What do they get out of lying about the attendance apart from more tax to pay?
That's not how tax works.
You’ll pay VAT on each ticket sold. If they announce the attendance at 1,200 but only declare 800 they’ll soon be found out

No you won't. You pay VAT due on the amount of declared VAT-able income.
Don't let the old man in.

I was surprised at the attendance. Would have said 750-800 tops.

I don't think HMRC cross reference ticket revenue against the attendance announced on twitter...

If they did a VAT inspection they would or at least cross reference To the official attendance and the supporting records showing how the declared income was arrived at based on who attended
Some people really do need to think a bit more before they post things on here

Bradford away, Mansfield away and now Fleetwood at home raise the question of why do the owners of these drums never sound as if they made it to the end of Chapter One of Galley Slave Drum Beating for Dummies?
One of the young lads who attends fixtures is planning to bring one. His dad is a drummer - so he'll have been taught a few tricks ;)
Should add a bit of spice and atmosphere to our home homes :D

And why not. We might as well be as tinpot as the others who can't create an atmosphere without the need for a drum. Old style supporters with strong voices and locally composed songs have gone now.
The HS end have made an attempt of late but yes, drown them out with a drum. Should sound good.

I would rather hear a drum than that awful racket some of the children on the Holker St end make during the opposition keepers goal kicks.

I was surprised to hear it too. Haven't heard it anywhere for years. It is definitely "old hat". Must make us look like we are set in the dark ages to the opposing fans.
Football has moved on. 😂
PS rattles are making a comeback so are allowed. 🙂

Last two trips I've made - Accrington and Bradford, both sets of home supporters had a drum. I think it might have something to do with a post-lockdown obsession with needing to make noise. Must admit the first time I heard it my initial thought was "how very 70s" but it would seem as if the art of tub thumping is alive and well in the EFL.

My other thought was that if anybody tries to bring a large bass drum into Old Trafford, Anfield or Stamford Bridge these days the article would be x-rayed, locked away and the carrier intimately body searched.
