For the first 30 minutes the Paddock was loud but then fizzled out

Well done the paddock

When I started watching Town the paddock was where all the singing came from, when did the 'singing' move to the PRE? I went to uni in 2000 so drifted away from WR so wasn't around when the singing dynamic changed.

In 2000 I would say, first season in the league and more so when it was given a roof.

I haven't heard the Paddock for over 25 years. Very poor vocal support.

I presume all the vocal lot from the paddock have taken a more restrained approach to their support.

It was a joy to hear the tractor song sung at the correct speed
Would certainly agree with that GGTTH!

Some idiots try to sing The Tractor Song faster and faster until it becomes an incoherent meaningless gabble!
Almost sounds as if they want to get it over as quickly as possible!

Shame I didn't hear it on the other side of the ground. With a bit of luck this won't be a one off and da yoof of today will learn and understand its true appeal when sung at the correct speed.

I was accosted by one of the old boys from the Paddock, who wanted to make sure that one thing was known: http://bit.ly/CTFCpaddock" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The fight against newport!! I didn't hear any singing from the Paddock on Saturday, (I don't think the sound travels to the side of the PRE) did they sing the Windmill in Old Amsterdam? Or a personal favorite of mine the 'Gloucester Dur' song
