Are rattles illegal now?

We should have someone at every game with a bell like Helen’s

City culture and all that

I think @Eccles Blue should take up the mantle!

@Psychedelic Casual Sorry I’m not much good with the bell now. I had my fill of bells when I was teaching! Great idea though.

@manclad no apology needed. I’m big, not fat though & definitely not a hooligan. :-)

I recall the West Midlands finest wading into the stand to take Helen's bell off her.... She put up a bit of a verbal fight but relented and handed the bell over....
A few minutes later from out of her bag she produced a mini bell that she "tinkled" to a big roar of approval from us Blues on the terrace.

I wouldn't want to be stood next to you with a fuckin' rattlesnake hissing at me; )

I should think that the way things are these days yer more likely to be able to take in a Western Diamondback than a rattle.

Thinking of taking my rattle to Bournmouth tomorrow but a friend of mine reckons they are now banned. Is this true?

Yes they are mate - my 5 month old baby was arrested in mothercare for possessing a rattle - in court in a couple of weeks - hoping it’s just going to be a fine and a warning

I used to take my rattle in the scoreboard end in the mid 60's, god help anyone stood near me when Derek Kevan scored.....:)

Hadn’t it seized up between goals?
