Lavelle I'd forgotten""

Morning folks. Canadian Expeditionary Shrimp checking in. Need more tea. Not awake.

Lancashire tea, this morning. I'm fortunate to have a wonderful, very well stocked UK shop in town.

Too busy having breakfast to say it at the time, but:

McGowan is underated, in my opinion.

Great attacking movement so far.

There are far worse shirt sponsors.

Just worked out how to sync your commentary with the picture,
I had to delay you by 19 seconds!!.
Now this is good, worth every penny of $185.00 dollars Australian, (About 3 pounds in your money lol

It's tremendous fun. I was concerned about the price at first too, ($190 CAD), but I don't regret it in the slightest.

Also: EEELLLLIISSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNN!!!

Aeuugghjahhhhfhhahjhgh

Well, we have scored first to take the lead (a first this season).
We have scored in the first half (again a first this season).
Now let's get the win and 3 points.

Second half! COME ON, YOU SHRIMPS!

Our best player Osborne gets replaced by the out of form Rose, bizarre!

Still awake but struggling,
We're not playing too well at the moment

We seem to have lost all attacking composition and coordination now. :/

WOW! WHAT A BEAUT!

Whhheeeyyyy! Odd game but great result! Well done!

BBC stats show us having 18 shots with 11 on target as opposed to Newport 11 shots with just 2 on target.

If those stats are anywhere near correct then it is a HUGE improvement on recent efforts.

But an attendance of less than 1200!!

I think we would all have settled for the 3 points though before the start of play.

Well done lads.....we needed that. Onward and upward!

won 2 out of 4 home games in L2 now, keep it going!


We started today with the right attitude from the off, we looked like we wanted it more, apart from a good 15 minute Newport spell in the 2nd half.


Muller & Old looks a good defensive pairing in a flat back 4.


plus another positive Olivier should be back for the next game, and Campbell shown us today he could be our very own Paul Scholes, a goal scoring midfielder, Ginger hair n all that

Easily the best performance so far this season, Osbourne played very well and was my man of the match till he was subbed, McGurk is obviously a good footballer who will only get better with more game time and Cambell did well when he came on, Old and Muller looked a good partnership at the heart of the defence so lots of positives to be taken from this performance and don't the Newport fans just love Kev .

A good win and a relief to get another 3 points.

We made hard work of it but got there in the end. McGurk was my man of the match. He worked tirelessly and showed some good skill and composure on the ball. Thommo played well but his numerous crosses into the box were mostly wasted as there was nobody there to connect with them. Olivers return will help us in that regard.

One of the things we didn't have last season which the Wembley Legend brings is dangerous crosses into the right areas. Long may it continue.
