THE TOON 3. THE COTTAGE PIE BRIGADE 0 —- Premyaa Leegue 2023-2024

 Posted ‘5:20pm πŸ”” bells’ Munday 17th Decembaa 2023 (2 days late, but this IZ The Geordie Times, wot did yoo expect???πŸ€”)

PINK SKY AT NIGHT!---GEORDIE DELIGHT! (But wot are aall those white dots? (Look closely!) πŸ‘½Aliens perhaps?πŸ‘½

“I’d walk a million Miley’s for one of your smileys !”

It woz built up to be a tough game az Fulim had won their last 2 home games 5-0, while we had lost 3 in a row!

However! we shouldn’t have worried az we were on the front foot from the word go az we attacked The Leazes goal in the first half!



The sequence of events were az follows!

14th minute Schar gans doon holdin his leg and haz to be replaced by Krafth

22nd minute: Fulims Jimenez does a kung foo kick on Sean Longstaff andcrecieves a yellow card!

Surely a red I thought?— a VAR check confirms this and after lookin at the pitch side monitor the ref pull oot a red instead!

36th minute: Joelinton gans doon with wot looks like a hamstring injury and iz replaced by Lewis Miley! (Oh no!- not another one to add to the crocks list!)

despite playin 10 men we just couldn’t make the breakthrough az chance after chance went a beggin and somehow it woz still nil-nil at the break!


Crowd celebrate Lewis’s goal

57th minute: The breakthrough finally came at The Gallowgate End, when Bruno weaved through the Fulim defence to thread the baall through to Lewis Miley and he made nΓ©e misstayk az he shot across the box! At 17years and 200 days the youngest player to score for NUFC in a Premyaa Leegue game!  The huge smile on his face said it aall! Smiley Miley celebrated wildly (sic!) (1-0 to us!)

Smiley Miley! πŸ€ͺπŸ˜€πŸ˜ƒ

64th minute: Callum Wilson iz clattered in the box, ref waits, baall falls nicely to Almiron who hits his shot into an unguarded net! (Good decision by the ref not to immediately blow for a penalty)   (2-0 to us)



82nd minute: Dan Burn πŸ”₯ bundles the baall ower the goal line after hiz initial heeder woz blocked by Fulim goalie Leno (3-0 to us)

The win lifted us back up to 6th place and within touchin distance of a Champions Leegue place!



Attendance: 52,035 (1,400 or so Cottage Pies!) ( Fulim play at Craven Cottage!—-get it!???πŸ€”)
