Interesting. The Northern League has been left out on a limb for too long. Obviously Blyth have done well and become established, Spennymoor and Darlington have moved back up after their financial problems, and South Shields look to be on the way to joining them. Who else from the Northern League could maybe's have a crack - Whitley Bay, Ashington, Morpeth?
Blyth still on a bad run at the moment - first game in a month, yesterday. But unfortunately they lost 1-0 at already relegated North Ferriby United. Need to pick up their form, or they could drop out of the play-off picture.
