“MUCH BETTER!”
NUFC put in wor best display since we drew with Man City to progress to the qwaataa finals of the competition!
Chelseee fielded a completely different line to the team that beat us 2-1 in the Premyaa Leegue just 3 days orlier—-and paid the price!
Joelinton rattled the post at The Leazes End orly on az we went on the attack—‘aall guns blazin’!
We finally took the lead in the 23rd minute when Sandro Tonali foond ‘Alexander the Great’ (Isak) who hit a sweet shot past Jorgesen in the visitors goal!
The lead woz doubled 3 minutes later when a free kick taken by Lewis Hall foond Isak who crossed the baall to Joe Willock, who heeded goalwards. Anly for Chelseee’z Disali to slice the baall into his own net, with Kelly bearin’ doon on him!
HT 2-0 to us!
If aa remember correctly Joelinton hit the post again, this time at The Gallowgate End in the second period and we held on for a much needed victory!✌️az The Pensioners (their original nickname) tried in vain to break doon wor defence with The Pope in the Toon goal makin some excellent saves!
We have now just lost one home game since last January— not bad for a team that hazzint been playin’ well!
The draw for the next roond woz watched on by anxious fans after the game in the Leazes End boozer, in fear of gettin’ one of the ‘big boys’ away in the next roond!
But there were loud cheers when we drew The Brentfaad Beez at SJP—wor 3rd home tie in a row!—in other words ‘The ๐ beez kneez’ az the Cockneys would say!
Attendance: 51,934 (4,883 very loud Pensioners at the start of the game—just half that number of very quiet Pensioners, who had stayed til the bitter end!)
