Well, you can't be too tough after that, great effort considering the conditions and opposition. It's a shame we fucked the first half of the season up really.

Exeter play FGR last game, just to keep the hope going :-)

Good performance against a poor Newport team who didnt threaten us at all.
Everyone gave it all but came up short on the goal front...again.
With a decent poacher we would be going up, I have said that all season and still say it.

We were by far the better team, especially in the 2nd half. I said it Saturday and I'll say it again... we'll be deadly if we had a poacher. Robinson's a good player but he shows to often why he's never been prolific in his career.
Still, gained a point. 3 points adrift and 5 games to go.

We'd have let a 97th minute goal in a few months ago. Good point, still hope.

...and yet strangely, with Exeter fluffling their lines/Sol Campbell's football management wizardry (which included two former Town players scoring, in Smith (Harry) & Rose (Michael) ), we are still say it very quietly, just about in with a chance. Can the season just be either over now and us not be in the POs or us in them! It. Is. The. Hope. That...arrgghh!  |

Absolutely. 15 points still to play for its still game on however unlikely the play offs may seem. I just don't get some posters on here saying they don't think we need a poacher/goal scorer, I would say Ajose would have scored 30+ this season in this team. |

An impressive point keeps Newport down for now, and we're still in the top half.... need more of the same on Saturday.
Sadly Oldham have picked up since Scholes left.

Oldham are indeed the form team in the league with 3 straight wins.
