Alfie Doherty signs on loan

Tuesday, 31 December 2024

Blyth Spartans are pleased to confirm the signing of midfielder Alfie Doherty from Whitby Town on a 28-day loan.

Doherty joined Whitby in the summer of 2023 after departing Middlesborough, where he was part of their academy since the age of five. During his time at Boro, Doherty had spells on loan at Hebburn Town and Marske United.

While at the Seasiders, Doherty has made 67 appearances, scoring twice.

Head Coach Nathan Haslam said:

I brought him into Whitby following his release from Middlesbrough and he was brilliant for me. He's box to box, has an engine and is technically very good. He will give us plenty of energy and he knows the league.
