1912 Exiles

A short but to-the-point episode after that disastrous, calamitous collapse at Brunton Park yesterday. We're grateful to listener Andrew Morrison for reporting on a day that many will want to forget, but which is likely to loom large over the run-in to the season. Surrendering a two-goal lead against the worst side in the whole ruddy Football League is the sort of result which can really cast a long shadow...

We'll be back next weekend. Do drop us a line via your social media platform of choice if you want to come on for a chat. And please remember that you can throw us a few shekels via our ko-fi account if you like what we do and want to help us pay the bills.

We remain grateful to the Riverside Sports Bar (the home of Welsh sports fans) for their support of the pod, and to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme tune. Our outro music is Virgo by Sean T.

Be good to yourselves and each other, and above all Keep It County!

On the basis that you've probably all heard more than enough from our regulars over recent weeks, we threw this episode open to our wider listenership and encouraged people to come forward who'd not been on previously or not been on for a while. We then used it as a chance to 'take the temperature' of the fanbase and gauge people's views on: whether the season has bettered expectations, which players have stood out (for good or ill), and how people feel about Nelson Jardim as Head Coach. A huge thank you to those who got in touch. As a result, in this episode we hear from:

• Antony
• John from Tinty & The Bucket Hats
• Iwan
• Simon
• Marc
• Rhys
• Hamid

And there's a bonus bit of Ian Street magic, as he quotes from Karl Ove Knausgaard to strains of Handel - keeping it highbrow as always... Apolgies by the way for some slightly shonky audio in the second half of the pod - Ed forgot the good microphone so had to record on a potato. You can chip in towards a better mic by dropping a few pennies into our ko-fi account!

Buoyed on by last week’s day out at Rodney Parade, our man on the northern beat, Ian Street, accompanied this time by the Good Doctor Ed Bridges, takes us on another whimsical tour of a northern town, while fitting in Newport County’s 1-0 reverse up at Grimsby. 

It wasn’t all for naut though. Featuring World War Two history, a chat with the lovely people running Message in a Bottle, and the well-travelled, long-suffering Ollie, who has racked up 4,200 miles this season to date following the port.

Podcasters assemble! For only the second time ever, all five of the podcast team managed to attend the same game (albeit we only saw Rhys from across the pitch, as he waved to us from the nice seats in the Bisley Stand). And what a lovely day we had! A few jars, some decent scran in the Indoor Market, bumped into plenty of familiar and very friendly faces, and then watched an easy stress-free 3-0 home win in the sunshine. Can it always be like this, please?

Ian is on microphone duty, dutifully logging the day and keeping order - but with input along the way from yer Jamies, yer Mad Jacks and yer Eds - as well as from our youngest fan(?) and burgeoning vlogger Iwan (do give him a follow).

Oh dear, oh dear... Back-to-back away defeats to northern sides around us in the table. We bring you Ian's match diary from County’s drubbing at Accrington, and then we listen in as Ed catches up with our old friend Phil In Northampton who made the trip to witness Saturday’s defeat at Chesterfield.

A mini pod, with Ed offering some pre-match and post-match words either side of a fine win against Gillingham - and getting some thoughts too from Ollie. Three great goals from Bobby Kamwa, an easy three points, and surely some breathing space now as we enter into spring.

After a short break from pod action, we're back - Jamie is in the chair, and is joined by County blogger Mark Vickery to garner their insights on defeats to Cheltenham (H) and Doncaster (a). They discuss the need for a bit more anger from this team, Kyle Jameson's many second chances, and a possible lack of leadership. With big games coming up against the likes of Gillingham, Accrington and Harrogate, how can County address their growing list of weaknesses?

Ed and Ollie are the men behind the mic for this one. Under the clunky title of "Responding to questions", we do a cut-and-shunt pod. In Part 1 over a pint in the Riverside Sports Bar (the home of Welsh sports fans) we consider how County responded to the questions posed by Bradford being reduced to ten men early in the first half on Saturday. Then, in Part 2, we give some snap analysis after Tuesday night's Q&A session with the Trust and with County chairman Huw Jenkins...

Was a clean sheet, a point and retaining momentum in #FightbackFebrurary worth the lack of entertainment value or attacking ambition on Saturday? And what does the open meeting tell us about the club's relationship with the Dragons, the long-term plan for our academy youth, or the future of Nelson Jardim? We consider all these points and more!

We'll be back in ten days' time to review the Cheltenham and Doncaster games, hopefully with a full panel. In the meantime, make sure you join the Supporters' Trust if you're not already a member.

The boss is back - Rhys brings you some on-the-whistle analysis of the (lucky?) win against Carlisle. It sees County rise to the dizzy heights of 14th, having taken 13pts from their last five games. We also hear from Amber Arnie about Saturday's unexpected 3-0 away thumping of Crewe Alexandra, on what surely will be the best away day of the season.

We'll be back next week with a longer-form episode taking in the Bradford game, a few other views on where County find ourselves, and also next Tuesday night's Trust Q&A. If you fancy coming on, drop us a line through your social media platform of choice.

Isn't it nice to get back to winning ways and have a bit of daylight between County and the drop zone? Ed was on duty for the visit to Rodney Parade of Morecambe in a crucial Fourth Division six-pointer. Before, during and after the game he caught up with various friends of the pod to reflect on current issues and on last weekend's win against Barrow. Many thanks to Dai, Ollie, Dave and pod OG Rhys for their thoughts.
