Scunthorpe United 2-0 Farsley Celtic

Boxing Day, rolled myself into the car, with the help of the family. Definitely ate way too much the day before 🤦🏻 Farsley Celtic visiting us today for a first competitive game between the two. On the back of an 8 game unbeaten run, they’d have felt confident they’d have been able to come away something. We’re not top of the league for nothing, so after a first half where we had plenty of possession and no end product. They hit the post and a goal disallowed for offside. We came out with more purpose and wave after wave of attack ultimately resulted in us scoring 2 goals, plus we had one chalked off for offside too. Fitzsimons with a fantastic save to keep a clean sheet.
Alot are coming to the realisation that not all games will be pleasing on the eye and they don’t need to be. Main thing is we pick up 3 points to stay at the top. Fair play to Tamworth for sticking with us too at the top of the table 👏🏼👏🏼
Credit to all those that predicted the correct score - Dyl, Jack, Brad and all those that got involved on the day. Also good to see a crowd pushing 4500. Hope you all enjoyed it and get chance to go back. See you at Farsley where I’m hearing close to a 1000 tickets have been sold for Scunthorpe fans. So if you want to go, buy the ticket from the Farsley website and see you on Saturday. Remember no sales on the day.
