Newtown AFC vs Carmarthen Town OFF

With the big freeze threatening to get worse over night Newtown AFC board called for an early pitch inspection at 2:30pm today, they felt that this time would best represent the possible conditions for our important home clash with Carmarthen. WPL referee believed the ground to be to dangerous to play on and has cancelled tomorrow's game.

After Wednesday nights late postponement  and tomorrows game being cancelled disappointment is flowing through the club but negotiations with Prestatyn have brought some good news as our next home game is now just next week on Tuesday the 7th of February. Newtown AFC vs Prestatyn Town in the League cup k.o 7:30

Game OFF
The League cup game against Prestatyn Was called OFF after Referee Bryn Markham-Jones deamed the goal areas as frozen and unplayable. A WPL referee had given a green light for the game to go ahead earlier in the day after a 12:30 pitch inspection. But as the lights faded and the temperature dropped there was no way for the game to go ahead. Conversations are now taking place to rearrange this fixture that is poised at 1-1 with a place against Bangor in the next round up for grabs.

League Cup Result (1st leg)
Saturday 21 Jan 2012
Prestatyn Town 1 - 1 Newtown Afc
J Fisher-Cooke 28'          62' Callum Wright
In a game dominated by strong wind and rain, both sides took advantage of the elements in a proverbial game of two halves. Prestatyn held the upper hand up to half time and held the lead thanks to Jon Fisher-Cooke's 24th minute header.
Former Robin Ross Stephens also saw a speculative 30 yarder almost catch Newtown Keeper Nick Thomas off guard before hitting the woodwork, But Steve Blenkinsop nearly levelled on the stroke of half time when he just failed to connect with a Gareth Partridge cross and then fired over the bar from a shot on the turn.
In the second period the wind gained more strength and blew 3 Newtown corners into the crowd.
But returning midfielder Callum Wright hit the crossbar with a rising drive and then produced a clinical finish after a strong run.
Seasiders keeper Jon Hill-Dunt made two good  saves, first palming a Nick Rushton shot around the post and tipping a goal bound effort from Jamie Price over the Bar as the Visitors finished the game with their tails up.
The Second Leg is to be played Wednesday the 1st Febuary 2012 at 7:30 at Latham Park. With a chance for the Robins to progress to the next round and a game gainst Bangor City waiting, the game promises to be a lively affair.
