I have had the misfortune to have attended Meadow lane,it was marginally better than peterborough v stockport,but only really to be recommended to masochists.
folk exists,on several different levels,it exists at folk clubs and festivals,it also exist sat football grounds and rugby grounds and possibly cricket matches,but with the greatest respect,no one would pay to hear Martin Carthy singing the wheelbarrow song at a folk venue.
they might pay to hear someone sing it at a football club,I believe Richard Grainger ,was commissioned to sing and write a song for middlesborough football club,which he sang in front of 30 thousand people,but the point is that the musical creativity of football folkies,seems on the whole pretty limited to one minute wonders,and that their efforts do not stand up to being sung anywhere apart from football clubs.
