smogsterking the Inspirati 2,490 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Good tactics by us Leeds will have a false sense of security for Saturday. I will also be counting any time the Newport keeper catches the ball as a shot on goal for us. Link to post Share on other sites
borobaz 147 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Hope the players offer to reimburse these fans because this is embarrassing. Saying that, everything Newport have done tonight has come off. It's one of them magic games lower League teams have in the cup. Wouldn't be surprised if they got beat 4-0 in League 2 at the weekend.

Uwe 3,545 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I don't recall us having an attempt on target. that's because we haven't. We’ve had one shot on target over the two ties so far Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,347 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 in American football they'd call that goal a "pick play" with one Newport player stopping friend from running with amond. I think it's from basketball originally? :) Link to post Share on other sites
ladyspite 385 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Remember also, this isn't a one off, Newport already drew with us at home and burton have beaten us. well we also taken 6 points from the best team in the leauge. So will not surprise me if we beat Leeds Link to post Share on other sites
Tudders80 674 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Well after the first 45 I thought I would never see such a shocking half of football for a long time. It took 15 minutes to prove that theory wrong Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_Moose 387 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Feel sorry for those who travelled to the game. Should be able to get compensation for the trauma they've suffered. Link to post Share on other sites

Changing Times 12,347 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 we played a lot better than this or being gifted 2 goals would not had been enough against the best team in the leauge..... Are West Brom the best team in the league? If we hadn't been gifted the two goals we'd have lost. Clearly we played better than this but we weren't brilliant in that game either.

thomas 501 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 We are not going up and this team needs to be taught a lesson stick everyone of these on the sidelines against Leeds and put out under 21s because they lazy b..tards arent going up anyway. I want too see passion and fight not words i associate with this team, west brom was a fluke becuase of how bad there defending was. Link to post Share on other sites
Changing Times 12,347 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 It's nice for Newport County though, a few quid in their pockets and some nice memories of a good cup run. Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I think WBA is the best team in the leauge, as people still rate us top 5 based on squad then WBA is the best team and Stoke second ;) well you get gifts because you do the follow trough job. If the players wouldent have played for Pulis they would have stopped playing after 2-1, instead they actually got better in that game. Besides we gifted them 2 goals too more or less Link to post Share on other sites

RonBoro 44 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I love this club and Will continue to do so........but man I die a little inside everytime I have to fight myself to justify I don't deserve entertainment and happiness just because I support this current team. Maybe our best days are past us, Maybe everytime a decent player comes around it cost us a fortune until it doesn't, Maybe we have entered an era where Football is a business for People more then a Sport for the fans, Maybe I'm just a bad fan who doesn't understand this current football landscape anymore, Maybe.....But I wont stop Following the Boro.

Duvel 2,446 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I'm not bothered that we're going out really, we were never gonna win the cup or get past Man City. Its not good seeing us get out battled as much as this though, if we were gonna limp out of the cup why didn't we leave all our key players at home and bring the kids.
