The club would like to place on record its disappointment in relation to the supporter(s) who launched two flares from the stand housing the club’s supporters on Saturday at Cheltenham Town FC. The incident which occurred following County’s stoppage time equaliser is one of a serious nature and one which will not be tolerated by the Club. If anyone who has any information or video evidence relating to the incident then they are requested to send this to office@newport-county.co.uk. The Club is currently working with Cheltenham Town FC and the Police to identify the culprits and impose relevant sanctions on the individuals.
The incident marred what was an afternoon of fantastic support by the supporters of Newport County AFC.
