December Podcast out on Monday

Radio Northumberland's Jonny Hall and Spartans Senior Press Officer Mark Carruthers are recording the latest edition of the Official Blyth Spartans Podcast on Saturday. The show which is produced in association with Radio Northumberland will be available for download or just to listen to via the club's SoundCloud account on Monday evening.

It's a real Christmas cracker with Spartans legend Robbie Dale(pictured above) leading the way as he selects his One to Eleven of the greatest players he has played with in his time at Croft Park.

Manager Tom Wade takes a look back at an eventful year that has seen him in three different roles at Croft Park. He also gives an insight into his hopes for 2014 and beyond.

Full back Ian Watson will take part in the first edition of a new feature "Team Mates". The former Whitley Bay man will give his opinions on things like which Spartan has the best dress sense, who has the worst taste in music and who is the most intelligent in the Spartans dressing room.

Anyone who follows centre back partnership Arjun Purewal and Nathan Buddle on Twitter will know that there is quite on online rivalry between the two of them. Well now they come face to face on the podcast in a Quiz of the Season in what should be a hotly contested competition.

Finally the Radio Northumberland Spartans Goal of 2013 will be revealed from five different choices selected by Jonny and Mark from the station's live coverage. There will also be a chat with the scorer of the winning goal.

The Green Army can listen in to the podcast from 7pm on Monday evening and a link will appear on the club's various social media accounts and on the website.
