FANS of Newport RFC, the Dragons and Newport County AFC got a first look at the new Rodney Parade pitch in all its glory yesterday.
Head of operations Mark Jones posted a number of pictures on Twitter showing the new £750,000 Desso Playmaster hybrid surface and the artificial 3G area surrounding the pitch.

The pitch was rolled out on August 10 after extensive drainage and irrigation work.
The first match to be played on the new surface will be County's League Two clash with Chesterfield on Saturday, August 26.
