Posted from ‘high noon 🕛 🛎️ bells’ onwards, Saturday 7th March 2026
Because of yet anothaa crazy kick off time at ‘8 bells 🔔’ tooneet, The Geordie Times iz deein a rare ‘double heeder’ and are gannin to watch The Bad Blue Boys of Dunston take on Silsden from Yorkshire at ‘3 bells 🔔’ in a Northern Premyaa Leegue East Division match! ( Step 4 in the futbaall pyramid which iz 8 Divisions below the Premyaa Leegue!)
That game will finish aroond aboot ‘10 to 5 bells 🔔’ and then it’s a mad rush for the bus, for the 10 minute jorney ower the Redheugh bridge, arriving at The Toon Moose boozer (Town Mouse) in the Haymarket at hopefully ‘5:30 bells’ 🔔 at the latest for a few ‘gargels’ before wor FA Cup 5th roond tie v Man Citih!
Which Toon team will torn oot iz anybodys guess?— hopefully the one that beat Moan U 2-1 with 10 men on Wedinzday—-and NOT the one that lost 3-2 to Evaatin last weekend!—
Nick Waltemade iz expected to retorn after missin the Moan U game through illness, while Tino Livramento iz close to a retorn, but Lewis Miley, Fab Schar and Bruno are still crocked!
Jacob Ramsey iz banned coz of hiz ridiculous sendin off v Moan U!
Wor visitors were allocated 4,893 tickets, but, just like in the Leegue Cup semi final, they have failed to sell them aall —-again!
Az those unsold tickets cannit be resold to Toon fans, coz of segregation issues, there will be a below capacity crowd at SJP (Aall home sections are completely sold oot of course)
Extra time and penalties will follow if the game iz aall square—and it could be roond aboot ‘11 bells 🔔’ by the time the game ends! (Hardly any time for fans to catch trains 🚂 or the last busses 🚍 yem! (11:30 🛎️ bells’ for me! 🚌 ) So!—many will be forced to leave before the end, IF that iz the case!—-OR! —End up stranded if they stay til the end!
A full Geordie Times match report on both games will appear here in due course—-Az per usual, “Watch this space!”
