Posted 'high noon bells' Friday 2nd May 2025

A BLUE STAR BANNER ON THE WEST ROAD!

The last few days have been great for teams who play on the banks o' the Tyne!

Forstly we saw NUFC beat 'The Tractor Boys' of Ipswich 3-0 last Saturday at SJP to move up to 3rd place in The Premyaa Leegue!

Then on Tuezday neet we saw 'The Bad Blue Boys' of Dunston beat Emley 1-0 in front of a excellent 903 crowd, with a last gasp goal, in The Northern Premyaa Leegue East Division semi final play offs! The final will be at Dunston again v Stocksbridge Park Steels this Saturday at '3:00 bells', where a crowd of well in access of 1,000 iz expected!

And then tooneet we cross the Tyne again to watch Newcasil Blue Star 'West End Boys' v The Blyth ‘Toonies’in The Northern Leegue play off final at their Scotswood groond---For a place in the Leegue Dunston are tryin to win promotion from!

Its a '7:30 bells' kick off and a huge crowd approachin 2,000 iz expected!

Last neet in The Premyaa Leegue 'The Friar Tuck Mob' of Nottingham unexpectedly lost 2-0 at home to 'The Beez Kneez' of Brentfaad!---A result that keeps NUFC in the drivin' seat for qualification to The Champions Leegue with just 4 games to gan!



Unfortunatleee we will miss the Dunston final az we are booked on the '3:00 bells' train πŸš‚ to King's Cross in London on Saturday--on wor way to 'Nee Where Near Brightin on Sunday at '2:00 bells' (Nee Where Near Brightin coz their groond iz 6 miles from Brightin in the middle of nee where!)

A win would cement wor 3rd place and distance worsels from the chasin pack!---It wont be eazy, but The Toon have won 20 oot of wor last 26 games!

So it's: "Howay the Lads!--Howay the Lads! and Howay the Lads!"
