Club Statement | FA Statement

Thursday, 26 March 2020

Blyth Spartans AFC would like to try and offer clarity on the latest FA statement following various reports. 

The FA has confirmed that Leagues at Step 3-6 are set to be declared null and void, with all results expunged.

We are led to believe the initial statement by The FA stated relegation from Step 2, i.e. National League North, would, as a result, not take place.

However, on current viewing, the official statement offers no confirmation on our National League North status, only that there will be no promotion from Step 3.

We remain under the impression that relegation from National League North is still under review as the National League look for ways to complete the 2019/20 campaign.

It would be wrong of us to speculate or confirm without receiving full confirmation from the FA or National League.

We appreciate this a very confusing time for supporters and ourselves and strive to provide updates when possible.
