What’s so international about the Gateshead International Stadium??? Did it used to be an airport?

If ever they do a remake of Only Fools  and Horses, Graham Stuart is a shoe in for Mike the barman.

Fisher is Mike's surname in OFAH in case anyone's confused.

Has Beckford ever commentated on a live match before?

Gateshead really should have scored today.

in the US it’s live on ESPN+, with Martin Tyler and Stewart Robson.  I feel I am missing out on the Beckford anger, but it makes good reading 

What's their take on it so far?

Charlton generally in control, might be something for Gateshead if they can get behind our back 3, who’ve been caught out a couple of times…..GH handled themselves well so far.  Charlton not putting an end product to the possession.  That’s pretty much the story

If Gateshead could finish....

Second half -  Gateshead have a shot from distance, Hendo parries, and the rebound hits the side netting.

How the hell are we still winning?

Let off there. We are going to need at least one more to get through I fancy.

Reckon Elewere has done ok for an 18yo, not an easy position for a youngster 

Agreed. There's a reason why few CBs are regulars at 18

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear..

Deji loses out in a foot race, but the ball goes out for a goal kick and the Gateshead forward was offside anyway.

Agreed.  He’s up against willing runners who are 5 or so years older, perfect game for him to be thrown into and he’s held his own.

See we’ve started the second half the way we mean to go on 🙄

DJ tries to play Gilbey down the right, but he's blocked and we have a free kick by the RH touchline about 10 yards out.

ForeverAddickted

Jesus wept lino... That shove was right under his nose!!!

If we keep defending like this we'll get hammered by a decent side....

up_the_valley

Great shot Gilbey!

aliwibble

Lee takes, it goes very deep and Gilbey spoons it over

ricky_otto

Great commentary from Beckford “that speaks volumes by itself” stop talking you helmet.

ForeverAddickted

Yes Gilbey... Thats exactly how Gateshead have been shooting, thank you for demonstrating how shite they have been at it

CAFCTrev

Some shocking defending against a Conf North side. 

Garrymanilow

Lee is not having a good one. He's exactly the kind of player who should be taking this game by the scruff of the neck

Me too. Let’s kill him.

‘Speaks volumes’ seems to be Beckfords buzzword for this half.
