17What's happened to Moriah Welsh? One of my favourite players and can't even get on as a sub
Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
18An enjoyable watch, we are definitely more competitive now and full of energy. I’m sure we will have a decent second half of the season. Not world beaters but good enough for top half. Well done Omar, big improvement tonight I thought.

19I quite enjoyed that. Kavanagh was lively and so was Bogle for a change. County gifted them two goals but they looked the more likely to win. But more positives than negatives I think.
Sorry I think the date has affected me. I'm sure I'll return to my negativity by Saturday...

20Well deserved point.Our set piece play is absolute garbage.

21Agreed on both points.fontague-smythe wrote: February 14th, 2023, 10:20 pm Well deserved point.Our set piece play is absolute garbage.
I thought that Baker looked good when he came on, very comfortable on the ball.
An enjoyable if frustrating game overall.
Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
23We got caught out early in the second half when they made 4 subs at HT. (Don’t think I’ve seen any side make that many at HT).
It took us a while to adjust.
But fair play we stuck to it and got a decent draw from the 2nd in the league.
Bogie had his best game for us and really got stuck in, I hope he can keep playing like that.
7 points out of 9 in the last 3 games, can’t moan too much about that.

Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
24Agree a well deserved point against a very efficient top 2 team. Thought subs were introduced at the right time when we looked to be running out of steam and heading for defeat.
Not sure if Stevenage's forward line were very adept at finding space or we were slack with our marking, especially for their opening goal. Probably a bit of both.
Bogles improved performance and goals were a positive, although he was limping heavily at the end. Well done to GC for having the courage to start him and give him the full 90+ mins, despite the boo boys wanting him out of the club.
Baker looked composed when he came on. Hopefully he will get some more game time.

Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
25Fair play to Bogle,he did well,some neat play near corner flag twice in first half besides his goals.He had to score the pen after he took it off Zanzalla,be interesting to hear what GC thought of that.No idea what formation we were playing with all the subs,amazed that NMW didn’t get on.The guy on the tannoy is useless,he didn’t announce Zanzalla for Kavanagh or the fact that Baker came on for Benno and,apparently,Wildig replaced James Waite.Other than that he was perfect.
Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
26Slow starts to both halves made this an uphill task but we fought hard for a point. Bogle looked entirely different ( in a good way ) but I thought the young strikers were disappointing tonight. Coughlan has got us looking far more resilient these days.

27Does anyone know what that small electronic device with flashing LEDs (about 6” high) mounted on a tripod next to the dug out is?
Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
28As one of the so called "boo-boys" I think if he'd been producing performances akin to tonight then people wouldn't have got on his back. He was one of Rowberry's big signings and frankly hasn't produced too much up to now. I do realise strikers are more affected by poor runs as they seem to rely on confidence more than other positions. It's possibly always been a case of the ball hitting him and going in that could spark a better goal return. I think dropping him from the starting line up could have given him a kick up the arse.OLDCROMWELLIAN wrote: February 14th, 2023, 11:02 pm Agree a well deserved point against a very efficient top 2 team.

Having said that he can't seem to control the ball, especially when trying to bring it down.
Let's see how he plays on Saturday. I hope he doesn't think tonight's performance is enough to see him start for the rest of the season. I got the feeling he thought he was "undroppable" earlier in the season...
Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
29Players at this level have good and bad days.I thought Adam was MOM at Barrow,today,every dead ball or pass was either under or over hit.Bogle looked decent tonight,he has to maintain that level of performance.Don’t know why NMW hasn’t figured in the last two games.
Re: Exiles Grandstand: Newport v Stevenage
30What a bitter man with selective recall, no mention of our nailed on penalty in the first half that was not given, and to say that Farquharson should have been sent off for the clash with his keeper, surely has to be his idea of a joke
