Newport County have revealed their Spytty Park training ground was broken into hours before their scheduled League Two clash with Exeter City.
The club claims a number of items were stolen during the break-in, including playing gear, medical equipment, TVs, computers, and personal items belonging to members of staff.
The incident will prove an unwelcome distraction ahead of Newport's trip to Exeter on Tuesday night, with James Rowberry's men going in search of a third straight win in all competitions.
