Danny Parker injury update

The club can announce that centre back Danny Parker had an operation on his jaw at Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary on Tuesday.

The defender broke his jaw and suffered concussion in a collision with former Spartans striker Craig Farrell during Bank Holiday Monday's draw with Whitby Town at Croft Park.

Everyone at Spartans passes on their best wishes for a speedy recovery to Danny, who our physio and management team are in regular contact with.

We would also like to thank the St Johns Ambulance staff, the paramedics on hand and the medical staff from Whitby Town for their support following the injury.
