Max opened his body up well to send the keeper the other way. That’s what you get from a champions league quality striker.
Hey someone gave you a shout out on the radio pre match today, is your first name Matt? Or maybe a mates?Sat in a pub in Usk. Still soaking wet through!
Hyam and Burge were incredible with their stops today. Shipley and Vincenti were really poor.
Great point looking at it is I don't think we were up for it enough.
Newport is a real shithole by the way.
That is actually pretty funny.To be fair if that’s the only time I drank alcohol I’d be in a lot better shape.
Just back. We were poor to say the least. Lucky to get a point to be honest. Burge pulled of a worldie to keep us in it. I have no idea how he pulled it off. The only other bit of quality was Reid’s cross to Biamou for the goal.
For me Reid has to start. Made all the difference when he came on.
Pissed down the whole game in a stand with no roof and kiosks didn’t even take cards. 3rd world country Wales.
In the grand scheme of things it's an excellent point and we had favours elsewhere to boot.Great point today. Take that all day. Just a shame Mcnulty was off form.
Keeps the important unbeaten run going.
Including unbeaten away form. Massive point away from home.
Always good to get something when your not at your best. A game we would have lost 2 nil few months ago.
Superb shout out to the 1500 sky blues!
Superb support. Stuck with the team. Worth the soaking.

Plus the fact we would have to win 3 on the bounce.....hmmmmmm
Yeah just first game (or first in a while) due to commitments with your own team.Yeah that's me... What did they say?
I imagine it was @Earlsdon-Loyal-Blue texting in something stupid on behalf of me! He's got a chip on his shoulder after I did it to him!
McNulty didnt seem his normal self. Coming off the back of a hattrick I thought he had two good chances that he should've put away, or at least got on target. Shipleys header just wide early on I thought was goalbound too. I was on the right hand side of the end so didnt see how wide it went.
Congratulations to Andy aged 65 on making his 92 league grounds. I suspect it might've been the bloke in the queue with me that drinks in the Painted Lady.
Every time?????watched the highlights and thought we looked poor and did not stop them crossing into the box having said that though! we are still getting results which is a good sign. When is Ginger going to defend the ball on the back post? Again he is not attacking the ball and waiting for it to come to him and the attacking player out muscles him everytime
It's football talk, as in 150% as opposed to 100%.Every time?????
Yep especially with these new grounds popping up. I’ve got 3 left out of the 92 to watch city. Cheltenham, Fulham & Bournemouth. But then I’ve not seen City play at West Ham & Man City new grounds etc. Only the old ones. My personal opinion is the 92 to watch your own club not just any team.The 92 League ground thing is a bit woolly now that teams come and go. Its a moving target. Today's was the 120th stadium I've seen City play in, and I still havn'te been to all the clubs that are currently in the top 4 divisions.
I venture it was not a "good point".
Admittedly, It was one of my draws in a 5-3 split for the last 8 games, but was the one I thought we had most chance of winning. The crucial gap with Wycombe - the thing that really matters most - remains 6 points as they drew when we need them to lose. The gap could have been 3 points with a game in hand. Yesterday cost us a net 3 points in strict terms..
The Cheltenham, Lincoln and Notts County games look very iffy on yesterday's performance, although it should be noted that all League 2 sides are in different ways pretty much crap - or else they wouldn't be there, even the top 2
Like others Reid in, Shipley out, Vincenti to remain but Baker if well on the subs bench to replace him. A Baker-Reid combined introduction maybe too radical defensively
A win at Newport was always a big ask. At home, they’ve not been beaten by anyone on the top 7. So it was a decent result. It hasn’t cost us anything because results went our way, and we’ve closed the gap on Exeter. In the next 3, I think we need 7pts, wins v Yeovil and Crawley, and a draw at Notts County puts us in good stead.
Even down the line, Cheltenham and Notts County lost. We could be heading to a Notts County with 1 win 6. We should be looking at a draw here minimum. As for Lincoln, they’re a threat, but with home advantage I fancy us for all 3pts. In the last 8, we’ve only dropped points to Accrington and Luton.
He finds his man most times. He is obviously instructed to kick to the touch line onto the head of a big man. Yesterday that was Vincenti who he found several times. His kicking can be poor and he needs to improve but that shouldn’t blind people to the good things he does.So your guessing thats the instruction then because you love burge? Even if it was robins orders he never finds a man so its still shit.
Newport's recent form ropey - they have slipped back. I had it as a draw as well, but the most winnable one, and I suspect we need 6-2 for the autos, not my 5-3.. The killer, Oti's insistence notwithstanding, was Notts County's failure to beat Wycombe. We now have 7 rather than 8 games to close the gap on Wycombe, easy in a relegation dogfight where teams usually drop points, but not in a promotion race. On current form Notts County may be in a fight for a top 7 finish, so had they scraped a 1-0 win in what was apparently a crap game, that would have been the best resultA win at Newport was always a big ask.
