Hinckley United 1 Blyth Spartans 3 (Match Report)

Following a season of agony for supporters of Blyth Spartans, their team finally gave them something to sing about – in the penultimate game – with a scintillating first half performance at the Greene King Stadium on Saturday.

Hinckley (Match Reaction)

Blyth Spartans manager Tommy Cassidy didn’t know whether to laugh or cry on Saturday – so he did both. A majestic first half performance by his side away at Hinckley certainly put a smile on the Irishman’s face but on the coach back to the north east his head was bowed with incredulity.

Tommy Cassidy’s relegated side were unfortunate to be on the receiving end of a one nil defeat at Croft Park as they were on top for long periods against…

Hyde (Match Reaction)

Spartans’ manager Tommy Cassidy is on the trail of an out and out goalscorer for next season as well as a ‘Godzilla’ as he puts it! Speaking after Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at home to Hyde Cassidy again rued missed chances and reflected on the need to dominate more in midfield. “We huffed and puffed in the match, playing well in patches.
