AFTER ending their Morecambe misery last week, Newport County AFC aim to consign their home hoodoo to history with victory over Barnet tomorrow.

The Exiles have won just one League Two fixture at Rodney Parade this season – the 3-0 thrashing of Luton Town in November.

And County fans have witnessed just two home wins in the league in the last 12 months, with the other success also coming against Luton in March 2015.

Manager Warren Feeney has enjoyed wins at York City and Morecambe since taking over from John Sheridan but his only home league fixture was the 2-2 draw with Dagenham & Redbridge a fortnight ago.

“It’s not something I like dwelling on,” said the Exiles boss.

“I said before the Morecambe game that I don’t believe in hoodoos.

“At the end of the day it’s a football pitch with two goals and I tell the players to just go and play.

“I thought we should have won the Dagenham game with 15 corners after a poor start.

“But if the boys keep putting in performances like they have done then we’ll have no problems, we’ll win games.

“It’s a good bunch here and we just need to turn our home form around to climb up this league,” he added.

“They’re doing the hard bit at the moment and that’s winning games away. That’s the sign of a good team.

“We’ve got to get our home form right but it’s not something that I look at – I just want them to go and play and express themselves.”

Feeney will have to watch from the stands tomorrow after being handed a one-match touchline ban and a £500 fine by the Football Association.

The Northern Irishman admitted using abusive and/or insulting language towards the match officials following last month's 1-0 defeat at Leyton Orient.

Defender Danny Holmes is confident that County can turn things round at Rodney Parade and says it’s important that they give the home fans something to cheer about.

“Obviously the majority of fans come and watch us at home and we’ve been playing really well – we should have more wins at home,” said the right-back.

“It’s a good opportunity to get that win at home and hopefully we can kick on from there because we have got a good few home games coming up.

“Even with the results not going pour way at home the fans have always stayed with us.

“I think they do appreciate the way we’ve been trying to play but it’s all about results at the end of the day and we need to pick up a few results at home.”

Tomorrow’s game sees County show their support for the Football v Homophobia campaign, organised by Pride Sports.
