The 2019–20 season was Newport County's seventh consecutive season in Football League Two, after missing out on promotion at the 2019 EFL League Two play-off final. It was Newport's 67th season in the Football League and 99th season of league football overall. The 2019–20 season was suspended on 13 March 2019 due to the Coronavirus pandemic with Newport 15th in League Two.[1] The League Two season was formally terminated on 9 June 2020 with Newport having ten league matches unplayed.[2] Points per game was subsequently adopted to determine the final League Two table with Newport County rising one place to 14th in the league.
