2012 FA Vase Final Dunston UTS 2-0 West Auckland Town

Filed under Admin, FA Vase by tuppence on May 14, 2012 at 10:14 am {no comments}

Andrew Bulford scored twice to secured a first-ever FA Vase trophy for Northern League Division One side Dunston UTS.

They beat divisional rivals West Auckland Town in The Wembley Final in front of a 5,126 crowd.

His first goal came in the 32nd minute, when he connected with Stephen Goddard’s pass, and he completed the scoring in the 79th minute when he fired home from close range.

Bulford also set a new record in helping Dunston win the final, as he ended up scoring at least one goal in every round of the competition, including replays.

His scoring feats included a hat trick against Blackwell MW and in total he managed a very impressive 16 goals (if my counting is correct).

West Aukland who finished the season as Runners up in the Northern League, one place above Dunston, had plenty of the game but luck deserted them in front of goal.

So Dunston UTS are added to the list of winners which now stands at 30 different teams since its inception in 1975.

The winners collected £15,000 from the FA Prize Fund while West Aukland also received £7,000 as runners up.
