Sounds like a shocker of a goal and I hope we can equalise.

BBC says 'outside the UK'
All it took was looking at tapes of 2 games for our opponents to figure us out.

Not surprised by the performance or the result as I was half expecting it. First two games probably flattered us a bit. All is not lost though, the season is just going to be a bit tougher than some expected. Early days but we need to learn from this performance.

There'll be a lot of unfair negativity because we lost but we've not conceded a proper goal in 3 league games. Needs a slightly different team at home than we started with today if teams come for a draw. Newport didn't seriously trouble us once.

Full time 1-0 Newport

Bollocks to that - roll on Yeovil and the pub at closing time tonight.
Thanks for the commentary today much appreciated even though we we lost.

Poor, didn't have a decent shot on target until tony hit that swivel shot after 70+ mins.

Too little too late, a wake up call that we aren't going to have all our way and teams are going to come here and raise their games.

Unfortunately we didn't other than a couple of efforts. We will need to be more adventurous at home.

As I predicted earlier this season. We'll win more away from home. It's very difficult to play against teams that come to defend from the front in a sparsely populated stadium with a crowd that is expectant.

Nothing to do with their defending.
Their passing movement everything was better then ours.
We looked a very poor team

Well that wasn't very good was it, if I wasn't in an all inclusive hotel id want my €6 euros back for beer money.

Our passing was shocking. What cost us.

Not sure why Duck dint come on.

Andreu looks like a great talent.

Ref was poor. I guess in league 2 time waisting and dangerous sliding in arnt fouls
