Ive sat in the home end the last few games and have seen no drum, or trumpet yet. My friend tried to take a vuvuzela (those south african trumpets) in to the stadium and they confiscated it till after the game.

I'm a little disappointed that there probably won't be any "entirely legal" streams of the match anywhere. It's a shame they couldn't even get it on TV down there, but have a good day out!

The thing with this firendly is that the local government (who are in a shiteload of debt) are organising the event. The own the stadium, so they pay AUD500,000 to both Celtic and the Roar in appearance fees, and keep all the takings. The charged about a 60% escess on what a normal league ticket cost, and no local stations could meet their price for the game, dropping the crowd from a max of 52,000 to an expected 32,000. Wankers Just like to clear up a couple of things. Scott McDonald is not a Brisbane local, he is from Melbourne, which is like London to Manchester, or Valencia to Madrid in terms of their difference. Also the Roar as a club go to great efforts to help get musical instruments into the stadium, and I beleive the home end has a drum, couple of megaphones and a trumpet (or at least they did). See you on Sunday, I am so freaking pumped. Is the game being televised in the UK or US, because, very ashamedly, the game has not been picked up by Australian media.
