A goalie whose wife has just gone into labour. Driving rain. Loads of those tin foil FA Cups. A goalscorer who was stacking shelves in Tesco less than two years ago. Now they're playing the champions in the next round. Have Newport County just achieved the perfect cup tie?

Michael Flynn is creating even more history for the exiles. What a manager!! Well done Newport.

Where do you start with that? Awful. After the best result of Pulis's tenure on Saturday comes the worst here. Boro couldn't have complained if that had finished three or four nil. Credit to Newport, they were brilliant.

The reaction continued on the social media sites…
That’s what this cup is about! They’ve deserved a tie against City, up the Port?

Feel for every single one of the Boro fans that have gone to Newport tonight.
550 mile round trip on a Tuesday night, stood in the pissing down rain watching this dross.
Should be refunded tickets and travel.

Newport Away. No words. Whether we wanted it or not, you have a duty to the fans who have travelled 6 hours down the road on a Tuesday night, stood in the pouring rain and got soaked through. No heart at all. Let the fans down @Boro pic.twitter.com/vs2lclipxR

Refund the 500 who travelled and sack Pulis. That is the only way of repaying the fans
