The club will surely be hoping to break 8k attendance for this. Expect Newport to bring c.700,  so 7.3k home fans should be  easily achievable, given current feel good factor and summer holidays finished for most. Will be interesting to see whether Woolery or Doughty replace Anderson if the latter is unfit. Personally would go with Doughty and play him behind a front 3 of Isgrove, Yates and Doyle. Reasoning being that Newport will initially sit deep and Doughtys guile will be useful. Woolery to come on if game gets stretched in latter stages. Rest of the team picks itself imo if Baudry not recovered in time. No need to risk him or Anderson atm with some good squad options. Newport will mainly post a risk at set pieces and as always first goal will be crucial.

I think 8k may be a little out of our reach at the moment.

If we had beaten Colchester then I think the "feel good factor" could possibly have contributed another 600 on to our home average I think that has wilted a little and think we will get just a little more than our current home fans average of around 6,700.

Newport have never been great travellers to the CG and rarely bring more than 700 or so even when doing well.

Grinding 1-0 win. 8345 attendance. The Savoy gets trashed.

Think Wellens could be up to his old tricks again - Baudry and Anderson to start. Isgrove has been relatively quiet lately - time for a goal.

4D is more than welcome to attend, but needs to go through a rite of passage to remove the curse first.

This should do the trick.
Might sting a bit.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

True, I think were 2nd or 3rd when they came down here last season (the game where it was horrendously windy if memory serves) and only brought 600 or so.

Yes the wind was awful that day and we totally outplayed them for the first 45 mins and should have gone in 4 or 5 up.

They never seem to travel in numbers even though its only 55 miles or so, even back in the 70s and 80s when they were known for troublemaking they only ever used to bring 300 or so.
