Five points on...Newport County

Andrew: "After ending their 25-year exile from the Football League by winning promotion in 2013 under former Spurs hero Justin Edinburgh it has been a tough few years for County. The past two years have seen them engaged in season-long struggles to avoid relegation but they have been on the up and up since current boss Michael Flynn replaced Graham Westley in March last year. County were 11 points adrift of safety when he took over but the hometown hero masterminded seven wins in the last 12 games of the season to seal the ‘Great Escape’ from relegation in the final minute of the final day in May.
