Optimistic Nut Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Good win for Gateshead like. Seen yesterday that they've already sent Tom Allan out on loan to Spennymoor, thought he'd be above National League standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWN Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Blyth since I started to watch them for me are at times good but in general are shite for this league . They simply aren’t up to it and every manager seems incapable of getting them on a run because the players aren’t good enough for this league . Too lightweight, they don’t have a presence on the field and I’ve never saw a captain amongst them leading them . Very very ordinary I’m afraid on and off the field , if they survive it will be only just , again . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, the committee (and owner) shit their pants at the thought or promotion - refused to back him, so he went to Darlington. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Last minute winner for Blyth in the cup. Ashington earn a replay. Battling draw for the Heed. Bishop stay top of the NL after beating the Stan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The board backed him enough to allow him to manage contract option renewals, which he deliberately didn't do by the due date, then signed those same players to Darlo. There's plenty to criticise upstairs at Croft Park, but AA absolutely shafted the club. He also had the biggest wage bill the club ever had at his disposal.

When Blyth first went up to that level under Harry Dunn I would say it was easily their natural level. Since then, a lot of former FL clubs have dropped into it plus a lot of other clubs have moved on in terms of club infrastructure. Looking at some of the gates in the NPL now- and that you even have FT teams at the level below, then Blyth are always going to be at the bottom end National North / top end NPL. Still, cracking result today in the cup. Home draw would be nice for a place in the first round. Edited October 1, 2022 by Matt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FCB Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Marske lost 5-2 to South Shields and therefore knocked out the FA Cup. Thank f*ck for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFCDoog Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) Was at Hebburn yesterday, really decent set up to be fair, clubhouse is really smart. Good game against Grantham and finished 2 all, Grantham had a player sent off at nil nil. Really good support from Grantham too considering how far it is, brought about 50 and didn't stop singing all game. Not sure 2nd is a true position for Hebburn mind, feel they'll slip down the table a bit more Edited October 2, 2022 by NUFCDoog Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Just been watching Heaton Stan smash Benfield 1-4 in a rain soaked Coast Road derby. Stan should’ve been 5 or 6 up at HT with the Benfield keeper playing a blinder before Benfield absolutely dominated the second half without getting the second goal to put pressure on Stan. Late on sealing goal from just shy of the half way line too. Quality stuff. On 25/09/2022 at 18:30, Optimistic Nut said: Langstaff has 12 in 10 for Notts County. Scored to beat Wrexham tonight.

Doctor Zaius Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Ashington away to Kings Lynn this weekend. Chance to reach the first round for the first time since the 60's. Big ask against a side top of the National League North though. 1500 against Stocksbridge was tremendous. Looked better than Bradford PA, Stocksbridge and Ashton Utd in the games played in previous rounds, so we'll see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
