Exiles And Ben Are On The Up

IF THE season ended tomorrow, Ben Tozer believes that Newport could be more than content with what they’ve achieved to date.

The Exiles are comfortably mid-table and enjoyed a thrilling run in the FA Cup, knocking out Leeds and taking Tottenham to a fourth-round replay at Wembley – all a far cry from a 2016-17 campaign that saw them retain their League Two status on the final day of the season.

On a personal note, it’s also been a markedly more enjoyable experience for 28-year-old Tozer, who was left battling against anxiety attacks after falling out of favour with former boss Graham Westley.

Now restored as a regular fixture under manager Michael Flynn, the midfielder has a spring in his step once again and is proud of what he and his teammates have produced.
