NEWPORT COUNTY

Rodney Parade (capacity 7,850)

Originally founded in 1912, Newport County reformed in 1989 after going out of business following relegation from the Football League. The club moved into Rodney Parade in 2012, and share the stadium with Newport RFC and Newport Gwent Dragons. It is actually the second oldest football stadium in the country, behind Preston’s Deepdale.

The stadium is a mix of seating and terraced stands, with the Bisley Stand being an all-seater covered single tier stand. Opposite is the Hazell Stand, which has seating at the back, and terracing at the front. The North or Town End is uncovered standing, while the South End of the stadium houses the players’ changing rooms. The capacity of the stadium is reduced for football matches.

Away fans visiting Rodney Parade are located in the Bisley Stand, with a typical allocation of just under 600.
