn Rovers, Bolton Wanderers, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Stoke City, West Bromwich Albion, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Wigan Athletic and Aston Villa - were undecided.
    But Blackpool, Chelsea and Manchester City - while not wanting to encourage fans to use vuvuzelas at their grounds - said they have no plans to ban them.
    If the feedback outside White Hart Lane is anything to go by, fellow fans will quickly make known their views if anyone starts blowing the horns at matches.
    One fan said: "They make a horrible racket and I'm delighted Spurs have taken this stance.

    Celtic have really sold themself in this one. The main cause is not to get better atmosphere, the may want us to think that - the real cause is money. They think sell this to kids who watched the WC on the telly. It's a shame honestly, I fell sorry for season holders. But I reckon the hype will die and that the Vuvuzelas will die.

    I dont mind them to be honest. People rant against them but they didn't bother me at all during the WC. People making the most of nothing imo
