Mark Jones, head of operations at Rodney Parade: "Ground staff are extremely disappointed with his comments, very very unprofessional."

I'm not surprised. Sheridan's a fool is he thinks a ground sheet would have saved the match. Does he think it's a cricket match ?

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Safe journey back for all..nothing you can do about this ruddy bad weather!

What chance the game now being televised?

[danger19_80]

Very good chance I would think.

Depending on the drainage AROUND the pitch, an angled groundsheet cold at least have given the pitch a better chance.

Ofc the groundsmen aren't specifically to blame but it's clear to see not all that could've been done was done. Covering only half the pitch is amateurish, surely?

[Mike Graham]

Only 40 miles then home! In the Royal Oak for 5pm'ish.

They wouldn't show rovers if we were playing Barcelona in the champions league final

Any know the team for today? Was it announced.

Shame for the travelling fans, as always they get the short straw.

[Mike Graham]

Another clean sheet. We did well today despite this still being the crap team GB "built".

We didn't score though. Rhodes is obviously crap.

Rhodes never moved. Never chased the ball and did not once get himself in a scoring position.

Just not good enough young Jordan.

[Tom]

Thought Rhodes did ok today, at least he wasn't bullied by the defenders for once.

Rumours of Chris Brown Fashing it up and doing belly slides on the touch line may be exaggerated.

[Stuart]

Rubbish. Rhodes had no service whatsoever today.

Maybe the club can offer free travel to the re-arranged game or another away game for those who travelled down today?

Just got back a long way to go for a pizza, thought brown did well today but still no goal.

[Hasta]

At least we didn't forfeit.

Utmost respect for you and the other 1000 fans that made the journey to Newport today, nothing but admiration for you all.

I hope the club considers free travel for the rearranged date.

Our travel, champagne lunch, black truffles and caviar came to just over £1K.

Shall I send the bill to the Th'owd hag Mrs Chicklet ?

But even lambert said he was on the pitch this morning and it didn't even enter his head there would be a problem

Really feel for you and all the others that made the fruitless trip, and while I imagine you are frustrated and annoyed, I'm not sure what you base this opinion on?
