    2nd Signing - Duckens Nazon

    Against Notts county Vincenti was our best outlet for going long from the keeper. I'd more try to accommodate Andreu than nazon at this stage, but no one deserves to lose there place.

    We're 2 games in after a great start, however "let's see where we are after 10 games" Hopefully on that winning streak still.

    I still think it would be foolish to write off Newport county at this stage of the season or any any time. L2 don't work like that, and they've had a reasonable start to the season scoring 4 league goals and 6 in all competitions. This game has the potential to be the banana skin that welcomes...

    Jodi Jones with a message for the kids

    Thing is he's right, Issac Vassell is the most recent proof of that having been released by Plymouth and doing 2/3 seasons in non league with Truro before Luton took a punt on him and gave him a second chance and a platform to showcase his talent. Now signed for Birmingham City.

    They may well have a small budget but they've retained some useful players, but above everything there fight for survival last year seems to have galvanised then some what and Micheal Flynn has them playing for him. They may not be big names on below average L2 wages but we'd be silly to think...

    It's a near certainty that Frank Nouble will score, ex players seem to notch against us and we're yet to concede in the league. A difficult game, potential banana skin this one

    Mansfield have failed to land James Hanson from Sheffield united after a bid had been accepted, but the player rejected the move. Issac Vassell has joined Birmingham city from Luton. Was a labourer and playing for Truro just over 12 months ago.

    Team togetherness

    If anything I'd say MR and TW are working under tighter constraints than TM and MV did last year.

    Team togetherness

    I don't imagine he's been backed anymore than TM was, it's more a case of knowing the level and extensive knowledge of TW of this level. To me it's more a case of the management team having a better knowledge of knowing the level and working to maximise the budget identifying players who fit...

    Andy Rose scored for Motherwell with Gael Bigirimana making him a debut in a 4-1 loss to ST Johnstone David Mcgoldrick scored in Ipswich's win over Barnsley. Frank Nouble scored his second league goal for Newport against Crewe with former loan player Chris Dagnal scoring too. Josh Ruffles...

    Team togetherness

    The biggest telling change this year is the character and mindset of the players signed, and the very fact they've been players identified fit for the level and have the desire to play for us within the set budget.

    U23 vs Bolton

    He's the lad who rejected the chance to join us in January and opted to go Portsmouth instead. He's a target man type I think, gets goals anyway at this level. I'd be very surprised if it's him

    I'm not so concerned with us facing the long ball tactics more adapted over the winter months as Mcdonald looks more than comfortable and deals with that threat and the more robust strikers, my concerns are more our lump it long tactics so far seem very ineffective. But as i say if we set out...

    I'm a little more cautious this morning, a come down after the weekend I suppose. I'm over the moon with our start, it could not of gone any better maximum points and 2 clean sheets.... However, There's always a however! Winter is not here yet, the pitches are nice and suit our style which...
