Arsenal boss Wenger no fan of vuvuzelas

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is no fan of the vuvuzela.

Wenger would like to see them banned at the World Cup.

"It kills one of the charms of football - the songs," Wenger told arsenal.com. "The vocal support disappears.

"Also I must say it is not very nice to sit through a game while a guy blows one of those in your ear. I find it uncomfortable. On television it might look amusing but when you are confronted with it on a daily basis - even at the airports - it is an absolute nightmare.

"I would sign a petition to get rid of them tomorrow. For me it's World Cup South Africa - yes, vuvuzela no."
