Don't think I'll bother. Will be a terrible day out. Last league game they closed all pubs, 1pm kick off and herded us into a caged area inside the ground I seem to remember. Derbyshire Police arguably worse that South Yorkshire Police which is some acolade.


The last game there was that Dembele game, and a decent day out from memory. Glorious August weather, few pints on the way to the ground and a barnstorming 3-1 win for Russell Slade’s black and white army.

Some of the games at Saltergate were a bit ropey though I recall, but I wouldn’t write this one off until the police have fùcked about with it.

So Cheaterfield think we are out of the running!

I would hope that we make a last dash for the line and sneak into the EFL!

I think both Chesterfield and especially us can forget about winning the league. Stockport are currently tracking to hit 94 points based on PPG, but that overlooks the difference between their form pre and post-Challinor.

Dave Challinor took over on 2nd November, and took 1 point from his first 2 games in charge. Since then, their league form looks like this: W11 D1 L1. That’s an 85% win rate, and since Christmas in the league they’ve scored 26 and conceded 4 over a stretch of 9 games.

It pains me to say it because I don’t like the bloke for obvious reasons, but the statistics suggest that Dave Challinor is a very capable manager. I would bet my house on Stockport winning the league at this stage give their form and squad, the absence of Tshimanga at Chesterfield and the fact that for all their spending Wrexham still aren’t quite smashing it.

The last game there apart from the friendly was an FA Cup game the following season.

It was indeed. I stand corrected.
