Welcome to management, Mr. Beattie.
Thought Newport played like a team possessed (of commitment, energy, and belief) and, as F19 suggests, could well have bagged more. Maybe it was the euphoria of their first game back in the League but Newport made Stanley, except for a couple of brief periods, look very poor. What most impressed was that it seemed to be their new signings who did most of the damage; amazing what you can do when you win the lottery.
I also think their MoM summed up the match perfectly:
Newport striker Chris Zebroski told BBC Radio Wales: ... we've really given it 100% straight out the blocks, I think everyone made it difficult for them... "We kept pressing their back four from the front and that caused them to make a lot of mistakes, and in the end I think me and [Christian Jolley] ran their back four into the ground."

After that performance, things can only get better!
