In order to help STAR get some idea of the feeling behind "clappers" for the final two games of the season - please vote accordingly - as we're a diverse cross section of fans and would help give them an indication of the feeling behind this idea. Cheers then.

at first i thought the scarf idea was a bit 'gay' but actually was alright and im all for it.......also, simply the holding up of scarves is a good idea too....in fact i thought thats what the sea of scarves thing was about

Why should the 'embarrassed' minority of HNA dictate to the mass of fans who do want to get a freebie?

Not bothered either way. There's much more important things at stake.

I should expect those who want to use them will take them home to use for future games.

NO!!

We don't need them. When the team performs as it is then the fans react.

If we were struggling and the atmosphere was flat then sure, I can understand it - although still 100% against gimics like this!

NO THANK YOU!!

Who are you to say the 'embarrassed minority of HNA' are not wholly representative of the majority of Readings fans?

They won't be back if we blow promotion for a good while.

Unfortunately HNA is 2% of the fan base at the Madejski Stadium and the majority of that will want to twirl a scarf, clap a clapper or dance to Tom Harks if told to.

I'm sure that's far more than the members STAR asked.

Well, less than 24 hours into the poll, it's pretty conclusive what the HNA voters think. As this is but a snapshot of RFC fans everywhere, I'd say it was more helpful to STAR than STAR not bothering to ask anyone at all and thus just letting the club do it, with their help.

I have no doubt that a number of fans (mainly kids) will use this clapper things - but that's not to say that a lot of people think they're rubbish. They could have had some bins placed around the outside of the ground with them in and if you want one, you take one.

No, although I couldn't really care less if they do have them

Also, HNA isn't representative of Reading fans as a whole, as repeatedly proven, so a poll here is pretty irrelevant
