Newport (FA Cup) Post Match Thread

Pitch was pretty decent tbf to them, and as soon as final whistle went groundsmen were tending to it instantly. I think the Welsh RFU put £1m into the pitch?
I was impressed with how it was so much better than when they played Boro but then again it always looks worse on tv!
 
No, it indicates that the football team and two rugby teams play on the same pitch, and that the groundsman isn't fucking Merlin.
Correct, the pitch clearly wasn't perfect, but it was relatively flat, it didn't cut up that much, and we mostly played our passing game on it very well, the ground staff had made it as flat as possible, and should get credit for the job they'd done. It could have been far worse, but clearly Newport want to play football on it.
 
A really tricky banana skin avoided, so well done to the boys in blue. Not quite York away but I was at these FA Cup shocks back in the day:





Lets all enjoy today/tonight the future is bright and it's sky blue

Ha ha. Me too. Highlights of the Shrewsbury match, decent chippy before the game and a snowball fight.
 
Yeah, job done. Good result but hard fought at times for an oil-rich team worth 5.9 million gazillion billion million bazillion one hundred and thirty two thousand million and seventeenty gabllion million billion pounds, against a team worth the same as a sandwich.

Come On You dirty oil filthy Boys !!

Perfectly summed up the BT Sport commentary for the game.
