lukerobins Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) Hi all, Newport County fan in peace. Just wanted to pop on your forum and let you know for those who are travelling down, that there is a pub called "The Excelsior Club" It's literally a 5-minute walk to the away terrace along Corporation Road. It has the normal range of beer, cider and lager on draught at competitive prices, in addition, it has a good range of bottled ales and ciders. We welcome away fans and its free entry. We do not serve food, however there are many food outlets within range of the club and we are more than happy to allow you to bring food onto the premises. I'll stick around the forum all week to engage with other fans. Any questions regarding parking etc fire away and i’ll do my best to answer. Regards Edited November 22, 2022 by Boycie Dimmu, Ramarena, 48 hours and 20 others 8 10 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Generally there is a lot of street parking around Rodney Parade, alternatively there are 2 multi storey car parks across the river (approx 0.7/0.8km) away from the ground. Friars Walk and Kingsway Car Parks. Really cheap as well. If anyone is coming on the train, Rodney Parade is about 10 mins away (walking) SKRam, Derby4Me, cstand and 4 others 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 If we don't lose, does @lukerobinshave to start the next match thread? Has @Diegoflown off to Qatar and forgotten to do this first? Spacehorse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukerobins Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 Morning all, Not sure about you guys but i enjoyed the game yesterday. Real scrappy affair. Only thing that annoyed me was the poor attendance. I guess switching to a Sunday and being poop in the league doesn’t automatically give you a big attendance for the FA Cup anymore. Thank you to all those who came down to the Excelsior Club, impeccably behaved and the barstaff were complimentary about the fans who came in. Good luck in the next round and good luck for the rest of the season angieram, Steve How Hard?, bimmerman and 14 others 1 6 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
