The Blues continued their fine run of form with a 1-0 victory over South Shields on Saturday. The match was only two minutes old through when a knee injury to Matty Williams, making his first start of the season, saw the highly rated defender stretchered off to hospital.

The only goal of the game came in first half stoppage time as Tom Peers deflected a Declan Weeks shot past Myles Boney in the Shields goal. The Blues struck the woodwork three times in an entertaining second period, but couldn't extend their lead, the defence held firm though for another three points that lifts the club to fourth in the table.
