    Justin Edinburgh RIP

    As well as watching him for us in the 90s he also took my other love (Newport County) to Wembley twice and back into the Football League after 25 years in non league. Met him in a pub in Newport once...proper nice guy. Gutted.

    spurs warm up and drills/coaching advice

    I've coached kids from u9s to u16s for the last 6 years at grassroots and academy level - the points you make are spot on regardless of age and ability. I've worked with some technically brilliant coaches who get very little out of the kids as they can't put it over in a way which engages them...

    FA Cup 2018/19

    Not as exhausted as I was! I was a little unwell in work this morning too :hungover:

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    Newport fans aren't roasting anyone - tongue in cheek comment which is very mild compared to some of the abuse Sissoko gets on here! All County fans last night, and from what I've seen on the messageboard, were nothing more than complimentary about all Spurs players. Ali came in for some stick...

    Team V Newport County

    County aren't a team full of thugs, although RB David Pipe has done time for GBH!

    Team V Newport County

    Its a feck of a lot better than it was last season but with TWO egg seizing teams playing on there it's always going to be pretty crap!

    FA Cup draw - Newport County (Away)

    I'm actually from Pontypool but have always supported County and spent most of the 90s & early 00s drinking in the Port (Rumours, Ritzy's, Brooklyn Heights before progressing to Rudi's, Le Pub, Murrenger, TJs, downstairs Cotton Club, Riverside, The Griffin, Sugarhill/The Bunker, The Vaults etc)...

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    As others have said it's not an option. Pity as playing at Wembley would've been a great day out for County fans, more money for the club and probably a better chance of getting a ticket too!

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    It tends to go in age groups i.e. those who were attracted to the double winning sides, 80s FA Cup exploits then the younger generation due to recent success and Gareth Bale. Plus of course the sons & daughters of people like myself. Ignoring the 90s we've always played the sort of football...

    FA Cup draw - Newport County (Away)

    And Justin Edinburgh took us back into the Football League as manager in 2013

    FA Cup draw - Newport County (Away)

    They usually allow away fans in Spoons but for certain games (Pompey for instance) they're a bit more selective. They allocate The Queens and The Lamb for away fans. You still live in Bettws mate?

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    Genuinely are.....huge, huge draw for County. My phone has gone into meltdown this evening from both County and Welsh Spurs supporting mates (the latter mostly asking me to get them tickets). Spurs are one of the best supported clubs in S Wales so there is massive interest.

    FA Cup draw - Newport County (Away)

    Your mate's wife is correct Not unless the ground isn't fit for purpose i.e. health and safety. Leeds had an allocation of 1300 for yesterday's match so yeah tickets will be hard to come by

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    They certainly do. Good parenting or cruelty on an awful scale?

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    Cheers mate....I sincerely hope I do too! Away would've been better no doubt but the kids were going mental when the draw was made.

    What our opponents' fans are saying about us 17/18

    (y) I can name the ground and all the first 11.....I was there yesterday. No need to be charlie big bananas is there? We're a small club but we're enjoying life at the moment, and believe me there has been very little to celebrate over the last 30 odd years.....relegated to non league in 88...

    Which opponents do we like?

    Swansea - lived there for a few years, used to watch them a bit, they play nice football and they despise cardiff West Brom - always enjoy that away trip and my best mate supports them Villa - another away trip I enjoy and I loves the Brummie accent. Outside the Prem: Newport County - my other...
