“ANLY ONE MORE WIN!”
Wot a weekend it’s been! NUFC were the anly team in the top 5 to win, with aall the rest dropping’ at least 2 points!
This meeenz, in effect, that we need just ONE win from wor last 2 games to gaaurentee a top 5 place and a Champions Leegue holy 😇 grail spot!
(Forest play Chelseee on the last day of the season, meenin that one of them (or both) will drop points, so we cant finish lower than 5th IF we win just one more game oot of the 2 left v The Arse and Evaatin)
It took The Toon a grand total of 112 seconds to open the scorin’ at The Leazes End, when Sandro Tonali hit a left foot shot into the roof of the net at very close range, from an excellent Jacob Murphy cross! The roar to celebrate the goal woz deafening! 1-0 to us!
There were forthaa chances to increase wor lead from Isak, Barnes and Murphy, but it remained 1-0!
And then the decisive monent of the game!---Chelseee'z Nicolas Jackson elbow Sven Botman in the face and wor number 4 gans straight to groond!
At forst the ref gives a yellow card but iz advised by the VAR officials to take anothaa look!
He gans to the monitor at The East Stand halfway line and after several looks resinds the yellow card and upgrades to red and wor visitors were doon to 10 men in the 36th minute!
There were several more misses from The Toon before the half time interval, includin 2 heeders by Dan Burn which went narrowly wide! HT 1-0
The Chelseee OAPs (so caalled az their original nickname woz 'The Pensioners'!) came oot with aall guns blazin in the 2nd half and yoo would have thought that we had 10 men and not them, az the went for the equaliser!
'The Pope' in wor goal made a couple of excellent saves to deny The OAPs az we watched the clock nervously ticked off the minutes!
The killer goal, however, woz scored by NUFC in the dyin embers of the game when, bang on 90 minutes a Dan Burn cross foond Bruno, who looped the baall ower in the Chelseee goal to clinch a 2-0 victory az the Gallowgate roof nearly lifted off the groond!---Bruno then ran to the nearest corner flag and uprooted it and waved it to the jubulant fans!
By this time most of the Chelseee 'faithful'? had departed and heeded back to 'The Central' (station) to catch the train back to King's Cross (London!)
The Premyaa Leegue table now makes brilliant readin' az we are now just 2 points behind The Arseholes in 2nd place!----A win at The Emirates next Sunday would lift us into 2nd place above them----who would ever have believed that could happen!?
Attendance: 52,200 (3,000 Chelseee!---very quiet at the end!)
Footnote:
Mikel Arteta saaid after The Arseholes draw at Livaapoool yesterday, that they havvint lost to a 'top six' team for 2 years, despite the fact that we have beaten them THREE times aalready this season alone! (Are we not a 'big six' side sittin in 3rd position in the table?---obviously NOT accordin to The Arseholes ARSEHOLE manager!)----Hopefully 'Steady Eddie' will pin this comment on the away dressin' room waall, when we gan there next week, to give us even more insentive to win!
