TEAM NEWS
Spartans are back on their travels this Tuesday night with a lenghty jounrey to Nantwich Town. Blyth will be hoping for better fortune tonight against the Dabbers as they go in hunt of their first vicotry over the Cheshire side. Blyth have won their 3 last away games though and will be hoping for a similar outcome. Victory for Blyth could see us move up to 7th, but only if the fixture involving Buxton goes in our favour, they host 23rd placed Trafford tonight.

In the last 2 games. Robbie Dale has failed to convert from the penalty spot, he will be more than dermined to make up with a strong performance against the opposition. The winger has over 20 goals in all competitions this season and will hoping the Nantwich defence are having an off day. Along with Jarrett Rivers and Dan Maguire as a front three, Tom Wade and the team will be looking for them to grab some goals and push towards another 3 points for the table. Victory could see Blyth 9 points off the last play off place on 56 points, with then 3 games in hand on Workington, Ilkeston (both on 65 points) and Ashton United (on 66 points).
