TEAM NEWS
Blyth returned to winning ways midweek with a 1-0 win over a strong Ilkeston side, with the winning goal being scored by Captain Robbie Dale (his 18th in all competitions this season and his 100th competitive goal at Croft Park).

News on the current injuries is still awaited but it is unlikely that Dan Maguire or Damen Mullen will feature, but there could be a return to the squad for Andrew Cartwright and possibly Alex Nicholson.

Our opposition in Saturday’s match is Ramsbottom United, who despite being bottom of the league have picked up a bit of form of late, with an impressive wins over Stourbridge and Grantham Town in January, so will certainly be no pushovers.

OPPOSITION MANAGER
Jon Robinson – Ex Ramsbottom United player, been in-charge of the club since early 2015.

DANGER MAN
Alexander Meaney – Scored three goals during the month of January, including two against Grantham Town in a 4-0 away win.
