Newport County (H) Pobably the last time in the EFL

[Cromwell58]

This is a very dark thought - and not something to boast about - but I'll be there tomorrow as I was in '72 when we went out, and I wonder how many will "do the double" by turning up tomorrow, as they did 54 years ago? We will never know but I'll hazard a guess at 30 suffering souls, tops.

Sad to say I will have done both but can not wait another 46 years, time is against us.

Looking forward to seeing which random player we had all forgot about reappears this week and goes straight into the starting 11

Barkhuizen hasn’t been seen for a few weeks? Possibly Shipley too?!

People like Earing sum up our squad gets new contract then injured, I'd personally put money in to get rid of these people just a shame for players like Whitfield Gordon Shipley ( I know he's not that good) but at least these players care !

Barkhuizen is on the naughty step

Earing had a bad injury record at Walsall and is another one we should never have touched.

Shipley isn’t good enough but agreed he tries and you can forgive him over someone like Joe Anderson who has to be one of our worst ever signings. Has cost us so many goals, looks half hearted and hasn’t even played a lot. Whitfield, Gordon and Foley were part of the upturn in Wilds first season, that seems a long time ago now.

What’s Barkhuizen alleged to have done? Apart from perform well below what’s needed…

It’s all fine margins isn’t it. We’ve not been good enough and deserve to go down. I’m relaxed about today because I can’t see any other outcome than going out with a whimper.

Where did it all go wrong well we have tried to run a football league club like a north west countries club. People have been given positions they are not qualified for and been handed huge responsibilities

The training faculties are not good enough and due to lack of structure we’ve not really established ourselves as a football league club. We have gone down the little barrow rhetoric far too much and in football you’ve got to say we are here because we have earned the right to be and nobody in this league is better than we are - instead it’s been excuse after excuse.

Imagine if we had set up an academy 6 years ago it could have been producing players and generating money and who knows we could have replaced some of these under preforming mercenaries

Anyway let’s hope for a miracle today

[bluessupporter]

I wonder if the players are on any incentive today.

[LCBAFC40]

Be very interesting to see the squad for today esp starting 11 with goals required
Heard a rumour Stanway not starting today

[Always Ultra]

We are luckily blessed to have a board who are also Barrow football fans, you do wonder what their appetite is for a new non league excursion with the grief and cost that goes with it.

A board of Morecambe fans couldn't have [SwearFilter] it up more.

He is obviously away his heads not been right for a while and has been chucking goals in all over. Winterbottom or Barrett should’ve been given a go after his Fleetwood display if not sooner.

About time winterbottom got a run out, id be stunned if hes not our number 1 gk next season. Thats if he doesn't decide to go elsewhere, which i wouldn't blame him for.

Training facilities need changing ASAP, not playing on grass clearly hasnt helped this year. There was a rumour a while back about moving to preston but not sure if its the usual nonsense that gets banded around socials.

[beachy01]

Barrett starts in goal, sam foley plays is my prediction

[blue nige]

Just been talking to a few Newport fans and they're convinced we'll beat them and they'll go down with us !, actually they all seemed a decent bunch !

Agree with all of it. We struggled. Money had to go into the first team.
