Draw tonight, remember it's regionalized
Me- Oxford away, for fun. (They need to beat the Posh tonight of course.)

Newport inflicted Plymouth's first defeat of the season on Saturday so they are no mugs.
If Roberto plays, I fully expect defeat.

I went to that game in 1979 . Yes we had a decent side out that night but lost to lesser opposition as we normally did.
Not a great memory but at leased you could train back home midweek in those days.

Come have a drink up at Ridgeway
Next to Classic Cuts
This is Newport
We ain't even got a Pizza Hut
Newport, down the M4 motorway
Famous for cheese and chips
Not Craig Bellamy
I catch you in the kitchen
And hey presto
I'm gonna melt you if you've never been to Chepstow
We had 6 nightclubs, but most closed down
Visit Newport, It's still a punk town
Get on the dancefloor
Mind the smoking ban
You won't see Charlotte Church, or Gavin Henson
Big up to Paul Flynn, not the Welsh Assembly
That's in Cardiff so it don't mean shit to me
Shirley Bassey, she's just like the Queen
Not from Newport, and probably never been
See me up Baileys on Tuesday for the quiz
But you won't know because the truth is...
You're not from Newport
You've probably never been there either,
I bet you a fiver
Your not from Newport
You've probably never heard of Pillgwennly,
Or been to Lliswerry
Your missus is a nutter
She's got curly teeth and she walks with a stutter
If you wanna know, about our little town
Pay money at the Severn Bridge and come on down
Ride around all day on the Newport bus
On the X15 and read the Argus
We got a sports village and a velodrome
6 drive through Mcdonalds for your journey home
From Newport Stadium to Rodney Parade
The Premier Inn where you probably stayed
Don't have a Debnhams but we got T K Maxx
Once you've had Port, you never goes backs

Oh what will you give me?
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
Is there hope for the future?
Say the brown bells of Merthyr
Who made the mine owner?
Say the black bells of Rhondda
And who killed the miner?
Say the grim bells of Blaina
Throw the vandals in court
Say the bells of NEWPORT
All will be well if, if, if, if, if
Say the green bells of Cardiff
Why so worried sisters? Why?
Sang the silver bells of Wye
And what will you give me?
Say the sad bells of Rhymney
Cracking song that:

The draw sent a shudder down my spine. In HM RN at the time at sea. Listened to the game on BBC Radio.
We had a strong side out and in the finest of West Ham traditions, were embarrassed by distinctly ordinary opposition.

Nobes, Antonio, Snodgrass, Zabs, Reid. We've got enough experience there to see us through on a cold, wet night. But this is West Ham...

The last time we played Newport was 9th January 1979 in the FA Cup. Our team included Martin, Bonds, Lampard, Brooking, Devonshire, Cross and Pop Robson. We lost 2-1.
We did go on to win the FA Cup the next year though.

My home town - they put temporary stands in for the Spurs cup game a couple of years ago - Spurs apparently waived their share of the gate receipts as their ticket allocation was increased.
So there's no chance of G&S doing that so the WHU allocation will be about 1100
