Fans rejoice as World Cup organisers ban England band from stadiums in Brazil

FANS have been rejoicing after World Cup organisers banned the England Supporters' Band from stadiums next summer.

Fed-up England followers expressed delight at the news musical instruments won't be allowed into venues during the 2014 tournament.

World Cup managing director Ron Delmont confirmed: "Brazil doesn't need instruments to enhance what you are going to experience in the stadium."

The ear-bruising England Supporters' Band are a regular feature at Three Lions matches, despite many fans saying they don't enjoy their soundtrack.

Others have also claimed their presence ruins the atmosphere at games.

Comedian David Baddiel, who co-wrote Euro 96 classic 'Football's Coming Home', previously commented: "I tire of endless Rule Brittanias and Great Escapes."

And one fan today asked on Twitter: "Is there a more annoying noise than the England band?"

Another added: "Please god, someone make them stop."
