TEAM NEWS
Half way through the triple game weekend and its the final home game of the season. We welcome Whitby Town from down the coast to Croft Park for the last remaining home encounter of the season. Entertainment has come in all shapes and forms this season and it will more than likely be rounded off with another spirited performance from our young squad.
Dan Maguire has been missing for the last couple games after picking up a knock against Ashington in the Semi Final of the senior cup but came on as a sub during the 2nd half against Worksop so his fitness will be monitored. Also with the Northumberland Senior Cup only 26 hours after this fixture, some players may be rested in preparation.
IN THE AWAY DUG OUT
Darren Williams - Ex football league player, been in charge since the departure of Tommy Cassidy back in October 2011.
DANGER MAN
Lee Mason - Ex Spartan Masa caused us major problems in the reverse fixture and has come into scoring goals of late for the Seasiders.
