    Newport winning, Hartlepool losing

    Newport out of the relegation zone. Can they hold on?

    Hartlepool 2 down. Newport have to hold on.

    Hartlepool then have to beat either Cheltenham (away) or Doncaster (Home) to have a chance of staying up.

    The Great escape is on, Newport out of the zone.

    Hats off for the "passion", but a lot of the time he comes across as a bit fake.

    Offered to resign as club president if he's overstepped the mark. Says this is not Jones' level. Fair point, Jones has managed at higher levels but he joined after the transfer window closed and there's not much you can do in that situation.

    Dave Jones joined Hartlepool on 18 January 2017 which was during the transfer window.

    As for not being able to do much after a transfer window has closed, what about Mike Flynn who took over at Newport in March & has done an amazing job?

    To think that Newport were 11 points off safety last month. They have a great chance now.

    Hartlepool have to win at Cheltenham or home to Doncaster.

    Newport have Carlisle away and Notts County at home. They could lose both and stay up!

    Fantastic win for County!

    Crucially Cheltenham need to get something next week as well as they are not safe themselves. So that makes it harder for Hartlepool.

    Distinct lack of class there by Jeff Stelling, to the point of bullying.
    I like Stelling but no matter what you think of Jones, or any manager for that matter, that was well OTT. There should be neutrality in his position.
    Sky... say no more!

    Apparently he had an "off camera" rant after they lost to Orient. Only for it to be picked up on camera once the classified results finished. Completely staged. David Jones deserves a bit more respect than that, it's hardly an easy job is it?

    He also said they need a new manager for the Cheltenham game when showing the tables. Poor show Sky/Stelling.

    Stelling is a great presenter but he is abusing his position demanding Dave Jones should be sacked.

    Newport's next game is a side just outside of the play-offs so not easy. They have the better momentum but are still reliant on Hartlepool losing due to really poor standards earlier in the season.

    Yes but Hatrlepool's final game is against Doncaster whereas Newport are at home to Notts County. Cheltenham will be all out to avoid defeat against Hartlepool as well otherwise they are right back in the mire themselves

    Amazing comeback from Cewnty, made up for them, let's hope they finish the job. Dunno what they're going to do about their groundshare though, seems to have been a bloody disaster

    In fairness, he's always shown his Hartlepool colours. No problems from me.

    Give me this over Tim "I used to support Watford but now Chelsea are my team" Lovejoy any day. I'd also rate it over any of the Arsenal fan pundits worried about being 4th best out of 92, Liverpool pundits or Manchester United pundits too.
