THE TOON 1 NEE WHERE NEAR BRIGHTIN 1 *** PREMYAA LEEGUE 2023-2024

 Posted 'high noon bells' Sunday 12th May 2024

 


The 'Wor Flags' display before the game woz the best ever!

"A DISAPPOINTIN' RESULT, BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE DRIVIN' SEAT!"



NUFC just didn't get oot of the blocks yesterday and so we had to settle for a point and hope that we can win wor last 2 games v Moan U away on Wedinzday and Brentfaad away next Sunday!----IF we can dee this then we are guaranteed 6th place and a European place in eethaa The Europa Leegue or The Europa Conference Leegue!



It didnt start off well when Brightin took the lead in the 17th minute through Danny Welbeck heeder at The Leazes End, from a corner kick---and it woz 'aall oot attack' az we tried for the equaliser----This came deep into forst half stippage time when Sean Longstaff shot through the Brightin defence from an Elliot Anderson cross for a well desorved leveller! (I'm sure the stadium annooncer said that Dan Burn had scored?)

With nowt to play for, Brightin wasted time at every oppotunity and the poor ref did nowt aboot it!



We had chances to win it through Bruno and Isak, but it just wasnt wor day and sub Harvey Barnes aalso missed 2 glorious chances at The Leazes End!---2 points dropped and with Chelsee winnin at Forist in the late kick off meant that they are level on points with us, but with a much inferior goal difference!



Attendance: 51,997 (The reason that it woz a sub 52,000 crowd woz because Brightin couldn't sell aall their 2,000 tickets)

The Arse can dee us a big favour by beatin Moan U this afternooon at 'The Theatre of Muppets'  (Again, Moan U would gan level on points with us IF they win---with a much, much worse goal difference though!) 

Updated Munday They DID win, so it meeenz that if we draw at Moan U on Wedinzday we will definately finish above them, come the end of the season!---And on the same neet IF Chelseee lose at Brightin, then we will finish in 6th place!

Its still in wor hands!---We are still in the drivin' seat!

It woz boiling hot yesterday with clear blue sky and yoo could see the North sea 7 miles away on the horizon!




TYNESIDE UNITED!


A special mention to The Heedbangers of Gatesheed who won a penalty shootout at Wembley v Solihull in The FA Trophy final----This woz the reaction in The Bodega az Toon fans watched the winnin penalty gan in!
