Stoke City would welcome vuvuzelas at the Brit this season.

Stoke chief executive Tony Scholes said he doubted the craze will catch on in the Potteries.

He told The Sentinel: "The vuvuzela is the sound of Africa, for this World Cup, just as we have seen ticker-tape receptions in Argentina and Mexican waves at other tournaments. in the past.

"These catch on for a while, but supporters generally go back to more traditional ways of showing their support, so we don't expect the vuvuzela to become a big thing.

"I don't think many fans would appreciate having someone sat behind them constantly blowing one of these horns.

"Besides, our supporters make enough noise without using instruments."
