In the heart of the city; Newport County AFC is a professional football club competing in League Two of the EFL. Nicknamed the 'Exiles'. County originally formed in 1912 due to some football-fanatic steelworkers who had migrated from Birmingham and weren't interested in rugby which was the sport of choice for the locals. Almost entirely made up of Wolverhampton Wanderers fans, the steelworkers opted for amber as their team colour and began playing on the fields opposite their workplace, Lysaghts. Fast forward 77 years and a club with so much history found itself bankrupt and falling out of existence. Following the sad demise of Newport County in February 1989, a new club, Newport AFC, was created by a group of County supporters three months later. The intention was to play at the highest level possible in the Football League pyramid, with the ultimate aim of returning League football to Newport. The new club was founded, financed and run by supporters. Its motto was “Football with a Future”. Ten years later, the name Newport County AFC was adopted
