About this listen
"In this episode, we break down a frustrating night for Newport County as they suffered a 2-0 defeat away at Swindon Town. Despite a resilient first-half performance marshalled by manager Christian Fuchs, the game turned on two decisive moments in just three second-half minutes.
We discuss the major talking point of the match: the ignored penalty appeal for Tanatswa Nyukuhwa just moments before Swindon's Fletcher Holman opened the scoring in the 63rd minute. We also look at the unfortunate own goal by Joe Thomas that doubled the hosts' lead and effectively sealed the result.
The episode features a deep dive into Christian Fuchs’ post-match comments, where he labelled Newport the 'way better team' despite the scoreline. With the Exiles now sitting 21st in the table and facing a tough run of fixtures, we ask: what needs to change to secure League Two safety?"
