Penalty heartbreak ends Scunthorpe’s promotion hopes 💔

Welcome to another vlog, today I covered Scunthorpes penalty heartbreak in the playoff semi final against Boston United in the National League North playoff Semi Final, hosted at scunthorpes home stadium the Attis arena.
No team could break the deadlock over 120 minutes, so all had to be decided by a penalty shootout.
This is the third consecutive playoff game that finished 0-0 after 120 minutes and went to a penalty shootout.
Alfreton Town 0-0 Boston United (Boston won 5-4 on penalties)
Chorley 0-0 Curzon Ashton (Chorley won 4-2 on Penalties)
Scunthorpe United 0-0 Boston United (Boston won 5-4 on penalties)
The final:
Brackley/Chorley vs Boston United
We go again next season stronger than ever

York city fan here. I really wanted Scunthorpe to get promoted. All the best for next season.

Thanks

Thank you, best of luck in the national league

Shields fan here some of your fans have been toxic all season saying you was going to automatically go up don’t see them talking now

[@jimmycburfield5997]

To be fair to the Scunthorpe faithful, they should be confident. Scunthorpe is a club that is naturally league one/two. I have supported Carlisle united since 1982. Scunthorpe have been good rivals and will be again. To be fair i’d see Scunny as being at least as big as Stockport County or Wrexham. I think the natural default position of Scunny fans is to be fun loving and self-deprecating. I didn’t see many Scunny fans bragging or bigging themselves up. They’ll be back.

At last a decent supporter of another club who can see the true picture ! Most non league clubs hate the fact ex league clubs come down and are the big fish so to speak , loved many away day up at Carlisle decent boozer too not far from the ground can’t remember the name though 😂 UTFI

Neither shields, full time club. Big time Charlie's, see u next year too. You too thought you would walk it, well short

Grimsby fan here. Gutted for you guys, was really hoping you would get back up to the National League. Next season hopefully.

[@ClaretAndBlueArmy]

Thank you, congrats on staying up. Hopefully we play you again never a bad game when we play

[@gparker7994]

@@ClaretAndBlueArmy Lets hope so. If it is any consolation, we are 100% useless at the moment.

[@pipelinecenter]

Why do numpties have to selfishly invade the pitch at the end of the game?. Stay in the stand and celebrate with your team so you can all enjoy the moment. I love my team but I'd never run onto the pitch as it spoils it for the majority of fans.

I only went on after all the trouble had dyed down, I went on to see Dion

Because we beat scummy scunthorpe. Your fans are dreadful. Expecting to walk this league. Evidently not

@AJxEDITZ_7 you didn't yesterday,you all left straight away

[@Darren.Reevell]

I was gutted watching the Boston fans and players celebrate after the pens. 2023/24 season has been one hell of a ride, we were on the verge of extinction, and thankfully have a board of directors who are doing the right things for the club. I am already looking forward to the 2024/25 season...and hopefully celebrating winning the league and promotion next April. #uti #iron

Most cruel way to end a match

[@amxgaming9153]

I’m a Boston UTD fan, have to say, you should have had a penalty, will watch it back when highlights come out. But the referee was abysmal, for both teams. Thought he got lots of decisions completely wrong… one more thing, when we invaded the pitch at the end one of your fans ran infront of me giving it the large telling me to F off and that. Thought that was wrong and all.

[@ClaretAndBlueArmy]

The referee was an absolute pisstake, shouldn’t even be a referee. Good luck in the final and i apologise for a few of our idiot fans.

[@amxgaming9153]

@@ClaretAndBlueArmy yeah, he was shit… I support Brighton and above Albion as well. Been to a few PL games, used to have a season ticket there for the first 3 seasons at the new AMEX ground when it first opened way back. I’m saying if that’s how they ref in the prem, I’m not surprised non league are this shit.

Hi Claret and Blue That was heart breaking for all Iron fans around the world PS: Don't use the masks again in your Vlogs......it freaks the viewers and my son out.

Hi gavin, Apologies if I freaked you or your son out, was a heartbreaking game as we was so close to the national league. Up the iron

[@gavinplant2241]

@@ClaretAndBlueArmy : Face coverings at football matches, not a good idea.....people and the police will immediately judge you.....and my young son wasn't to keen either. Just my opinion as a long serving football fan, but you have youth on your side so maybe you can dress as 'drag queens' or Clowns next time 😅 But aside of that you do some good work. Do you have the heart to continue in Tier 6 again next year ??? I live in France but i will be following the Iron again next year if we survive the fall out of this play-off defeat. It was the worst defeat i have experienced since i started supporting the Iron from the age of 11 years old.. and that was in the 80's 😳.....it was heartbreaking 😩 I need a rest now, but we go again next season and we must finish top this time. Best Regards from G and B from the South of France.
