Newport County Playing a Pre-Season Friendly up the Valleys

Ton Pentre AFC will play Football League 2 outfit Newport County at Ynys Park on Wednesday, 6 July at 7.15pm in the Brian Lomax Supporters Direct Cup.

Supporters Direct announced the fixture.

The Supporters Direct Cup and SD Shield are annual invitational competitions held between community-owned football clubs to celebrate the role fans play in owning and supporting their own football clubs up and down the country.

The trophies are sponsored by Supporters Direct and are kindly funded by fans from all over the country that helped raise the money to purchase them.

This year the Supporters Direct Cup has been renamed “The Brian Lomax SD Cup” in memory of the former SD Managing Director, considered to be the “founding father” of the Supporters Trust movement, who sadly passed away last year.
