Have they changed their away fans option? Never been offered standing their before, well not when I’ve been.

Edit: just reread it, it’s covered or uncovered seating. I read it as uncovered standing.

I’d personally go for covered, it’s down the side and proper stand, yet uncovered is a temporary stand and let’s face it, you can’t trust the weather…

Apparently, they are not selling the standing area until the seating area tickets have all been sold.

Horrible place and stadium yep, but the pitch itself is quality now compared to the swimming pool/quagmire it always used to be- the WRU have thrown a fortune at the place and as a ball playing side I reckon it'll suit us

Went there in the play-offs, and the temporary seating looked like it was about to fall down any moment!  On that basis I would recommend the covered seating.

Agree. Absolute pit. Probably the worst in L2 all things considered.

Some great bars in the centre of town though. Le Pub, tiny rebel have a bar there (fantastic range of beers - and if you can get there, the brewery isn’t too far away) and potters are great places. There was always a bar at the ground too.

Am I the only one who likes Rodney Parade then?

Covered seating for me though Luke, if there's any left when I come to buy a ticket that is. Still finalising plans.

I reckon so. Newport is a weird place and the ground is odd. Been a few times, may be it’s because we’ve always been excrement when I’ve been but it’s certainly not the best.

But I could see why some would like it. It’s certainly different and better than an identikit stadium.

Reckon we could hit 500 to this one? 800 to Walsall is very good considering the financial situation for everyone at the moment.

Just bought my tickets, be warned there is no phone scanning or print at home option. You either have to pay for delivery or collect from BP - So exiles like myself have to pay a further £2.50-6 on top of the ticket price!

It was one or the other for me and I ended up going with Walsall since it's not quite as far and was a ground I'd never been to before. Last time I went to Newport in 2017 on a Tuesday night we took 243 there, so on a weekend with a bit more of a positive feeling around the club I reckon we'll take around 400 or so.

Newport won their fourth game in a row tonight, with Bogle on the scoresheet again. That’s 6 in his first 8 games for them, not a bad return. Set up nicely for Saturday.

Newport County have reported a break-in at their training facility at Spytty Stadium.

The League Two side believe the incident happened sometime between Monday evening and Tuesday morning.

Newport say items taken include: "Computer equipment, TVs, medical equipment and playing shirts. In addition, personal items belonging to staff and players were also stolen."

The club have appealed for anyone with information to come forward.

Newport County play their competitive matches across the city at Rodney Parade but are away at Exeter City on Tuesday evening in the EFL Trophy.


Who was it.?

Now, am not quite basil the great mouse detective or inspector monkfish, but surely you’ve got to be asking :

‘When was the last time you saw it and when was it first discovered missing?’


Now, get your knickers on and make me a cup of tea

I spoke to the ticket office Tuesday morning after not being able to purchase tickets online. Bought four tickets and paid for special delivery as I was told this was the only way to get the tickets. They didn’t mention pay on the gate, might have been nice if they had if it’s an option. Currently concerned the tickets won’t get here in time.
