Norwich City and Scunthorpe United
Mel Blyth started his football career with non-league Great Yarmouth. He then joined Norwich City, although he never made an appearance in the first team.
When, in October 1967, former Norwich manager, Ron Ashman, took up the reins at Scunthorpe United, then struggling at the foot of Division 3, he returned to his old club to sign several players, including Steve Deere, Geoff Barnard and Mel Blyth to shore up the holes in the defence.
Unfortunately, Scunthorpe were relegated at the end of the 1967-68 season and in July 1968, Mel moved on to Crystal Palace.
