We’re at our bogey ground Rodney Parade today and it sounds like we’re actually playing well and should be at least 1 up.
We usually play shite there so happy with the performance so far but as we never win there I’m expecting a 1-0 second half defeat.

Should be 2-0 stags, but due to us being away, it’s now 1-1. Donny did not deserve that, although now we’ve been the best team for the entire first half I expect Donny to win the game in the second.
Can’t argue that you were the better team first half, only yourselves to blame for not converting the chances you’ve had. Great save from your keeper and yes it was a definite penalty, as I’m typing this we just hit the post.
Lapslie has been the best player on the pitch so far, dictating how you play

Referee been a bit of bellend. Why was our goal disallowed when we hit the woodwork twice? Did not get a great view. Great second goal.

All over Newport now, just need a goal to back it up, can’t remember us ever playing this well there creating so many chances.

1-1 was fair on reflection, crap second half, paying the price for not signing a centre forward, had two attacking mids up top.

Unforgivable from us against 10 men for 80 plus minutes. Rubbish.

Well didn't listen or watch today but reading about seems we fully deserved the win and Richardson had a great debut.

That second half was dire just sat back the whole time, no excuses should've won that.

Won’t have an easier chance to win an away game than that all season.

Throwing it away so late on, shambles

We absolutely dominated today, we look like a proper outfit and we’re not even creating much with the amount of possession we have. Very excited about us and we’ve slipped right under the radar.

Daylight robbery from us today. Walsall very direct and I don't think we won a defensive header all afternoon.

Harry Lewis MOTM without doubt. What a keeper we've got there.

lost 3-1 at Northampton, 2 sloppy goals in the first 5 mins of the 2nd half cost us. not much between the 2 teams apart from that. We hit the bar late on and Guthrie of Northampton got away with a yellow card for a horrendous challenge in the last minute of injury time which was a red card all day long. The good news is that we have Colchester next.

3rd home win on the bounce for Sutton and academy product Kylian Kouassi scored the winner. Up to 11th now, 10 points from a possible 12 at home. We should petition the EFL to let us play all our games at home.

Miserable wasn't it? Gills comms nailed it really saying how slow and pedestrian we were. To be fair to Gillingham they defended pretty well but to not be able to get 3 points against 10 men is really poor. Fans beginning to turn on Scott Lindsey, he promised aggressive attacking football and I'm not sure we are seeing anything like it.

So we wait 10 years for a goal at Newport and then 2 come along at once. ;)

Only listened to the last 30 minutes & we sounded awful.
The goal was no surprise ,after dropping deeper & deeper,inviting more & more pressure.
I wish I was pissed off,but I’m not,there was an air on inevitability about it.

Sort our defending out from set pieces and we might be ok. Scored some lovely goals today. I think Carlisle’s first goal shouldn’t have stood, as it looked a clear goal kick, but will have to watch that back on the full match replay. There’s something for us to at least build on now, scoring 6 goals in the last two away matches including midweek at Accy. Quigley had a brilliant debut today, won almost everything in the air and scored a brace. Two tricky home games coming up now, but if we play as we have today we have a chance of causing both sides a problem (Salford & Orient).

It's pretty clueless to take off one striker for another when you're against 10 for the entire match. Plymouth fans i've spoken to have all said Jephcott needs to play with a partner. The club should know that when they bring him in. Perfect opportunity to put him up there with Wakeling today and take a midfielder off. Didn't do it and we barely threatened.

The lack of urgency is baffling. Should have been putting them under as much pressure as possible. Players either unwilling or instructed not to take any risks.

Pretty dire stuff. Will get ugly quickly i think.

Early days, but we're looking very good. We're physically fitter and battle harder than most of the division if our first six matches are anything to go off. Solid at the back, keep hold of the ball. Just doing the basics right. Still got our star player to come back. Maher can't force his way in, Khan still to come back and Wearne, JMD and Orsi haven't really got going yet either.

Tbf our keeper had a blinder today, you won’t come across keepers like that every week. He’s already had a number of MOM performances and won’t be in league 2 long.

You were far better than o expect, but we certainly weren’t anywhere near where we should have been. Happy to get away with one today and hopefully improve.

Yeah I'm with you on the lack of urgency bit. Blake-Tracy for me the only player who looked 'up for it'. 8 games in and we still don't look cohesive or with an obvious game plan. I'm still behind him and really want it to work but doubts are creeping in.

Flabberghasted by HG's optimism in predicting that we'll get a point! You been on the poppers dude?

I predicted a point last week as well. Admittedly I did overestimate Gillingham’s attacking quality so got that one wrong and turns out today I underestimate’s Rochdale’s as I didn’t expect us to concede 3.

Many more performances like our last 3 in the league though, and I won’t be predicting many more points.

I think it’ll come down to which forward players are willing to battle hard. Keirnan was absolutely garbage today going forward but stopped them getting up the pitch, I’d prefer to see JMD there but you can see why he’s not and I guess it’s working.

There’ll be plenty of games we dominate and don’t win, I’m sure of that but we’ll ride the wave because it’s exciting to see how we’ve started.

Only back from holiday today so not been about, but what a bloody decent return!

Totally didn’t expect that result at all, and to outplay doncaster for most of the game was a brilliant sight to see.

Special mention to lucas akins. The move and pass for the 2nd goal!
