1912 Exiles

Our first big panel discussion for a while - sadly sans Rhys, but Jack does an excellent job of corralling Ian, Ed & Jamie to make sense of recent events. It's a long one, this episode, so here's what to expect and when in the episode (rough timings, depends on adverts length!):

• 1m10s: Intros
• 3m18s: Jamie's match diary and Colchester analysis
• 20m43s: Crawley analysis
• 28m10s: "Beat the pod" quiz
• 31m43s: Is the playoff dream over?
• 35m32s: A word about the Morecambe game...
• 47m46s: Your questions answered
• 55m32s: Player of the pod, shoutouts and beefs.

Ian will hopefully be back next weekend with a diary from the Grimsby game. In the meantime, you can contact us via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn, and you can support us at our ko-fi page should you wish. Thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme, thanks to Phil from Northampton for submitting the quiz, and thanks to all of you for listening - especially those who sent in questions for us to answer.

Another 'pod of two halves' as we balance analysis of on-the-pitch matters with a broader look at other issues. Part 1 of this episode is a catch up between Rhys and Ed about the home matches against Notts County and Gillingham, with County demonstrating great 'bouncebackability' powered by Will Evans' scoring antics. Then, in Part 2, we speak with Martin Calladine about his new book, No Questions Asked: how football joined the crypto con. The book is excellent, and comes highly recommended by your 1912 Exiles, and Martin gives us his insights into how poorly-regulated and often criminal crypto enterprises have preyed on football fans.

In the absence next weekend of County playing a proper game against an opponent who deserves to exist, we'll bring you another cracking interview in lieu of a match report; stay subscribed so you don't miss out. In the meantime, you can follow us on Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn and send us your thoughts and questions. You can also contribute a voicenote via our Speakpipe page or donate the price of a Bovril towards our running costs through our ko-fi account.

Thanks as always to Tinty & The Bucket Hats for letting us use Discoland as our theme, and to all of you for listening.

The big end-of-season special is here! Ian, Rhys & Jamie offer their perspectives on County's 2023/24 season, with Ed keeping order. We cover (approximate timings):

• Our summaries of the season (3mins)
• "Cocko, or Cock-go?!?" (8mins)
• The retained list (13mins)
• The best, worst and funniest games of the season (27mins)
• Player of the season (39mins)
• Trust matters (43mins)
• Shoutouts and beefs (47mins)

We mention our end-of-season survey, where you can tell us what you like and don't like about the pod. We also plugged our 1912 Exiles sticker packs, available at a reasonable price.

As always, drop us a line via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn. Thank you for all the support you've given us this season - and thank you Tinty & The Bucket Hats for continuing to let us use Discoland as our theme tune. We'll be back with some summer special episodes over the coming weeks.

With news imminent on County's away and third shirts for next season, Ed sat down over a pint in The Murenger with pod debutant James Oliver-House to discuss all things kit. What makes a good football shirt? Are proper collars still cool? What's the right shade of amber for a County shirt? What should VX3 be trying to do with next season's away and third kits? We discuss all these things and more!
A few links to things mentioned over the course of the conversation:

• Here are pictures of some of James' shirts that we discuss
• We mentioned this poll about mocked-up County kit designs
• Cardiff Classic Shirts - back-of-shirt sponsors of the new third kit
• The story behind Ajax's 'Three Little Birds' shirt
• Ed mentioned Llantwit Major's amazing 2023/24 shirts
• The Newport County kit archive

This is the second in our series of close-season content. Over the next few weeks we will bring you transfer analysis, a chat with County in the Community and shine a spotlight on how Newport City are getting on down at Spytty Park. Stay tuned for more, and in the meantime drop us any feedback via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn.
