  • #239: Eight games in
    Sep 1 2025

    Six league games, two cup games, one win, two draws (inc. a penalty shootout win) and five losses. But what have we gleaned from those games about the Dai Hughes era at Newport County? Rhys is joined by Ian and Ed to divine what we can about this team, to ponder what's needed in the last 24hrs of the transfer window, and make some predictions about the month ahead. No spoilers, but basically Wake Us Up When September Ends.


    As always, you can contact us via your social media platform of choice, and you can also donate as little as £2 via our ko-fi page towards our running costs. Thanks as always to the Riverside Sports Bar (the home of great sport and burgers in Newport) for their support, and to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme tune. Our outro music is Virgo by Sean T.


    We'll be back soon with analysis of the Bristol Rovers game, and to explore what the WRU's desire to halve the number of Welsh rugby regions might mean for Rodney Parade and for Newport County. But until then: look after yourselves, look after each other, and above all – as always – Keep It County!

  • #238: Mark O'Brien
    Aug 21 2025

    It's another one of our #BigInterviews. Huge thanks to bonafide club legend Mark O'Brien for joining us. Rhys is in the hotseat as Mark chats about his time at the club. He joined under Graham Westley, scored THAT Great Escape goal, and was a feature of the side as it evolved under Mike Flynn to progress to two play-off finals and numerous cup runs, and this summer was appointed club ambassador.


    Mark speaks candidly about coping with having to retire at 27 through heart issues, and dealing with the subsequent PTSD and depression. It's raw and emotional, and we're grateful to Mark for sharing his journey with us.


    If you want to read more on Mark’s story, his book Game of Two Hearts: My Life in Football and Beyond is available from Amazon and Waterstones.

    We'll be back with a one-month-in discussion after the Franchise and Cambridge games. But until then: look after yourselves, look after each other, and above all – as always – Keep It County!

  • #237: Humber beginnings
    Aug 18 2025

    We're back with another episode for your ears as the August games come thick and fast. Jamie brings you Ed's analysis from our League Cup match at home to Millwall, before the first Ian Street match diary of the season, making his way to Grimbsy at the weekend. Featuring existentialism, pragmatism, and that all-too-familiar realism with sucker punch injury time winners.

    We've got a special episode coming later this week... keep your eyes peeled for that. We'll be back soon with match diaries and discussions on the Salford, Franchise, and Cambridge games. But until then: look after yourselves, look after each other, and above all – as always – Keep It County!
