BY Liam O’Brien Blyth Spartans welcome Guiseley to Croft Park on Bank Holiday Monday in their fourth home game of the season. Lee Clark collected his first point(s) as Spartans manager in a 0-0 draw at Bradford (Park Avenue) on Saturday and hopes it will act as a building block in the club’s difficult start to the campaign.
