About Newport County

Newport County was formed in 1912 and spent its first seasons in the Southern League, taking the nickname the Ironsides from the town's steelmaking. In 1920 it joined the Football League as a founder member of the new Third Division. After relegation from the League in 1988 the original club folded in 1989, and supporters set up a successor, Newport AFC, which readopted the County name in 1999.

Somerton Park was the original club's home; since 2012 County have shared Rodney Parade with the Dragons rugby team. A 1980 Welsh Cup win brought their best-remembered run, to the European Cup Winners' Cup quarter-finals in 1981. The reformed club's seasons in exile over the border earned the Exiles nickname, and the 2013 Conference play-off final brought League football back. Cardiff City are the main rivals.

Founded: 1912
Ground: Rodney Parade
Capacity: 7,850
Nickname: The Exiles
