Before our last home game against Stevenage at Rodney parade news came out that Newport county have made a request to the EFL to play our next 2 home league matches away from Rodney parade, the first of which being tonight against Bradford at the Cardiff City stadium! Our form of late has taken a dip with 3 wins in our last 12 games in the league has seen us slip down the table to 6th in the league. Of that dip our home form has been a huge concern! At the start of the season Rodney Parade was a fortress but of late our home form has taken a turn for the worse with our last win coming just over a month ago against Grimsby. Many fans have put this down to the state of the pitch and I agree the playing service at Rodney Parade has become unplayable, it's effected our promotion push as at Christmas we were top and now were just about in the play offs and a move away from our home in my opinion is the best thing to kick start the push for promotion. The pitch at Rodney parade has effected performances and our form. We love to play passing, attacking football and the pitch has stopped that with the style of last season which failed returning or as we on look back in amber call it "hoofball". The pitch at the Cardiff city stadium is in immaculate condition as we move there on a temporary bases. It has seen Cardiff city sky rocket up the sky bet championship into the play off spots and also Wales' male national team play there.
