That is sad.
As I said on another thread, I was there ten years ago when we beat them 7 - 1.
Nice place Chester, except for the ground and the gobby scousers that seem to work in every pub.
(got a feeling that's where Zamorra made his debut for us on loan and scored three)

Not much national coverage of this as they are not premier league. The football world is too busy with Pompey, John Terry and Wayne Bridge.

Why, what have they been up to?

Technically, these are different things. But a football club with no-one to play is a football club that has folded.
As a follower of Newport County since I was about seven years old, I feel the pain of the Chester fans. It's ironic that County will be finally reach the Blue Square Premier next season, after years of struggle to recover from their demise in 1989.
Counting chickens footnote:-
I know. Nothing is certain in football. But a 21 point lead at the top of the league, with only 12 games to play (and a game in hand), looks a very healthy place to be conducting a promotion push from.

TNS have put a bid in to play at the Deva Stadium next season as their own ground isn't up to Welsh Poremier league standard!
Very sad here even for Wrexham fans, who came very close to the same thing 4 years ago

The winding up order is being dealt with on 10 March.
Chester City fans are NOT backing the takeover / "rescue" plans that are being put together by a Danish consortium.

My grandfather played for and supported Newport County. He was born in Newport. He used to drive me to Newport, from Worthing, to see his parents, and would take me to Somerton Park regularly. He died in 1978, so did not live to see Newport win the Welsh Cup and gain promotion, both in 1980, and reach the quarter-finals of the European Cup Winners' Cup, in 1981. At least he was not around to see the club's demise. He would have been heartbroken.

A blow to our play off hopes that 3 point loss. 
It was ridiculous that they were allowed to compete in the first place. It was clear they weren't up to completing the season.
Nice work by the football league in basically forcing the conference to take them...
