After two successive relegations hopes were high that Chesterfield would at the very least put up a good showing in the National League. Indeed promotion was anticipated by the bookies and more optimistic fans. I was not so sure, the new manager had just overseen the relegation of Barnet to the National League.
The season began well with three wins, then the rot set in. Two draws and eight defeats leave Chesterfield above the relegation places on goal difference. Difficult times. Tomorrow Chesterfield visit fellow strugglers Maidstone United. Must secure at least a draw. Defeat and who knows, the manager may be shown the door.
1-1 score. Let's hope for recovery from here.
