Please tell me this isn't true?

There is no need for it. The atmosphere at home games has been superb in recent games. This is EMBARRASSING.

STAR, you really need to sort yourselves out!

That's what the STAR newsletter said. I'll find the exact text in a mo.

STAR
Thank you to all those volunteers that have agreed to help with the Player of the Season forms at the Leeds match on Friday. For the Nottingham and Crystal Palace games RFC are producing 'Clappers' and need volunteers to help hand them out before both games? If you can spare some time before either match please let us know at info@star-reading.org

Things like this make us a laughing stock!

We don't need them. The atmosphere has been superb home and away. Fans react to what is on the pitch! So why do this?

I hope neither Forest or Palace is on the telly.

Everytime a team does this it ends badly. Us vs Birmingham, Cardiff vs us in the playoffs, and, er, there are lots of others :|

Are we talking about the stupid card clappers?

We've had these before. It was a massive failure iirc.

STAR tackling the real issues as always!

Do they actually ask for fans opinions or just do what the hell they want.

FWIW the scarf twirling before the game was embarrassing :roll:

I wasn't fussed either way about the scarves, but who is it exactly who thinks these stupid clapper things will improve the atmosphere?

I mean, seriously, who at STAR sat down at thought what we really need is some crappy gimmicky bit of nonsense that's been shown to be a total failure once already?

Not STAR - the club. STAR are just helping distribute them.

Thing is for every one person on here who moans about a gimmick like this then 10 people like it, scarves today being an obvious example!
