I recently visited an Inter Millan match and they too have a drum. Let me say this, the atomsphere was amazing. Italians like the English are passionate and love football, but time to time can be reluctant to sing if loosing. When the drummer starting doing his stuff and everyone started singing "forza inter" it lifted the team and they won.
For you sceptics who say drums are a bad thing has anyone noticed who has won serie A for the last three years.
For god sake we have some misserable farts who support oldham don't we
