Here we go then. COYB

 

Pipe, Sandell and Zebroski start for Newport

 

Anyone got radio commentary - I can't get Radio Bristol out here and the DAB station doesn't have the footy?

 

CJS normally calls it for those of us without radio coverage. BBC are always about ten minutes plus adrift.

 

....if they bother updating at all...

Where is CJS? I thought he was on here this arvo?

 

im here, lost track of time. been in the garden with the kids.

so whats going on then??

 

Newport almost scored

 

just put radio on and nearly heard o'toole score an own goal!

 

I do like the word 'almost', all of a sudden!

 

Good atmosphere

 

Harrison has a crack at goal wide of goal

 

Cheltenham 0-1 Plymouth

 

I see the teds are being overrun with only 30% possession. No goals yet tho'
