Glyn Thompson is having an excellent season at Newport County. The former Hereford United and Fulham keeper has let in just 15 goals in 31 starts for the Conference South leaders.
"When I was with Fulham we got into the Premier League, but for me personally it doesn’t compare to this season," he told the South Wales Argus.
"We’ve been unstoppable, whenever people have questioned us in the press we’ve shown a reaction and we’re so close now, we just have to get over the line."
Newport defeated Braintee 1-0 yesterday afternoon and have gained 76 points from just 31 games. Their goal difference is +52.
A bumper crowd of 2117 watched the game with children entering for free with an adult.
"Hereford had a crowd of only 1,200 for their last League Two game, that puts into perspective how special our fans are," Thompson explained. "They give us a massive boost and teams just don’t like coming here."
Conference sponsors BlueSq have already chosen to pay out on County's promotion. The pre-season 7/1 shots will cost the firm £20,000 in winning bets.
