1912 Exiles

So near, but yet so far... Analysing that painful late, late defeat at Edgeley Park, Ed & Jamie are joined by pod debutant Alfie and regular contributor Ollie to question the officiating whilst still paying tribute to a battling performance that so nearly paid off. Ahead of Tuesday night's Fourth Division game against Morecambe, we also thank Dave Salmon for his voicenote telling us everything we need to know about our visitors.

Right at the start, Ed teased you by saying that anyone setting up a £2pm donation via our ko-fi account before the month is out will receive a mystery gift through the post - do support us if you can. And if you can't, please at least leave a nice review via your podcatcher or give us a plug on social media.

We'll be back next weekend with an episode covering the Morecambe game and also the Big Lads Day Out to AFC Wimbledon - it should be a fun one, come and say hullo if you see us. In the meantime, get in touch via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn if you want to. Thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme, and thanks to all of you for listening.

The 1912 Exiles threw this one open to you - our wonderful listeners - to make sense of today's defeat to Mansfield. Some agreed with our view that today just needs to be dismissed as an off day against a quality side - others argued that this showed a lack of ambition, and wholesale changes are required. There were some strong words for the ref, differing opinions about the quality of our opponents, and a lot of looking ahead to what the summer might hold. Whether you agree with us and we agree with you, thank you to everyone who took the time to send stuff in. And if you missed your opportunity today then you can contact us through Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, and you can contribute a voicenote via our Speakpipe page.

Thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme, and thanks to all of you for listening. If you like what we do, you can donate the price of a Bovril towards our running costs through our ko-fi account. We'll be back next weekend - but until then, look after yourselves and each other, and Keep It County.

Our man on the northern beat, Ian Street, makes a rare foray even further towards the arctic to bring you a matchday diary from Harrogate away. In the middle of a dizzying start to 2024, Newport County find themselves just two points off the playoffs, with huge games to come in the next few weeks.

But instead of feeling daunted by games against the league's top two, why not settle in with a heartwarming listen, as Ian does battle with the Harrogate PA system, shares his best Martin Tyler, "Agueroooooooo" impression, and a bit of potted history about the Bath Spa of the north.

Don't forget, we have two excellent episodes in our feed: our chat with Newport County media manager Louis Cartwright-Walls and South Wales Argus wordsmith Chris Kirwan on the media storm surrounding the Manchester United game last month; and our interview with Martin Calladine about his new book, No Questions Asked: how football joined the crypto con. Both well worth checking out if you haven't already.

Keep your eyes peeled for some more interviews in the coming weeks and months, as well as our regular panel chats and matchday diaires. In the meantime, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn and send us your thoughts and questions. You can also contribute a voicenote via our Speakpipe page or donate the price of a Bovril towards our running costs through our ko-fi account.

In a highly unusual move, we're dropping an episode on a Saturday and bringing you another belting interview. In this one, Jamie speaks with Chris Kirwan (of the South Wales Argus) and Louis Cartwright-Walls (Media Manager for Newport County AFC) about being at the centre of the media storm during our FA Cup tie with Manchester United. They discuss having to stay professional when all around them were getting carried away with the hype, the mixed feelings towards the journos turning up to Rodney Parade as one-off day-trippers, and their matchday routines.

Another 'pod of two halves' as we balance analysis of on-the-pitch matters with a broader look at other issues. Part 1 of this episode is a catch up between Rhys and Ed about the home matches against Notts County and Gillingham, with County demonstrating great 'bouncebackability' powered by Will Evans' scoring antics. Then, in Part 2, we speak with Martin Calladine about his new book, No Questions Asked: how football joined the crypto con. The book is excellent, and comes highly recommended by your 1912 Exiles, and Martin gives us his insights into how poorly-regulated and often criminal crypto enterprises have preyed on football fans.

In the absence next weekend of County playing a proper game against an opponent who deserves to exist, we'll bring you another cracking interview in lieu of a match report; stay subscribed so you don't miss out. In the meantime, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn and send us your thoughts and questions. You can also contribute a voicenote via our Speakpipe page or donate the price of a Bovril towards our running costs through our ko-fi account.

We were going to wait until after the Notts County game to drop an episode, but after THAT 3-0 win up at Walsall, Jamie demanded an emergency pod. So he dragged Ed out of bed on a Sunday morning, and with the help of Arnie's match day diary, they dissected that cracking away performance.

Also in the pod: how can Newport cope with a tough run of fixtures coming up? How many leaders can one side have? Is H.W.J. Charsley a butcher, a poet, or a 19th Century sportsman?

After 167 episodes, Ep168 marks a bit of a new era for the 1912 Exiles....

We are delighted to announce that we have partnered with talkSPORT to be a part of their fan network of podcasts, hear more at the top of the pod.

The first half of the episode is an Ed (https://toot.wales/@DrEdBridges) match diary of the game against Swindon Town, with guest input from Robins fan Phil (https://twitter.com/philmoomp) as well as Hazells Stand regulars Stu, Fraser, Ollie and Chris. Despite an immediate setback, a tactical masterstroke at half-time saw County conjure up a win which leaves them on 40pts and looking firmly up the table.

In the second half of the show, we bring you the first of a few planned bonus features over the coming month. In this one, we check in with Newport City Women FC (https://twitter.com/newportcitywfc) , hearing from their players Amy Doswell and Sophie Jenkins about how their season is going and how healthy the women's game is in Newport more generally. If you want to lend them your support, the games they mention at the end are away at Cardiff City U19s at Ocean Park in Cardiff on Sunday 11 February (2pm) and a big game at Newport Velodrome against Penybont on Sunday 21 April (also 2pm).

Yes yes, we know that there's the big victory over Wrexham to discuss – but we wanted to cynically capitalise on the extra interest around the Man Utd game, so we’ve created this big preview show. We’ll do a feature-length episode in a week or so to discuss how we managed to bring down the Gogs and also however we fare in the FA Cup Fourth Round.

In this preview, lovingly compèred by Jack, you will hear:

• Jamie and Ed settle down for a cosy fireside chat in a London pub to dare to dream about springing a surprise…
• Ian takes a look at the history books to answer the question “Is Sunday’s game against Man Utd the biggest County have ever played?” (spoiler alert – no) 
• An opposition preview from No Question About That – a Man Utd podcast who fill the gaps in our knowledge about top-flight football and offer insights on our opponents.
• Reflections from Rhys on Eastleigh ("Rhystleigh"), who also fires up the Tactics Truck to analyse Man Utd's weaknesses.

At the start, Jack mentions our ko-fi - if you're able to throw in the price of a Bovril towards what we do, it'd be appreciated. If you're not, then that's fine, but do leave us a nice review or recommend us to a friend instead.

Contact us via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn with your thoughts. Thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme, and to all of you for listening.
