"State of the pitch" Will be the most said thing by the commentators during FGR's match this weekend. Called the Severnside derby, although not quite a local derby. It's a short trip across the river for the vegans. Newport are up there in the mix at the top of the table, so an away win for us would be grand. We don't play until Sunday this weekend, so you get to enjoy some other more trivial football this Saturday... All eyes on Cambridge United, and Cheltenham Town. No points for either would be most welcome. KO 1pm

It's matchday lads โฝ Yesterday's results saw a win for Cambridge. We could use the 3 points today to reel them back in, and increase our lead over the chasing pack. Win, lose, or draw today though, and we remain in 2nd place. It's not absolutely essential that we win today, but it would be nice to break through the 50 points total. 'MON THE VEGANS ๐๐ค

Decent point, it's a tight division and you have 3 in hand and all the top 10 can make automatic. Will be an interesting run in, Carlisle's games in hand could also be interesting.

Pre-match stat to keep you all entertained in the build up to kick off...
Under five years of Coops' management, Forest Green have never lost a Sunday fixture ๐
Probably just jinxed that. Big loss on the way now ๐ฌ

STOP WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING BOYS AND GIRLS! Today's team sheet is here. Looking very strong again. Even our bench is smoking hot. Got to be another 3 points, right?

Bloody hell Newport! You do know that football pitches should be made of grass ๐คจ Disgraceful. Never even seen a county league pitch that shite. Today's pitch ladies and gentlemen. Looks like they've just run rollers over the mud to compact it...

We're off the mark just before half time. Alice band wearing Josh Davison collects the ball, outfoxes the defender in front of him, and stretches the Newport net... I think the port keeper was mired in the quicksand of the Rodney Parade goal mouth there

Half time at the bloodbath in the mudbath.
We're a goal to the good.
If Josh bags a second in the next 45 I'm gonna start wearing an Alice band meself.
UP THE ROVERS ๐๐ค

Jamma steals a shite backpass in the Newport penalty area... And the port keeper wipes him out. Jamma gets his revenge by slotting home the resulting penalty cool as you like ๐โโ๏ธ 0-2

If Coops or Dale ever leave us, first I'll cry, then I'll go down the high street shouting 'fight me'

That's all from an exciting day at Rodney Parade... Except the highlights package, which I will post when it's available later on Monday.
Apart from that, we've all got just enough time for a nice cup of tea and a sit down, before we go again on Wednesday, when we welcome Southend United to The New Lawn.
Keep yer eye on League 2 on Tuesday evening as well... Cambridge United play Cheltenham Town. 1st vs 3rd, with FGR 2nd between the two.
