Oakbank really need something from our home game against Locomotiv Spartak.

We also have a cup semi final against Astral F.C, however will have focus on the league game as not expecting anything from cup game unless we can take it to pens.

Sleights FC are home to Rich's Revelstone. Our record against them is awful so lets see how we do.

Having a stinker of a season frankly but some things are universal and beating Sleights is as sure as the Sun rising in the morning :wink:

Only 2-0 this time as they stick 5 at the back to avoid the usual goalfest.

Joking aside, be glad when the season is over, we've been poor.

4 straight defeats in a row pretty much ends any hopes of finishing in the top 3 as Broughton Rovers lose 3-1 away at Ajax United.

Stanton United are finishing the season well with a 0-2 away win at Vale United thanks to two own goals. Think the gap is too big to catch third place, but we’ll keep pushing.

Retro Palestra draw 1-1 at home to Brechin Vics.

I think, I was thinking too much about our record against Revelstone. Tried something different and it didn't work.

Good 2-0 win for Longfield at Wolf Town which means we crank up the pressure on Astral going into the last couple of games.

Strange week for Newport who draw 0-0 with leaders Astral but then fail to convert a stack of chances against Rossvale in the Cup and go out miserably 0-1 and miss out on a first cup final :|

Two expected defeats sadly although both narrow.

We HAVE to win last 2 games now and hope for help. The fact we haven't won since week 19 isn't filling me with confidence.

You could argue it did work, only losing 2-0 is a vast improvement on the usual scoreline :wink: :)

Draw for Astral. Suspect we needed to win that one as I don’t expect Longfield to drop any points and Astral won’t win their W31 fixture.. :(

Cheers

That's true it wasn't 4 or 5-0.
