Blyth Spartans today can announce that First Team Manager Jon Shaw has been relieved of his duties.
Jon Shaw leaves after overseeing 21 National League North games which started with a derby day win against South Shields at home, not forgetting the 30 games he spent assisting Graham Fenton at the start of this season and the 7 appearances he made as player-assistant manager, netting a goal in the 3-0 win at Croft Park vs Bishop’s Stortford.
Chairman Irfan Liaquat, would like to place on record his gratitude to Jon for his efforts during his time in charge with us.
“This decision is not one the Club has taken lightly, and it regrettably comes after deep and thorough consideration, and it was in what we believe to be in the best interest of Blyth Spartans Football Club in our attempt to regain National league status. The search for Jon’s successor is already underway.”
Everyone at the Club thanks Jon for his time at the club.
