Bradfaad are in the horrible light pink strip!
“BANTAM WAIT!”(104 years and coontin!) 🥊
Bradfaad haddint won at SJP for 103 years before this game—and their lang wait for a victory on Tyneside now stretches to at least 104 years after a comprehensive 4-1 win for The Toon!
With the backin of some 4,900 noisy ‘Bantams’ who filled the entire Leazes End top tier, they couldn’t dee anything to help their team az The Toon dominated from start to finish!
The goal sequences were az follows:
17th minute: The breakthrough came after NUFC dominated the opening proceedings when a Anthony Gordon shot at the Leazes End deflected nicely for Joelinton to fire the baall ower the line! 1-0 to us!
VIEW FROM THE MILBURN STAND BALCONY
19th minute: With wor Leegue one opponents aall at sea, we doubled wor lead 2 minutes later when a great through baall from Bruno foond Osula, who calmly hit a shot that went through their goalie’s legs to put us 2-0 up!
The Bradfaad fans tried to lift their team, but the class difference between the two sides woz just too much, az we went for number 3!
It didn’t happen in this half, but there were more goals to follow in the 2nd period!⬇️
75th minute: After dominating again az we attacked the Gallowgate goal the 3rd goal finally came when Bruno foond Joelinton who slotted the baall past Walker in the visitors goal! 3-0 to us!
79th minute: At last the Bradfaad faithful had sommik to cheer when a defensive misstayk let in Andy Cook (a boyhood Toon fan!) and he fired home with a shot that went in off the crossbar to give them a slim hope of a comeback!
87th minute: That ‘slim hope’ woz extinguished 8 minute later when Osula got hiz 2nd goal of the game, when Harvey Barnes crossed the baall from the byline —-and from point blank range Osula forced the baall ower the goal line to banish any hope of a comeback from The Bantams!
Excuse the boxing 🥊 pun, but the Bantam ‘wait’ for a win here extends to at least 104 years! ( Their last win at SJP woz in 1922!)
Attendance: 51,706 (4,900 Bantams who cheered their team throughout the game!) 👏
We watched the draw for the 4th roond in The Bodega, dreading the though of a lang distance midweek away tie at the likes of Swansea or Brightin!
But thankfully we got lucky again!— A home tie against Sporz to be played near the end of Octobaa!
