"BACK ON TRACK AGAINST THE TRACTOR BOYS!"
After wor horror show at Villa last Saturday, NUFC needed to boonce back against relegation certainteeez Ipswich!
'Steady Eddie' woz back in the dugoot after missin 3 games through illness to huge applause from the crowd!
The game kicked off and within 2 minutes a misplaced pass across the box from Dan Burn, foond Delap who shot just wide at The Gallowgate End----"Time to wake up lads!"
Bruno then 'scored' at The Leazes End but woz deemed to have fouled Palmer in the visitors goal and so it woz chalked off! (A very harsh decision!!)
Ipswich's Johnson then got a yellow card for divin' in the box!
Isak then sent a heeder ower the bar and then a back heel a minute later went ower the bar az well, az the half dragged on!
Johnson woz then send off in the 37th minute when he held onto Isak on the Miburn Stand wing--- hiz 2nd yellow card--and so they were doon to ten men!
Sandro Tonali then hit the top of the right hand post, az we laid seige to the Tractor Boys goal and we wondered if it woz gannin to be one of those games!?
Az stoppage time approached Jacob Murpy woz fouled in the box, but the ref waved 'play on'!
VAR got involved and told him to gan to the monitor to have a 2nd look!---20 looks later! and he eventually pointed to the penalty spot to the relief of the crowd!
Alexander the Great (Isak) took the kick and put the baall to the right of the Ipswich keeper, who tried in vain to get hiz hands to the baall! (Isak's 22nd Premyaa Leegue goal of the season!) HT 1-0 to us!
The 2nd half woz played aalmost entirely in the Gallowgate End of the pitch az we looked to improve wor goal difference!
It finally happened in the 56th minute when Tripper sent a pin-point cross from the Milburn Stand side of the pitch and Dan Burn woz on hand to heed home from very close range! 2-0 to us!
The thord and final goal came in the 80th minute, when 'super-sub' Osula heeded into the net from a Trippier corner from the Milburn Stand side! 3-0 to us!---final score!---and relegation finally conformed for Ipswich! (Sven Botman had come on in the 83rd minute, to huge applause from the Toon fans after lang torm absence through injury!)
The plus 3 goal difference cancelled oot the 4-1 defeat at Villa and this woz wor 6th win in 7 games, to propel The Toon back up to thord place in the table with a goal difference of plus 22, which could be pivotal in the race for the Champions Leegue, with just 4 game to gan!
Attendance: 52,171 (Includin an impressive 3,000 Tractor Boys in level 7 of The Leazes End! The vast majority stayed til the bitter end to applaud their team and vise versa!)
Footnote: It's a funny old game!
In wor last home game we hammered Palliss 5-0 and then went to Villa and were hammered 4-1
Villa then went to Wembley yesterday to play Palliss in the semi finals of the FA Cup and (aye yiv guessed it!) were hammered 3-0!
