    Absolutely no problem with that. It wouldn’t be football if it didn’t would it! We would be exactly the same. Just felt Adam showed a bit of a lack of class really with his comments half hour or so after the game. If we edge a 2-1 home game this season, I would be disappointed if our fans came...

    Again, full of prejudice and stereotypes. You clearly know very little about the football we play and your ideas are rooted in misconceptions. Our midfield last season included Josh Sheehan and (up until January) Scott Twine, with Matty Dolan playing the ball out from the back. Hardly ‘physical...

    I think that’s a very fair assessment, Wouldn’t argue with too much of it. The 18 is Finn Azaz who is on loan from Villa and spent last season at Cheltenham. He’s actually a little bit lightweight but should do well. All the best for the season, I think you’ll be top three.

    A more balanced Mansfield reflection than that of Mr Stag.

    Don’t take too much notice of him. He is very anti-Newport and his summary bears absolutely no relation to the match stats. He tends to see Mansfield as football purists, gets frustrated that their financial muscle has yet to bring promotion and in the past has commented on County’s...

    Tin pot clubs in League Two

    We avenged that 13-0 defeat though in our final home game, with a 4-2 victory over Newcastle. Reading up on it, it was Len Shackleton who scored six in the first game, Jackie Milburn had to make do with just two! 13-0 remains the top victory in England’s top two divisions and Newcastle also...

    Welcome to the FL Sutton

    Got a feeling the Cup and Trophy ties at Gloucester were even closer together than that? Didn’t we have to borrow a goalkeeper from an obscure team for the FA Cup match due to injury?

    Only once had a gate of less than 1000 for a League game, 988 v Peterborough April 1988. Lowest apart from that 1009, last game of 1969-70 season

    So, who is in league 2 for 21/22

    Fortunately he only lasted half a season or so. We used that sky blue and white striped kit as a change strip about ten years or so ago but a blue kit was never going to work in Newport!

    Until we went down to 10 men just before half time you were. We scored early in the second half, had something to hang on to and you never really looked like equalising.

    Final league matches 2020/21

    The Chesterfield game was last but one game of the 17/18 season on a Tuesday night and we had nothing to play for as the play-offs were long gone. Lost 1-0 and then drew final game at Carlisle 1-1 and finished 11th. Last game of 18/19 season we went to Morecambe needing a win to be certain and...
