Ross BurbearyThe Spartans squad has been strengthened recently with three players added to the line up. Two of which are the recent signings of Ross Burbeary and Ryan Johnson. Both Ross and Ryan are big solid defenders, who aren’t afraid to put some big hits out and solid shots from point. Ross is returning to the Spartans after he was unable to play due to other commitments whilst Ryan joins us from the Scimitars EPL team. The third player is Richie Oliver, who has returned after a nasty knee injury at Whitley Bay in September. Richie was a vital part of last season’s cup & playoff wining team and was voted best forward and shared player’s player with Lee Haywood.
