Same at Blyth; Armstrong set to be appointed as Darlington manager.

Good appointment for Darlo, they could be ones to watch (especially if they take any players from Blyth with them).

I believe he joined up with Chris Senior.

Blyth almost look like they're actively trying to relegate themselves.

If they were based anywhere else in the country, I'd totally agree. However, if they recruit successfully from the Northern League, they'll hold their own. There are some decent players in their neck of the woods who don't want to play too far from home (Dale is a good example), and anyone who doubts the strength of the Northern League need look no further than Lewis Wing who's stepped up from Shildon and almost immediately become a first team regular at Middlesbrough.

I fear much more for BPA, who have plenty of clubs on top of them who can recruit more effectively than they now can.

Management duo leave BPA

Replaced by Garry Thompson. Manager and assistant manager both look like they will stay be playing so that looks like an economy measure.

We have three perfectly good centre backs. What we need is a left winger.

Neither Jones or Harrison have agreed terms for next season yet meaning they are currently free agents.

Obviously which is why I included the word ‘yet’ in my original comment which as it stands is still correct. Until we here otherwise the only defender from last seasons squad to have been offered and agreed terms is Tom Hannigan.

I can see why we're doing the announcements this way but it might give the impression that we're still negotiating with squad members who have not yet been announced as retained, when I'm sure the majority of last year's squad is in fact already signed up.

If there are players signed up and the information is being drip fed it's worse bit of chin tickling in long time

Armstrong is after two more from Blyth - Darlington will probably be among the front-runners next season.
