Blyth Spartans 1-0 Southport - Match Thread

Has anyone else come to the conclusion that we need a Striker?

About a year ago

Not replacing Carver sunk last season and still not replacing him is sinking this season. The only time we have looked like replacing him is when we brought him back.

We can't remain addicted to one player and have to move on, and athough top forwards are hardly everyhwere it's baffling we've not got someone over the line. Hopefully now we have freed up a chunk of the budget on Cam's wages we have some more spending power.

So frustrating we are going to finish 9th - 12th yet again, for the same reasons.

Also makes me realise how spoiled we were with our options in this league previously. Always had some combination of Gray, Daly, Kilheeney, Robinson, Simm, Leadbetter, Fearns. We spent most of those seasons with three (sometimes four) strikers all capable of scoring 20+ per season. It's no surprise we were near the top all the time.

Imagine this team with three forwards of that calibre, we'd have been up by Christmas.

12th in average attendances this season https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/nati ... ttendances

We can take some comfort in the fact attendances are better than Fylde,and we are up slightly on the last two seasons hope it continues.

Watched Blyths own highlights from the game 6 minutes and got sound on this one [couldnt on ours] commentators seemed surprised our first GOAL was offside .If we play like that next game we must win it .
