    We have started to pick up a little, but I reckon we will LOSE at Newport.

    Ground Ratings (a tale of two parades)

    Lysaght's bought a disused ironworks in Wolverhampton and later transferred people and machinery to Newport. The works football team was the foundation of Newport County. Later on, Lysaght's opened its first steelworks at Scunthorpe and Scunthorpe steel was shipped to the rolling mills in...

    Ground Ratings (a tale of two parades)

However, we do own it 100% with the surrounding land. I'm an Old Show Ground supporter and never got use to playing at Glanford Park or...

    Iron Vs Bantams

    We showed some effort and fight and probably deserved a point. In the first half Vaughan and Donaldson should have scored, particularly the latter. His headed miss was spectacular. Ward could have scored a second for us, but chances were few. Lund's challenge was ridiculous and a definite red...

    Scunthorpe v Carlisle (the cricketers who played football derby)

    Poor game between two poor sides. Thought we deserved something from the game, but no points again.

    We don't have anyone who can score. Our top scorer is a CB, who only just gets a game as a defender.
