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

Re: Newports pitch looking shocking again
But they’re trying to play football, not too badly and not hoof ball.

Really?
I thought they make us look like Reading in comparison

More like rag and bone men.

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

Re: Newports pitch looking shocking again
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!!!

Yeah. Ok. They’ve been excellent

Re: Newports pitch looking shocking again
THAT was a great header !

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.

So happy for all the old Somerton lads that I know

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds

Absolutely.... you use the conditions to your advantage.
Fantastic result for the 'port, pleased for them (yeah okay, even though they 'hate' us)

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Not on TV over here.
FA Cup coverage is on FOX which means Kate Abdo is presenting. Nice way to start a Sunday.

Re: Newports pitch looking shocking again
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.

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:yikes: Somerton in the 70's
-
Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Well done Cewnty, smashing win.:thumbup:
-
Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Amazing match, last 20 mins are as good as they get in an FA Cup game. Well done Newport!

Indeed I lived there for a whilst still suported the City, attracting a lot of abuse, but attended some games with them and knew a few players back in the day,
they are potty fans and still are, real old skool fans ,bit jealous as we've lost that .

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
I hate Newport but a fully deserved win well done.

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Well done Newport. Enjoy it. Why not. David Pipe looks like he should be working on the door of Ritzy's.

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Well done County. Thoroughly deserved win. played some good stuff too. Great winning goal. Got them in my Lucky 15 too.

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Well done, Newport.
Think the Leeds manager was a trifle over-confident in his team selection.
Never mind Newport could only beat whoever turned up.
Enjoy the moment lads and lasses and good luck with the draw.

Re: FT Newport 2 - 1 Leeds
Well done Cewnty. A fully deserved victory, with a great winning goal.
Hope they get one of the plastic's away for a good pay day, next round
Or it could be us they are drawn against, if we beat Mansfield. Is anyone here confident we will actually do that ??

Why do you "hate" County? I'm a City supporter but I always look out for Newport and Wrexham results after ours. Fantastic result for County today, against Leeds of all teams!

Looks like he can handle himself. My mate from Caerphilly said the Pipe family have a big sporting tradition.

Not only that Leeds were 53 places higher in the league, the same amount of places as when we beat them
It’s the 7th today though
