Re: Great day out. Poola thoroughly deserved the win. At one stage I thought that we might snatch a draw or a sneaky win but that would have been a travesty. Every time we came back into it you guys went down the other end and scored. Good luck for next season. Keep your feet firmly on the ground (it was nowhere near our first team) and you should be preparing to play in the Premier Division this time next year!!! -- Pontypool RFC Message Board

[> [> [> Subject: Kev, ....ahem......how shall I say this diplomatically??? How about "G-row up!!!" It's attitudes like yours that have caused so much damage to Welsh club rugby. Newport beat Newcastle by 50 points (and NINE TRIES TO ONE!!!) last season in the European Cup but the Falcons had half a dozen youngsters in the side. Great win - far better and far more meaningful than Poola's against Newp on Saturday - but no-one got carried away at RP. Luckily for you, your coaches are not as naive as you are, or as short-sighted. Send your first team boys down to RP to play ours and we'll see what happens!!! I hope Poola get promoted this season. Luckily I've got BOTH my eyes open!!!

[> [> [> [> Subject: Herman - you're getting a bit confused. Too much sun at the beautiful Park on Saturday perhaps. You are replying to Kev. who is also a Newport supporter if you read it properly. He's not a gloating Pooler man as you think. Mind you I believe you'd get a rude awakening if you brought your full strength team up here mid season as we play for the shirt not the pound note up here !! Just ask Swansea who I recall turned you over somewhat down St. Helens.

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: Sorry Hermann, I read the message wrong. Many apologies. It was great to see Newport at the Park and with about ten times the support that you used to bring up here. We have a lot of new players and it was good to see them playing with spirit. Be great if we drew you in the cup this year. Then it would be some match !!!

Ahem...excuse me, how can I put this diplomaticaly.....G-row up yourself. I was merely referring to a win against any Newport side being a good one and also the fact that we did play around 25 players ourselves.

Maybe if we both had first teams and nothing else who knows what would have happened. But walking around with my eyes closed allows me to dream when I sleep. A mere poor First Division outfit perhaps doesnt deserve to play down the hallowed RP but as I dream of promotion this year maybe my dreams will become reality.

And if I want to feel proud that we are doing well and beating Newport 3rds, well thats my perogative and who are you or anyone else to deny me that????

Now please grow up and go and play on your own website and stop responding to 12 year old kids on ours.
