TEAM NEWS
Spartans will be looking to continue their winning streak to three after Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Grantham. After 7 games into the season, Drolysden have had a poor start after their relegation from the Blue Square North the previous season and have only picked up 1 point, which was at Butcher’s Arms Ground. The bloods were on the receiving end of a 2-1 defeat to Kings Lynn on Saturday but will be attempting to get up and started against Blyth at home.
The Blyth management and squad will be hoping that they will be able to continue their away game record after their last Tuesday victory and clean sheet away to Frickley. Manager Tom Wade will be hoping that Arjun Purewal will be fit again after missing the Grantham game with a thigh injury. With 6/7 matches played by Blyth, penalties have been awarded so far.

Dave Pace – Chairman of the Manchester based club and manager since 1998
