Got chatting to a couple of Newport fans who seemed to have a serious hatred for us ever since that red card, saying it was deliberate and unnecessary.

How do we feel about Newport?

Are those two Newport fans a minority or does anyone know any Newport fans who think different?



Who?

Wasn’t that a brilliant moment, the points deduction? Effectively handing an honest club, us, the title.

Interesting recap.
They got a 9 point deduction and we finished 12 above them.
Despite this, much of their noisier support claimed the title was rightfully theirs.

An approach adopted by Trump after Biden beat him in the presidential election.

And I heard that some Lib Dem Cheaterfraud supporters suggested that had league points been awarded more fairly,
by some sort of proportional goal representation,
they would of rightfully won the title.

(Still dislike Cheaterfraud, and PR, and Trump, is my answer).

My relatives are all from Newport. I was down here a couple of months back on a Sat after a Newport match and
chatting with a few in a boozer in the town centre.

I didn't sense any animosity towards us. They seemed very knowldegeable fans imo.

I've never forgiven the thugs from Darlington who crocked Bert McGonigal at the Goldstone in 1963....

Anyone else remember that?

I have seen segregation mentioned on the Eastbourne Borough v Worthing thread, I remember when Newport played at Lewes there was segregation because the Newport fans caused problems on their previous visit to the Dripping Pan.
This would have been around 2008
The match the Newport fans were segregated i didn’t see any trouble and they just seemed like decent non league fans that day.

I remember in the distant past when they played at their old ground a coin hit a linesman on the head in an FA Cup game - think their manager was Peter Beadle at the time
