Well I was spectacularly wrong with that prediction then lol, I did think we'd have a big crowd for the trophy celebrations as these sorts of games usually bring people out the woodwork, so it was a bit of a surprise that it was only 570, but on the other hand, at least that meant it was only the hardcore, true fans enjoying the celebrations and not hordes of glory hunters, so its not all bad I guess :D

Fantastic celebrations of course, great fun, it was great 2 years ago too, but it was that extra bit special for me today with that trophy to celebrate with and everyone having a ball, another fantastic step on our journey up the pyramid, I know we've still got one game and the UCL KO final to come, but I really can't wait for us to kick off in a higher level in August now :D

Great month for Scott Joseph, 6 goals in 4 matches. All vital and put's him in pole position for the Player of the Month award, particularly if he scores again against the Cooks next Saturday.

Well done Scottie. ;)

Scott has had a great month, but Richard Bunting has been in brilliant form too.

I quite agree - after a tricky spell with injuries RB has really come good since returning to the side after missing the Holbeach game.

As well as our unsung hero Matt Finlay, I think Charlie Butt also deserves a mention for his improvement game on game.

Thought we would have seen a bigger attendance to be honest, but never mind.

Was a lovely day, not a classic performance by any stretch. Newport were a well organised unit, but I think our class showed in the end.

Brilliant scenes at the end during the presentation, that will live long in the memory. :)
