1912 Exiles

Ian sat down with Rhys and Ed to dissect the home win against Gillingham. They talk Omar Bogle, Yma O Hyd , praise James Waite and Joe Day, and continue the Priestly Farquaharson love-in. We then pick out highlights from the Meet The Manager event with G-Cock, and answer your questions about goal-line technology and who'll go down from Div 4 this season. As always, whether you agree or disagr...

A full-on panel discussion, expertly chaired by Ian - with Ed , Rhys and Esme offering their insights. We cover the recent cup games, discuss the Stockport defeat in depth, take some listener questions, and preview the Gillingham game (with help from the Gills In The Blood team). Towards the end of the pod, Ed also gives a shoutout to the Tinty & The Bucket Hats world cup single  - be sure to...

In this episode Ian & Rhys discuss the start to the Coughlan era and look forward to our next three games. Ian swears he won't mention JR again - but can he stick to it? There's only one way to find out... As always, whether you agree or disagree with the panel, drop us a line via Twitter , Facebook or LinkedIn with any feedback. And after a bumper month where we've had to fork...

Three games into the new era: five points, two clean sheets and unbeaten. We'd all have settled for that, wouldn't we? Ed catches up with a County legend - "Phil in Northampton", who tells us about adopting Newport as his team, following from afar, and how we looked during the draw at Sixfields. If, like Phil, you're at an away game and want to tell us about it then drop u...

New manager, new era - but the same consistently brilliant podcast experience courtesy of the 1912 Exiles. Ed and Jack were at the back of the Hazells to watch the first match of Graham Coughlan's tenure as County manager, and found a lot of positives in the team's industry and pragmatism. We also hear from Caz at the GasCast pod on what we can expect from the new gaffer. We love hearing...

We're back with a bonus round! An excuse really to hear Ian Street's excellent punditry on the managerial situation add in a dash of... poetry?! We listen into your  voice notes (gratefully received!) and serve up a few small updates also. As always, whether you agree or disagree with the 1912 Exiles lads, drop us a line via Twitter , Facebook or LinkedIn with any feedback. And having cl...

After news broke on Monday that James Rowberry had been relieved of his duties, our panel swung into action to determine whether the Board acted too swiftly or not swiftly enough, and what needs to happen next - who should we appoint, do we need to change the club's wider philosophy, and how much responsibility should the players shoulder? Rhys wrangles our panel of Jamie , Ed and Jack  as th...

SPOILER ALERT - Not much positivity pants wearing this episode after a 1-0 home loss to Rochdale but @ianstreet67 (who made the journey from Leeds) is going to try his best in his own indomitable spirit! We read out all your submissions & comments just to gauge the sentiment and oh boy, is it miserable... What's your take? Follow us on Twitter @1912exiles to join the conversation. Support...

Jamie makes the trip to Swindon (bumping into Martyn Phillips ) for the latest Tuesday night awayday adventure.  What do we make of the more pragmatic version of Rowberryball? Is Will Evans still chasing down defenders, long into the night? What are we giving the boys at half time which once again undid some very solid work in the first 45? It’s our 100th episode of the 1912 Exiles podcast - while...

We were going to do a big "10 league games in" analysis, but due to factors this episode is just Ian and Ed talking through County's home draw against Carlisle and pondering how much time the result will buy for James Rowberry to get this side up and running. We do so with a huge debt to the Newport County hive-mind who helped to flag some talking points, so a huge thanks to those o...

Even the most positive podcast in Newport struggles to find much cheer in this one... After a dismal home defeat to Barrow, Rhys caught up with Ed and Ollie to sift through what went wrong and what needs to happen for things to improve. They address head-on the 'Rowberry Out' calls, consider whether experience is what's needed to steady the ship, and ponder whether Ed is changing hi...

Ok, so perhaps the word 'cheerful' is not the right phrase here... Jamie Harris made the trip to Hertfordshire on a wet Tuesday evening for our League Two match at Stevenage and has kindly provided his audio diary. Look out for his Eeyore impression post-match. Back with another episode and a full panel soon, but in the meantime please contact us via Twitter , Facebook or LinkedIn with a...

A short episode to keep you going - not sure yet whether we'll be able to muster a full panel next weekend, so instead we bring you midweek match reaction and a preview for Saturday. First up, a big thank-you to debutant Esme for stepping up and providing a review of the Spotafan Trophy game at Exeter City - enjoy listening to her thoughts on the match and what selection headaches the win mig...

Anyone heard from the "Rowberry Out" lads, lately? They seem to have gone a bit quiet... What a pleasure to bring you reports on two victories - each magnificent in their own way. First up, we handed a 1912 Exiles debut to young Ollie Allen to talk us through the 3-2 victory against Portsmouth in the Second Round of the League Cup - and he doesn't disappoint. Then it's over to...

WE WON A HOME GAME! Following the joy and relief of three points at Rodney Parade against Tranmere, Rhys sat down with Ed , Ian and  Martyn to unpack what we can deduce from our opening five games. We also take advantage of Martyn's massive football brain by having a 'deep dive' into the tactical approach taken by Rowberry this season and examine what's worked and what hasn&apo...

In what we fear may become a regular feature this season, Ian managed to find some positives from a Newport County defeat. On a  day Ian described as being "hot as Hades", the Exiles failed to come to the boil, so Ian's daughter's first County game was something of a disappointment. We have two home games coming up next week, against Salford on Tuesday and Tranmere on Saturday,...

Pfft, well that was a bit rubbish, wasn't it? In an exclusive* audio diary, Ed reports on Flynn's return, with input as well from special guest Simon . Like James Rowberry, they muse on how Walsall managed to escape Rodney Parade with all three points despite not mustering a single chance on goal. And in the second half of the pod, we hear from the Oak Road Hatter about how strong a side...

Big match on Saturday, innit? First home game of the season, Flynn's return, and against one of Div 4's big summer spenders. To get you in the mood and to give you some intel on the opposition, Ed caught up with the super-talented Tom Lines of One Pod Beyond to find out how Walsall have fared since Flynn took over in January and what we can expect this weekend. We'll be back soon wi...

County got their first point and first goal of 2022/23 with an opening day draw at Sutton. We bring you a live audio diary of the day courtesy of Ian and Jamie , who get a bit philosophical at times, segueing seamlessly between the meaning of life and Will Evans vs Adam Lewis at left-back. Only on the 1912 Exiles pod, eh? Enjoy the episode and we'll be back during the week with a preview of t...

The 2022/23 football season is very nearly upon us (no, really). Rhys , Ed , Ian and Jamie get together to discuss the opening day trip to Sutton, to figure out whether James Rowberry wants to play Total Football, and to take their best guess at where a final loan signing might fit in. As is tradition, Ian also leads the way with bold predictions and Ed makes the case for killing off a beloved cha...

We're baaaaaaack! Did you miss us? After a well-deserved hiatus, Rhys is joined by Ed and Ian to go through the big headlines of County's close season. We explore: How the squad is shaping up Fixture release day The new kit Pre-season games The Trust AGM In the pod, we talk about the importance of building the Supporters' Trust membership and we would urge you to join here if you&ap...

You've already listened to Part 1, right? Here in Part 2, our panel - Ian , Rhys , Jamie & Ed - go through the retained / released list, discuss where we think the biggest gaps are for next season as things stand, and take questions from you, our wonderful listeners. We've released over 30 podcast episodes this season, and we hope you've enjoyed listening to them as much as we&a...

As trailed, we have brought together Ian , Rhys , Jamie & Ed for an End Of Season Special. Because it's a special, we really stretch our legs on this one and have a lot of fun. This episode is Part 1, where we give our verdict on the season, pick out our highs and lows, and discuss the grounds we're most excited about visiting next year. In Part 2 (out tomorrow), we go through the re...

It may not have had anything riding on it, but that didn't stop Ian making the long trip down from Leeds and Rhys making the not-quite-so-long-but-still-a-bit-long trip from the West Country for Newport County vs Rochdale on Saturday. The team may have ended the season with a whimper rather than a bang, but your 1912 Exiles have been with you every step of the way and we're not giving up...
