It's another Ian Street match diary, but sadly without quite the same level of joie de vivre as last weekend. The "fifth Beatle" of the pod, Ollie, also makes an appearance - but neither of them find much to warm the soul from a frustrating and cold afternoon in Barrow. The podcast, like the NHS, remains proudly free at the point of need. However, …

Well, get ready for an Ian Street matchday diary extraordinaire, ably supported by Ed & Jamie, as well as an assortment of guest appearances, including Stu, Fraser, Ollie, the Dragons Lair podcast & more! Wimbledon still doesn't know what hit it. Anyone setting up a £2pm donation via our ko-fi account before the month is out will receive a mystery …

So near, but yet so far... Analysing that painful late, late defeat at Edgeley Park, Ed & Jamie are joined by pod debutant Alfie and regular contributor Ollie to question the officiating whilst still paying tribute to a battling performance that so nearly paid off. Ahead of Tuesday night's Fourth Division game against Morecambe, we also thank Dave …

The 1912 Exiles threw this one open to you - our wonderful listeners - to make sense of today's defeat to Mansfield. Some agreed with our view that today just needs to be dismissed as an off day against a quality side - others argued that this showed a lack of ambition, and wholesale changes are required. There were some strong words for the ref, d…

Our man on the northern beat, Ian Street, makes a rare foray even further towards the arctic to bring you a matchday diary from Harrogate away. In the middle of a dizzying start to 2024, Newport County find themselves just two points off the playoffs, with huge games to come in the next few weeks. But instead of feeling daunted by games against the…

In a highly unusual move, we're dropping an episode on a Saturday and bringing you another belting interview. In this one, Jamie speaks with Chris Kirwan (of the South Wales Argus) and Louis Cartwright-Walls (Media Manager for Newport County AFC) about being at the centre of the media storm during our FA Cup tie with Manchester United. They discuss…

Another 'pod of two halves' as we balance analysis of on-the-pitch matters with a broader look at other issues. Part 1 of this episode is a catch up between Rhys and Ed about the home matches against Notts County and Gillingham, with County demonstrating great 'bouncebackability' powered by Will Evans' scoring antics. Then, in Part 2, we speak with…

We were going to wait until after the Notts County game to drop an episode, but after THAT 3-0 win up at Walsall, Jamie demanded an emergency pod. So he dragged Ed out of bed on a Sunday morning, and with the help of Arnie's match day diary, they dissected that cracking away performance. Also in the pod: how can Newport cope with a tough run of fix…

#168 - Swindon win, and Newport City Women After 167 episodes, Ep168 marks a bit of a new era for the 1912 Exiles.... We are delighted to announce that we have partnered with talkSPORT to be a part of their fan network of podcasts, hear more at the top of the pod. The first half of the episode is an Ed (https://toot.wales/@DrEdBridges) match diary …

It’s been SOME week for Newport County. We beat Wrexham at home, we had Manchester United RATTLED (for 21 minutes), Huw Jenkins has formally taken over the club, and the Supporters’ Trust held its AGM. We also signed someone! So, no wonder this pod turned into a bumper episode. Jamie, Ian, Ed, and Jack all convened in the aftermath of that FA Cup g…

Yes yes, we know that there's the big victory over Wrexham to discuss – but we wanted to cynically capitalise on the extra interest around the Man Utd game, so we’ve created this big preview show. We’ll do a feature-length episode in a week or so to discuss how we managed to bring down the Gogs and also however we fare in the FA Cup Fourth Round. I…

Yes yes, we know everyone's excited for the potential trio of Eastleigh (a), Wrexham (H) and possibly Man Utd (H) - but before that, we've got an important trip to Doncaster which needs our attention. Who else would we send to this one but Ian Street? On his travels, he chats with Ollie, Stu, Fraser and even the Usually-Unlucky Amber Arnie - but pe…

A rare match diary from Rodney Parade, as Rhys & Ed hunker down at the back of the Hazells Stand for the FA Cup game against Eastleigh. Another 1-1 draw for Coughlan's side, in a game that County should have put away comfortably. Contact us via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn with your thoughts. Thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting…

Amber Arnie is back again with an away match diary - this time on the disappointment of two dropped points in Sutton, and his intact record of not reporting on an away win. After that, Ed interviews Eastleigh's U18s manager and Newport County fan Ashley Healey ahead of the teams' meeting on Saturday in the FA Cup. Oh, and there's a bit of belated f…

Did you miss us?!? We're back as promised with a wrap-up of County's three festive fixtures: Amber Arnie reports from the Cae Ras, continuing his run of only ever reporting on defeats. He'll soon be facing the dreaded vote of confidence... 😉 Rhys reflects on the Boxing Day comeback against FGR and what it tells us about both teams' survival hopes. …

🎅🏻 Nadolig Llawen i chi gyd!🎅🏻 The pod team are taking a short Christmas break, but hope to be back just before New Year's Eve with a roundup of the matches against Wrecsam, Forest Green Rovers and Crewe. But to keep you going over the festive period, our panel (Rhys, Jamie, Jack, Ian & Ed) got together for a bit of seasonal silliness. As well as s…

Honours even at Rodney Parade against the Mariners. Ian and Ed ponder how and why Newport and Grimsby cancelled each other out, and also zoom out to consider the bottom third of the table. Ed also gauges the mood in The Murenger from both home and away fans at the game. All being well, the Christmas Special episode of the podcast should 'drop' (as …

Jamie heads to Barnet (but not Barnet) for Newport County's FA Cup second round replay. Featuring beef with Wealdstone, comical own goals, and a tale of steam trains. A reminder to subscribe for future episodes - Ed will be at the Grimsby game on Saturday. We'll also have our Christmas special landing in feeds over the festive period. Stay in touch…

The legendary Amber Arnie brings us a match report from Prenton Park on what proved a frustrating afternoon for County, in a classic 'game of two halves'. Did the windy conditions play a part? Arnie manages to squeeze in #FloodlightWatch, a chat with Ollie, and even establishes a catchphrase for himself. See if you can spot it... All being well, Ja…

We've got something a bit different for you today... We were honoured to be nominated in the "club podcast of the year" category at this year's Football Supporter's Association awards, and Ian & Jack made the trip to London on Monday for the awards do.

Have you thawed out from that yet? 🥶 A frustrating afternoon of FA Cup action at the end of a gruelling week. Ed is on hand to offer a few tactical insights and find a silver lining to the cloud. Thanks to all our listeners who sent in comments, and make sure you read Mark Vickery's excellent match report from the game too. Stay in touch with the p…

Ian, Ollie and 81 other hardy souls braved the November cold air and the cruel mistress that is the M6, and were richly rewarded for their troubles. A fine win puts County within touching distance(!) of the playoffs(!!) and gives us plenty of confidence going into December's big set of games. As trailed, you can now buy a 1912 Exiles fridge magnet …

Rhys is in the chair, and is joined by Ian and Ed to discuss the shock result of the season with County beating table-topping Stockport and bringing to an end their 12-game unbeaten run. We heap praise on Graham Coughlan, we heap praise on Shane McLoughlin, we heap praise on James Clarke, we heap praise on the MND fundraiser shirt, we heap praise o…

"Got what we deserved: absolutely nothing" The bulk of this episode is another Ian Street match diary, this time from the trip to Field Mill. Ian catches up with a few faithful listeners along the way, but there were few positives to take from the game. The episode also hears Ed check in with Craig from the Mansfield Matters podcast, and get their …

Our thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme. And our thanks to you for listening to the pod! Support the show Hoste…

Ed and Ollie discuss the key points from County's draw against Walsall: Maxted's performance in goal, how Countryfile fared in midfield, and our best defensive / attacking partnerships. We also look ahead - briefly - to a tough week of away games at Notts County and Gillingham, and start a beef with football administrators. Stay tuned as the other …

We're very grateful to our Southwest of England Correspondent, Rich Cocksedge, for sending us his report of yesterday's defeat in Wiltshire. It doesn't make for positive listening - we've heard more upbeat Radiohead albums - but it's a good and fair analysis of a disappointing afternoon. We'll be back after Friday night's game against Walsall. In t…

How much are County riding their luck, how much are they making their own luck, and how much are they being affected by rank bad luck? That's the theme this week after a smash-and-grab victory over Colchester was followed by a decidedly sub-par performance at home to Harrogate Town. Ed is in the chair for this one. The episode features a post-match…

So, Huw Jenkins has been waved through to takeover Newport County. He’s been in this position before, at Swansea City. So who better to take us through the experience of supporting a Huw Jenkins-led football club than Swans fan, podcaster extraordinaire, and one of the premier voices of Welsh football, Elis James! We’ll be back with at the weekend …

After a tumultuous week off the pitch, Newport County get back to the bread and butter of fourth division football. Ian’s back on the northern beat - this time in the suburbs to the north of Manchester city centre. Ably assisted in the tactics truck by friends of the pod Stu, Fraser, and Ollie, Ian covers #floodlightwatch, #bovrilwatch - and the ga…

At the end of a big night in Newport County's history, Ed and Ian jumped straight onto Zoom to consider matters. With Trust members voting 455-8 in favour of selling a majority stake in the club to former Swansea City chairman, Huw Jenkins, what might happen next? What will he bring to the table, how will our club change, and what role will there b…

Sorry, I'm afraid we have to talk about that Bradford game... Ed is joined by Chris Kirwan of the South Wales Argus, who wrote an insightful article laying bare what went wrong on Saturday afternoon and the challenge County face to put it right before a challenging run of games. With helpful contributions from listeners along the way, we explore ho…

Ahead of a colossal week at Newport County, with the Trust voting on a change to the club’s ownership, one of the two prospective bidders has joined Jamie Harris on the pod. We’ve heard from Huw Jenkins in other media, but in a 1912 Exiles exclusive, Jon Pratt joins us to outline who exactly the investment partners are, why they’ve put an offer in,…

With the big Trust vote next week on a change to County's ownership, we've tried to unpick some of the key issues as fans grapple with the choices. Ed is joined by two guests with plenty to contribute. Nigel Dutson was Chair of the Trust from 2010 to 2013 so has sat in the hot seat and knows the difficult balancing act the current Board face. Garet…

Ian battled the M1 and M25 on the hottest day of the year en-route to Crawley, so you didn't have to... Along the way, he caught up with a few friends of the pod (yer Amber Arnies, yer Stus, yer Ollies) and praised the good value of Crawley's away ticket pricing. The record does not show whether or not he still felt the same at 5pm... As always, yo…

Jamie is joined by Ian and Ed to examine a busy week for County - games against AFC Wimbledon and Brentford dominate discussion, along with an evaluation of our transfer business. We also discuss County's asymmetric tactical approach, denounce joy thieves, and lavish praise on our industrious midfield. As always, you can contact the show via Twitte…

Ed is back in the chair and welcomes long-time listener Hamid to the pod for his debut. Hamid gives a review of the away hammering of Forest Green Rovers (and gives a thumbs-up to their chickpea curry pasty) whilst Ed praises the character shown in coming back to beat Sutton at home. And we continue the pod's love-in for Will Evans, who seems to ha…

After years of him asking us to call him on a Saturday evening, he decided to call us! An absolute delight to have Rob Phillips, one of the premier voices of Welsh football on BBC Radio Wales and BBC Wales Sport - and a 1912 Exiles listener at that - join Jamie Harris for a chat. A Newport-born boy, he shares stories about his time reporting on the…

Crikey, what a mad few days... We start with a panel discussion where Rhys, Ian and Ed wax lyrical about County's 4-0 demolition of Doncaster in the August sunshine. We heap praise on Will Evans, Aaron Wildig and Ryan Delaney, and ask whether we need to raise our pre-season expectations... We are then brough crashing back down to earth by a Crewe a…

Welcome to our 6th season of the 1912 Exiles podcast! A brief report from occasional contributor Stuart (blairinho - https://twitter.com/StuartB94181596) and son Fraser on our season opener at Accrington. How did we line up?

We continue our run of close-season special episodes, with Ian in the chair this week. In the first half, he catches up with Newport County royalty and all-round good egg Nic Johns to hear about life as a lower-league football photographer.

We continue our gentle summer stroll through off-the-pitch matters around football in Newport, with a genuinely heartwarming catchup with some of the County in the Community crew.

We were planning on having a quiet summer chatting about football shirts, but off-field business put paid to that. It's pre-season so Triallist 1 and Triallist 2 are making their debuts on the pod.

We hope to have a new episode out in the coming days about last week's AGM and Trust meeting, and implications for County - but in the meantime, we've watched closely the takeover of the Newport Dragons and Rodney Parade by David Buttress, which was confirmed on Friday. The deal could change radically the landscape of professional sport in Newport,…

With news imminent on County's away and third shirts for next season, Ed sat down over a pint in The Murenger with pod debutant James Oliver-House to discuss all things kit. What makes a good football shirt? Are proper collars still cool? What's the right shade of amber for a County shirt? What should VX3 be trying to do with next season's away and…

Where better to spend the hottest Tuesday night of the summer so far than at Rodney Parade in the Trust / Shareholders meeting?!? Ed and Ollie caught up afterwards to pick through the bones of the £1.2m loss, news on the ground lease, and speculation over potential future investment. Apologies for the audio on this one - Tiny Rebel was noisier than…

Another season is over, and there is plenty upon which to reflect. Rhys is in the chair for our epic end-of-season review, and is joined by Ian and Ed as they analyse Newport County's 2022/23 season in depth.
