 Pennock was critical of the methods of Farnborough's manager and owner, Graham Westley, and as a result was one of relatively few first choice players that did not leave Farnborough with Westley immediately after the Arsenal game.After two years with Carmarthen Town, Pennock joined Newport County in October 2005.He broke his leg at the start of the 2006–07 season which ruled him out of matches for the rest of that season.
