So two weeks left of the window and this is where we stand. I do wonder if CF & HJ think that midfield is enough. I'd love to see one more body brought in there. I think with the number of strikers we have we need to move 1 or 2 out and maybe look at playing Opoku as a wide option.

Annoying because we've played much better today. Definitely some areas we need to improve upon but I've got more confidence about our survival hopes. I think without the ludicrous amount of injury time, we'd get at least a draw and probably a win. On to next week 🧡

Spent a good chunk of the afternoon criticising Spellman's inclusion in today's squad... #NCAFC

James Crole - 21 Tanatswa Nyakuhwa - 32 The departure of Ogunneye (25) means Thomas (21) comes in, however the 4 point defect is made up by bringing in Nyakuhwa (32) for Kamwa (38) Average SCPSM is 23.6

I fear I may have too much time on my hands...

Rest In Peace Carabao Cup Preliminary Round You will be missed (probably by Michael Reindorf & Cam Antwi)

No pod today/tomorrow as usual, because there's obviously been no game upon which to report. But we hope to have an episode later in the week, previewing both the #Gills game and the Supporters' Trust AGM. 👀 #ncafc 🧡🖤

We're not doing a big ko-fi push this month, as January's an expensive time. But if you can spare a minute to leave a five-star review for the podcast on whatever podcast platform you use, we'd really appreciated it... And we'll read out the best ones too! #ncafc 🧡🖤

I guess with the dumpster fire that THAT place is becoming, I'm going to make more of an effort to post on here. 👋🏻

Always a pleasure to chat on the pod. Just glad I got to do it before the match ! Get listening now 🧡

Here’s chapter and verse from statman @cymruollie.bsky.social:

🧮 Breaking maths update! 🧮 @cymruollie.bsky.social‬ has done his sums, and next season's away trips are looking a lot more manageable - for those of us in southeast Wales, anyway. (sorry ‪@ianstreet.bsky.social) #ncafc 🧡🖤

Always a pleasure to be on the pod, recounting the trials and tribulations of attending all 51 matches this season, whilst also giving the Supporter's Club a little plug. Hoping to see a few new faces on the coach and in the away ends next season! 🧡

I don't ask for much in this life, but winning 3-0 at Bristol Rovers on opening day of the season in 20°C weather isn't too much to ask for, right ? 🧡

🤦🏻‍♂️ Ep227: Objectively safe, subjectively dreadful 🤦🏻‍♂️ @ianstreet.bsky.social's match diary from a Fleetwood defeat... a deFleetwood, if you will. LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE 🟢 Spotify: tinyurl.com/1912exilessp... 🍎 Apple: tinyurl.com/1912exilesap... 💻 Online: shows.acast.com/1912exiles #ncafc 🧡🖤

How Carlisle spent a tonne of cash and finished below us is impossible to understand. Great to dissect another woeful second half with @ianstreet.bsky.social , @cymruollie.bsky.social, Iwan and Harri. Reminder to myself, I'd have definitely taken 22nd last August. #ncafc

Not even 12 hours in and we're crossing names off like it's going out of fashion !

Funnily enough, Ep226 saw Jack put forward the name of a former Cymru international - not to universal delight... FULL EPISODE 🌳 linktr.ee/1912exiles #ncafc 🧡🖤

Newport County Head Coach Bingo If you see a name linked with us, cross it off and have a drink 🍻

Doesn’t sound like the longest away trip of the season is going well. @CymruOllie is *fuming*. #ncafc 🧡🖤 #cufc 🦊

In Ep217, we reported from the club's Q&A with Huw Jenkins. As we hear in the clip below, one question (from @cymruollie.bsky.social) was on the future of head coach Nelson Jardim... LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE TO THE POD 🌳 linktr.ee/1912exiles #ncafc 🧡🖤

Anyway, UP THE 1-0 SH*THOUSING COUNTY. Another three points, and we can all breathe a little bit easier this morning. We'll hopefully have a pod out for you later, depending on what #GreatContent Rhys recorded last night... #ncafc 🧡🖤

The reviews of Ep215 are in! "Great" - @cymruollie.bsky.social "Excellent pod" - @ianstreet.bsky.social "Can someone tell Ed to stop eating the microphone? The audio levels are all over the shop" - Jack, constructive as always Get downloadin', folks! #ncafc 🧡🖤

The goal for 2025 is to split the G. Pretty solid effort but I'm working to fine margins

Not “a more effective policy on immigration” or “a more rational debate around immigration”, just “a tougher message”. Everything that’s wrong with #ukpolitics in a nutshell. #ukpol #migration

Not great performances but 6 points are 6 points all the same. Great to see ( or hear I guess) new voices on the pod 🧡

Big thanks to @cymruollie.bsky.social and debutant @dajevans89.bsky.social for their input!

Massive, massive victory (especially against those bastards) Not the most comfortable performance but a win nonetheless. Big shout outs to Joe Thomas and Cameron Antwi for two top notch performances. 10 points clear. A win against Carlisle next Tuesday and I think we're safe 🧡

Well this transfer deadline day has been immensely boring 💤

Don't want to push our luck, as you listeners are super generous - but if you want to support what we do, then you can donate as little as £2 via our ko-fi below. And if you can't, that's fine - but do recommend us or leave a nice review! 🛒 ko-fi.com/s/d3a3567a0a #ncafc 🧡🖤

Sorry Robinson, but your side kicked us black and blue, but in adversity, we kept on keepin on Fornah was jumping into several reckless challenges, and Tilt poked Whitmore in the eye but escaped punishment. www.gazetteherald.co.uk/sport/248929...

I think now that I've slept and I'm less grumpy, it was a pretty decent point but could've been so much more. Always a pleasure to feature on the pod and watch matches alongside @ianstreet.bsky.social & Diesel. Get listening folks 🧡

Trans rights are human rights. Gay rights are human rights. Fuck right off if you think a human doesn’t deserve human rights.

Not a match I particularly want to remember, but some great points raised by Ed, Simon and the wider fan base. If you're a sadist, give the pod a listen ( if not for the match, then for my excellent comment about Keiron Evans ' passing ability) 🧡

In our recent interview, County chairman Huw Jenkins spoke frankly about the disappointment of recent defeats, but argued the strengthening being done in January will unblock the side's goal drought. Agree? Disagree? Comment below. FULL EPISODE 🌳 linktr.ee/1912exiles #ncafc 🧡🖤

ICYMI, yesterday we dropped an interview with #NewportCounty chairman, Huw Jenkins. It's essential listening for any County fan, with lots of insights into the club and plans for the future. FULL EPISODE 🌳 linktr.ee/1912exiles#NewportCounty #ncafc 🧡🖤

A few notes from tonight's AGM for @NCAFC_Trust members who couldn't make it. Great to hear the Trust is building up the necessary funds for any potential buyback or future running of the club and excellent to see Jenkins is giving a high level of transparent communication 🧡

Whilst it's not in one of the positions most fans are earmarking as "crucial", I hope Josh can bolster our creativity up front. Can play either wing or through the centre & even left wing back where needed. Love that it's a 6 month deal with an option to extend. Shrewd business. Croeso Josh 🧡

We spoke to @uglygame.bsky.social back in February on Ep170 of the pod. Today marks a year since the release of his really excellent book, which we heartily recommend - and you should also give him a follow on here because he's super interesting. #ncafc 🧡🖤

🚨TRUST AGM REMINDER🚨 Don’t forget, tonight is the @ncafctrust.bsky.social AGM. Details as per the screengrabs. If you’re a Trust member, still time to register here: www.eventbrite.co.uk... #ncafc 🧡🖤

A few nice reviews of Ep211 and our interview with Huw Jenkins. If you've not let listened, you should - and if you have, recommend us to another County fan! LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE 🟢Spotify: tinyurl.com/1912exilessp... 🍎Apple: tinyurl.com/1912exilesap... 💻Online: shows.acast.com/1912exiles #ncafc 🧡🖤

Listened yet, County fans? Thoughts and reflections on the big interview? Will RT some of the most interesting ones tonight. Also, do share or recommend the episode to any County fans you know who haven't yet listened - we hope you agree this one deserves a wider audience! #ncafc 🧡🖤

There's certainly a player in there, but he's been unfortunate with injuries so it makes sense. Hope he has better luck wherever he ends up next
