Both managers were left frustrated after Newport County’s goalless draw against Port Vale at Rodney Parade. County have earned only one win in their last eight League Two matches, while Vale manager Neil Aspin was so fed up he resigned this morning. Cardiff-born Lee Nogan, a former Wales international and older brother of ex-Bluebirds striker […]

Matty Dolan had his dad rocking in his wheelchair on Saturday night and now he wants to freewheel rolling Newport into the last 16 of the FA Cup. The County midfielder was the toast of two cities – Newport and Newcastle – after firing home the goal that earned his side an FA Cup fourth round replay at Rodney Parade against his former club Middlesbrough next week. Born into a Newcastle United-mad family in Hartlepool, Dolan was schooled in football at Boro from the age of six to 21.

Mike Flynn has warned he needs fresh legs to prevent Newport County’s FA Cup heroics costing them any hope of promotion from League Two. Matty Dolan’s dramatic equaliser in the 1-1 draw at Middlesbrough on Saturday has brought County a money-spinning replay and a chance to make even more cash by reaching the fifth round of the competition. But with a league game to come on Tuesday at home to Port Vale, Flynn is desperate to sign more players to prevent their recent slide down the table making even the play-offs a distant dream.

Matty Dolan can’t wait to go back to his roots in the FA Cup this weekend – and show Middlesbrough fans the player they missed out on. The Newport County midfielder grew up at The Riverside, climbing through the ranks from the age of seven to 21. He made the bench for a few pre-season friendlies, including one against Atletico Madrid, but never got the chance to play for the first-team.

Two football men from the Pillgwenlly area of Newport, near the city’s transporter bridge, clash in the Emirates FA Cup fourth round on Teesside this Saturday.

Manchester Untied starlet Regan Poole will turn back the clock this weekend by returning to Newport County colours against Exeter City. Poole was snapped up as a 16-year-old by United back in 2015 after making 15 appearances for County. Now 20, he

Newport County are to help their fans with the long trip to Middlesbrough in the FA Cup by paying half their costs. The gesture is a thank you by the club for their supporters’ role in their giant-killing run that has taken them through to the fourth round. Manager Mike Flynn and his team earned a stunning 2-1 victory over Leicester City in the third round before being handed a fourth round trip to the Riverside Stadium on January 26.

Michael Flynn is an angry man. He is fed up seeing his talented Newport County team throw away chances of firing up their promotion chase. He is demanding a big reaction when County play Exeter City at Rodney Parade next Saturday. Manager Flynn was really fed up after County’s 3-2 defeat at Crewe Alexandra, a […]

Newport County defender Jay Foulston has signed for Merthyr Town on loan until the end of this season. Swansea-born Foulston, aged 19, made his debut during the Martyrs’ 4-0 EvoStik Southern League defeat at Wimborne Town. Merthyr are hard hit by injuries and only had two substitutes, both from the youth squad, against Dorset club […]

Vashon Neufville had never heard of Newport County eight days ago, but already the talented West Ham teenager is written into the club’s folklore. It was the 19-year-old wing back’s cross that earned his side the penalty that enabled Padraig Amond to hit the back of the Leicester City net and claim a 2-1 win over the recent Premier League champions to provide the biggest giant-killing act of the third round of the FA Cup last weekend. A week on, Neufville is hoping to back up his first game of senior professional football with his league debut at Crewe today (Saturday) as he begins to adjust to the extreme culture shock of swapping one of the top academies in British football for life in League Two.

Tyreeq Bakinson, one of the heroes of Newport County’s famous FA Cup win over Leicester City last weekend, has agreed a loan extension until the end of the season.

Mike Flynn is relishing a Newport old boys’ reunion in the FA Cup after his County giant-killers drew a fourth round trip to Tony Pulis’s Middlesbrough. Flynn – whose team knocked Leicester City out of the competition on Sunday – was hoping for another home tie or a second crack at a Premier League club. In the end, he drew neither. But a trip to one of the biggest clubs in the Championship and a chance to lock horns with one of his managerial heroes still has a certain romance.
