I don't get the idea that Hughes must be getting paid a fortune. He can either have a pay packet from football, say, the same size as Adams or no pay packet at all. If he has stashed away enough not to need a pay packet, it suggests he's taking the job for the right reasons.

It might depend on whether he can work with a DoF.

Just reading Oldham's forum and they have signed Tope Obadeyi as a free agent. Apparently he trialled with County pre-season and in a "development" friendly recently but I don't think he trained continuously with us in the meantime. [Apologies, name misspelt.]

Brandon Cooper was outstanding for us, bar one game when he handed Oldham two goals. Not only his own performances but in improving players around him. Liam Shephard was never the same at RB without Cooper alongside him.

Dale Vince was on Radio 4's Any Questions last night - 8 p.m. Friday on BBC Sounds or 1.10 p.m. today on R4 as a repeat.

Oh no, dithkwimination! No, afraid I wasn't there.

Did Scunthorpe publish a figure for away support?

I'm very wary, Scunthorpe are a major banana skin and discovering they haven't beaten us in the current era only adds to that. They are right up against it having sold their best striker and losing a regular midfielder to a spitting ban and unless they get their arses in gear very soon they are...

Abrahams is a hell of an athlete but makes too many poor choices. He gives the impression of being someone who could do well at any number of sports but not a natural footballer. One thing he does well is coming on as a sub and hauling the play upfield.

If they have the space that sounds very sensible.

What's the ticket policy?

Expected a battle but it was a nice routine win. They had a bad day and we filled our boots. Harrogate were poor in the same way we've been in a couple of long-distance away games, second best all over the field except for their new signing Diarra and taking him off amounted to throwing in the...

I thought Missilou looked OK the little I saw of him, admittedly only on iPlayer. Puzzling signing really, we just always had a couple of better options for his role.

As the years pass I'm increasingly impressed with Vince as a chairman.

James Waite, ex-Cardiff attacking midfielder who spent the first half of the season with Penybont in the Welsh Premier. Looks slightly built but very quick and a known quantity to James Rowberry who coached him at Cardiff.

Drakeford might look like he's left the coat hanger in his suit jacket but he's dead right England is the outlier on restrictions. That said the Chester thing is ridiculous and they should obviously be allowed crowds.

Fair play Salford looked a good side and had clearly done their homework with heavy but fair marking of Azaz in particular, but we were really easy meat all over the pitch.

A good friend supports Wrexham but my worry shared by many Newport supporters is to do with broadcasting politics. Historically we haven't always had a fair deal from BBC Wales - going way back to the legal dispute with the FAW they were part of the nationalist conspiracy. If Wrexham get...

I've only ever seen Upson via iFollow but it looks like a win-win for all parties. He's from East Anglia so can move closer to home. We get a player off the wage bill who seems to be fading as a 90-minute contributor and unlikely to get much game time before his contract is up. Tisdale gets a...

Newport's ground tenure has gone quiet in public for a while which can only be a good thing. The original rugby club, now in sadly reduced circumstances, has been eased out to play nearly all its games at Spytty Park which we left for Rodney Parade. With every year that passes the town seems...
