“THE WHINGER OF OZ!”
This, we were told by the stadium announcer, woz the anly Premyaa Leegue fixture which haz never had a goalless draw!
And so it proved after just 4 minutes when Tottenham’s Porro crossed for Solanki to heed home with long time injury returnee Sven Botman unable to stop him and he heeded past Dubravka in The Toon goal!
1-0 to them!
Just 2 minutes later and we were back on level terms in controversial circumstances! The baall hit Joelinton’s hand and the baall fell to Bruno who squared to Anthony Gordon on the left from us—and he let fly with a left footer into the far corner of the net!
After a lengthy VAR check we aall thought the goal would have been chalked off, but it woz given!
The scoreboard confirmed that Joelinton’s arm woz in a natural position when the baaall struck him, much to the annoyance of Sporz Australian manager Ange Pistecoglu <hope av sppelt that reet?) who shook his heed in disbelief on the touchline!
Gordon then missed a great chance from an Isak piss, but it woz well saved by Austin in the home goal—Then Isak himself fired agognisingly wide just after this!
We then doubled wor lead in the 38th minute when a Jacob Murphy low cross foond Alexander the Great (Isak) who had the simple task of toe-poking the baall ower the goal line for hiz SEVENTH Premyaa Leegue goal in a row! 2-1 to us at half time!
The ‘norf Landaners’ came oot in the 2nd half and tried in vain to find an equaliser az Dubravka made some great saves from Sporz chances!
Anthony Gordon woz then poleaxed in the box by Kulusevski and he lay on the groond with heavy bleeding from hiz nose, but the ref said ‘play on’ when a penalty should have been awarded! (He had to gan off and change hiz shirt and shorts, which were covered in ‘the red stuff’)
Harvey Barnes then missed a great chance at the end to seal the victory, but hiz shot woz saved by Austin!
After a ridiculous 13 minutes of added time the ref finally blew for full time after more Sporz pressure!
After the game their Aussie manager whinged on, sayin that ‘if all things were equal, we would have won the game!’—Completly ignoring/forgetting Gordon’s foul in the box! The ‘Whinger of Oz’ perhaps!?🤔 (sic!)
This woz wor SIXTH win in a row in aall competitions and the Magpies are certainly flyin’ high in 5th position in the table and just 5 points behind The Arse in 2nd place, 2 points behind Forest 🌳 in 3rd place and 1 point behind Chelseee in 4th place!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!🥳
Attendance: 61,293 (3,000 very happy Toon fans!)
