Fair play to Newport, they've done extremely well this season!
All the best for the play offs!

With all due respect to JE I actually disagree with him there. They were taken over by a lottery-winning supporter last year and they've been able to pay money for players. At Diamonds that 'sinking feeling' had almost become ingrained at Nene Park, the sense that the good days were gone and weren't coming back. He changed all that.

I'd actually say his biggest achievement is neither of those, i'd say it was guiding our squad through the period after Dale's death.

he'll be snapped up by a league club come the summer.
