Match Day Thread Newport (A) EFL Cup

Football continues with our favourite competition. As we've generally treated the cup competitions with disdain in recent years, preferring to stay in tha battle for mid table annonymity, Dean Holden's decisiion to take them seriously to keep the competetive edge moves us out of our comfort zone. But we have players to blood and settle in, so hopefully we'll be looking for the win.
Newport have had a rough time by all accounts pre season, so nothing guaranteed here, but I'd hope for a win albeit by the minimum
Newport 1 Charlton 2

 

0-3

 

Tonight will be interesting to see the team we put out, and possibly an indicator of the strength of the squad.

 

Quite a strong line up.

 

The second team basically.

 

Goal Kanu.

Like Saturday, on the stroke of half time.
Wem ber ley!!

 

Come on England!

 

Oi!

 

Don’t forget we have to cheer on Somalia , Albania , cockroachia…… etc etc etc

 

1-1

We've had 75% possession. Getting mugged.

 

You made one up!!!

 

7 corners for them but none for us.

 

Now we're 2-1 down embarrassing.

New owners, same old Charlton

 

2-1 Newport. Get the finger ahrt lads

 

3-1 now. Feel for the travelling faithful

 

3-1 now. What a shower.

 

Dear dear dear ….. same old

 

What a load of s***.

Anything can happen in cup games, of course, but I'm not interested in that. This result exposes the 'strength' in depth we have.

 

Absolute toilet mate.

 

Charlie out !
