'I don't like seeing Newport lose' - former boss Flynn

Cheltenham Town's weekend victory at Rodney Parade saw Michael Flynn maintain his impressive record against his old club - but the former Newport County boss insists he does not enjoy seeing the Exiles lose.

Flynn is now unbeaten in six matches against Newport since he left County in 2021.

Newport had come into their latest Flynn reunion in fine form, but saw a six-game unbeaten run end in emphatic fashion as they were beaten 3-0 on Saturday.

Flynn made his name at Newport, first as a player and then as manager.

But speaking about his fine return from matches against his home-city club, Flynn said: "I don't even look at it.

"I don't like seeing Newport lose but I have to be professional and do the job I'm paid to do."

County are 16th in the League Two table having suffered a first league defeat since 24 January.

They face a stern challenge as they attempt to respond at high-flying Doncaster Rovers on Saturday (15:00 GMT).
