John Sheridan: 'Newport County will be tough to break down'


Joe Jones

John Sheridan has claimed that Newport County will provide Notts County with a stern test on Saturday.

The Welsh club appointed Graham Westley as manager in early October and, since then, have improved in form.

A win at Meadow Lane on Saturday, providing other results go their way, will see the Exiles climb off the bottom of the League Two table.

"They are in a good vein of form at the moment," Sheridan told the Nottingham Post.

"They have a manager who is an excellent appointment for where they are at this moment in time.

"I think he will get them out of there and they'll be safe come the end of the season.

"He knows these leagues, he knows what is required and that's why I am expecting a really tough game.

"They've produced some good performances and they were excellent against Carlisle (a 2-0 win last weekend).

"I am not taking anything for granted. They will be tough to break down. They are fighting for their lives, but they are going the right way about it.

"He will have them working hard and Graham's a good manager. They are organised and they'll be difficult from set plays too."
