Finally made it to Tow Law. Everything I expected it to be, great old Northern League ground :thup:

 

Crowds, and I guess atmosphere, aren't that great nowadays but the place could be bouncing back in the day when it seemed like every other game was a derby for them.

Heaton Stan 0-3 Redcar at halftime.

 

Quite an even game all things considered, but Redcar utterly clincial with their chances. Three or four of their players are levels above at this level.

Massive win for Ashington as well, against Consett. Looking much better for them now too.

I'd be OK with how the bottom 4 are now to be honest. I was hoping for a net gain of teams in that league again next season, but that's looked extremely unlikely for a while. It would be good if Bishops could catch either Ossett or Grimsby (who have lost 6 in a row, or 1 point from 7 in 2026), but 3 down is better than it was once looking and I would like to see Spartans stay up as it would be crazy going from 6th tier to 9th tier in 3 years.

Spartans win again, on a roll. Probably should’ve had this bloke from the start.

 

He's an excellent manager. He was in my class at school and he's a smashing lad as well. Usually takes a bit of time to get going, you never really get the new manager bounce with him but wherever he's been, Whitley Bay, North Shields, Blue Star, Tyne Met College, Spartans U19s and now their 1st team he's been a success at them all.

 

Was actually a very good footballer but got a bad injury unfortunately.

Off to Essity Park tomorrow for a big 6 pointer.

 

Prudhoe YC Snrs got their first win for about 84 years on Wednesday and are back out of the relegation zone and play Tow Low who are just about behind them.

 

Looks a nice day for it.

Very good collective set of results in the NPL East. 5 wins and 2 draws out of the 9 matches. HUGE win for Bishop Auckland against Emley who are comfortably in the playoffs. The 2 defeats were for Blyth T and Newton Aycliffe who both look knackered having both lost 5 matches in a row, but the local sides above them are showing fight.

I, myself, am not long back from Prudhoe, who after not winning in the league at all since October 4th, have now won twice in 4 days, admittedly against the bottom and 2nd bottom sides, but still. A fighting chance for them to stay up. 195 there as well which was one of the better crowds today in the Northern League, including the division above. They've got 4 more home matches so will look to go at least once more before the end of the season.
