Spartans sign Steve Foster

Blyth Spartans are delighted to announce the major signing of former Darlington club captain Steve Foster following his release from the League Two basement club.

The 35 year old Centre Back has been at the centre of a contract row at his former club and this has allowed Blyth Spartans manager Mick Tait the opportunity to swoop and secure the services of a very experienced campaigner, this is especially useful given the club's current lack of numbers at the back.

Manager Mick Tait commented "I have been on the look out for a defender of Foster's class for some time and was delighted when the opportunity to sign him for the remainder of the season came about and that the club was able to strike a deal."

Foster, who knows Manager Mick Tait from their time at Darlington, will go straight into the squad for tomorrow night's Blue Square North game away to Workington.

Welcome aboard Steve!
