Happens all the time. I'm more bothered about how easily the free kick went in.


You've got to wonder about the concentration level.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Devitt did it against Mansfield once and our fans lapped it up. Come off it.

Gavin Gunning did similar in every game he played for us......facing the goalkeeper and standing in his way and mirroring his movements when setting the wall up.........he even did it against us on opening day.

Amond absolutley "owns" McKeown and Macca knows it...he is proper in his head..end of. But as others have said, Podge was nowehere near by the time the free kick was struck and Macca didnt move despite the ball appearing to be pretty close to his side.

No issues with Podge doing what he did.

Quoted from MarinerRob
I always admired Amond, especially for what he did at Town, however his antics today in front of Mckeweon where he kept jumping up and down in Mckewan's face stopping him arranging his wall was not good. I don't know what the rules are for what he did. He might not have broke any rules, I don't know, but it was definitely morally wrong and cheating in my eyes. And from that free kick we lost the game, although on the whole we didn't deserve anything today. I would hope that no Town players ever stoop that low to try to win an advantage. My wife says I'm too principled but I would rather be like that than to resort to dirty tactics like Amond did today and the likes of Akinde Pen.


I agree with you, very poor behaviour. But the ref is the judge, even if he was a poor one. Macca has to look after himself, he should have bullied Podge back. Honestly not why we lost the game, though, in my opinion. We simply didn't turn up compared to our performances at Lincoln and Macclesfield. Newport looked poor in general and went to ground way too easily, but that's what some teams do. But we were poorer. Newports main strength in my view was that they didn't allow us any space at all, were always faster to every loose ball, and there were a lot of those, our passing was awful. The Wes Thomas sending off was a joke and summed up the ref's poor officiating. But we lost the game, they didn't really win it. McKeown let Podge in his head, totally did what he said pre-match he didn't want to do.

Amond got inside Maccas head he knew he could wind him up. Not the first time he as wound Macca up either.

Part and parcel of a strikers make up he did a job on Macca simple as that.

It hasn't changed my view of Podge at all, he did what he thought was right for his current club.

That said I don't like playing the cynical way Newport did, and am another one who can't remember Amond ever doing that for Town, but am sure if he had I wouldn't of complained at the time.

What irritates me is that it worked. That was weak. I think the free kick was
saveable and by the time it goes in, Macca hasn't really moved. Concentration broken or not, we've been done by a fairly common trick and we need to be much stronger than that. Macca will surely be annoyed with himself today for being 'done up' like that.

Seen it on tv Macca should of ignored him and sorted his wall out.
I thought he should have saved the free kick it wasn’t that great.
