Hyde United 1 Blyth Spartans 0
Blyth travelled to Tameside tonight for a crucial Blue Square North clash with Hyde United and sadly for the Spartans (and their hopes of remaining in the league) they lost 1-0 to a 78 minute goal from David Owens.

But a hesitant performance which lacked any real cutting edge resulted in a 1-0 nil defeat and saw them drop back to fourth off bottom –…
