Michael Reindorf has offered them nothing. Looks like a second failed loan and he'll surely be released.

They have had a fairly hard start but now play six of the nine teams above them in the next month or so including three of the bottom 4. If they are still bottom after that I fear for them

Former Wales striker Iwan Roberts says "you have to start worrying" for David Hughes' future at Newport County as the Exiles' League Two struggles go on.

Newport slipped to the bottom of the table after defeat by Swindon Town on Saturday continued their dreadful run of form.

County fans aimed critical chants in the direction of chairman and owner Huw Jenkins during the Swindon loss, Newport's 10th in their past 11 games in all competitions.

Newport are back in action on Tuesday when they make the short trip to Cardiff City in the EFL Trophy (19:45 BST), before potentially key league games at 20th-placed Accrington Stanley next Saturday and at home to Cheltenham, who are 22nd, seven days later.

Roberts says he has concerns over the job security of Hughes, who left his role in Manchester United's academy in May to take the reins at Newport.

"Bottom of League two, five points from 11 games, one point in their last nine games, one win from their last 20 in League Two with no wins in 11 at Rodney Parade," Roberts told BBC Radio Cymru.

"They've got the worst defensive record in League Two and they've got two huge games coming up against Accrington Stanley away and then Cheltenham at Rodney Parade in two weeks' time.

"But you have to start worrying for Dave Hughes' job as Newport County manager."
