Agree entirely with JannerinCardiff looking at the map the same thing struck me as to how isolated we are compared to the rest of the teams in our league also what a difference it made with Morcambe winning the play offs Newport would have been almost like a local Derby for us coupled with Bristol Rovers relegation & Exeter failing again! we are even more cut off.
Face facts our geographical position has always been an issue & always will be
Hasn't always been an issue though has it. Sturrock and Holloway both managed to get very good players here.
I will admit the manager of the Greens probably doesn't get the pick of players that his opposite numbers get around London, Manchester and the Midlands but with good scouting we have had decent squads in the past.
Location is an excuse in my opinion.
