FA Cup draw - Newport County (Away)

[Speedy]

I would be amazed if ours and Man Utd games weren't televised.

The chance for national level banter will be too tempting for broadcasters

 

[Dougal]

This is everything I know about Newport.

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?

Yeah still live in Bettws where are you at?

Q was born in Bettws, also Tony Pulis is from Pill in Newport, that's why I always look out for him, his niece isn't the best though

 

[St José Dominguez]

Hopefully we can get to the semi final to see if we do have some sort of advantage this year. By the Semi we'd have played 20 odd games at Wembley and it surely has to count for something. Need City getting knocked out, other than them I fancy us to beat Chelsea, Utd or Liverpool at Wembley.

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). Used to be a great night out but unfortunately town just isn't the same anymore

I bet we get the Away dressing room?

When do they decide the televised games.?Only a few weeks away.

... downstairs Cotton Club...

Is that slang for a tampon?

 

[davidmatzdorf]

In many respects, this thread is the very definition of TMI.

 

[The Swellhead Spur]

Real version.

 

[nightgoat]

One day in Newport is the only time I've been to Wales. I'm guessing it's not the greatest snapshot...

 

[Cheltenham Spur]

When do they decide the televised games.?Only a few weeks away.

I did a quick Google search for this and it only brought up the 3rd round announcement. But that was the Thursday after the draw so it may be today we find out.

Ah no.

 

[Yid121]

At least it wasn't the Friday evening slot or Liveroool's later Saturday evening slot

Seems odd to put the marquee united game on a Friday evening?!

 

[Fowl!]

I've never seen so much mud anywhere. It is where mud goes on holiday and never leaves.
