    FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds

    Newports pitch looking shocking again

    Only relaid in the summer and it's already cutting up.
    Terrible view on the TV as well the shadow of the Stand and the glare from the sun make it almost impossible to make out what player is what

    But they’re trying to play football, not too badly and not hoof ball.

    Looks long ball to me.
    Can't blame them as the ball is bobbling all over.

    Newport the better side at the moment.
    1-1 and look the most likely to win.
    Draw would be great for them financially.

    2-1 As I type!!!

    Re: Newport County

    2-1 Croesy. Great performance. A big coincidence that it was Sunday 6th January 2002 that we beat Leeds. Almost exactly 16 years to the day. And a Sais gets sent off too!

    Nothing wrong with the long ball if it works especially when the pitch is cut up.

    Absolutely.... you use the conditions to your advantage.

    Fantastic result for the 'port, pleased for them (yeah okay, even though they 'hate' us)

    Not on TV over here.

    FA Cup coverage is on FOX which means Kate Abdo is presenting. Nice way to start a Sunday.

    Those Newport fans on the pitch at the end?? Were they time travellers from the early 90s? They looked flowered up to me

    Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds

    No fan of Newport but they were great today, caused Leeds endless problems and deserved their win.
    That’s what Leeds get for making 9 changes.

    But it wasn’t Hoofball! With no aim.

    I only watched the last 30 minutes and it looked like it was mostly long ball into the box and it worked.

    We've done it in the past with great effect.

    By the way I never use that term. It's the sort of bollox used by football snobs like Jerssey who try to belittle other clubs achievements by suggesting the way they play is somehow worse even though they get results.

    Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds

    Totally deserved that, they were unlucky to go 1 down but were the best side throughout. Jursset should be on soon claiming the win. City v Cewnty in a competitive match Somerton in the 70's
