We’ll take more than we did to Harrogate. I’d say 800 there

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

High winds forecast for weekend , so more high balls humped to our lone striker I guess.

0-0 all over it if that’s the case. Chesterfield have the ball autopiloted to Tom Denton’s head

Performance at Harrogate was good so hoping for a repeat against Chesterfield, they will be shitting themselves too !!
as keates admitted, not great yesterday but given 7 out possible 9 last 3 games has been a decent turn around
Full week of getting Harris & Johnson moulded into our system and we should be ok.[/QUOTE]

Not great, it was shit and how many times have we got to listen to Keates saying "It wasn't great"? He should have gone for the win against a team as shit as us.
The draw means that if D&R win their game in hand, they will overtake us.

Not f*cking good enough!

On the Chesterfield official site - news that there will be a pre match bucket collection in aid of Jordan Sinnott - plus a minutes applause pre kick off and more applause in the 25th minute ? to correspond with his age before he lost his life.

BBC Weather predicts the wind won't arrive until early Sunday though Denton will have to contend with the jet stream buzzing around his head whatever the weather.

Considering this is truly a MASSIVE game the current ticket sales are disappointing.

An away win would put some distance between us and them but a loss and the gap reduces dramatically plus the downside mentally of what it could do to the confidence of our squad. If D & R rise above us with their game in hand and keep above us it could be us or Chesterfield for the drop - I honestly think we will continue pulling away from the drop zone but it's a shame this of all away games doesn't attract a better turn out - perhaps last weeks dire performance couples with the early 1.00 pm kick off and last season's disorder has put many people off going to one, if not the best stadiums in our league - and to think we will be all but home by tea time whilst other games are just about to finish - what's not to like ?

They are lucky to be getting that many fans after the dire performances all season. The game will be 2 shit teams battling it out for a scrappy win, whilst playing some disgusting non entertaining football. Can't fault any fan not wanting to travel to away games this season. Just about drag myself to home games these days.

Considered it but ,, no


If we win I might go vs Torquay next week,, promised myself after the Aldershot fiasco , I won't be wasting my hard earned until they give the fans something back

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

Ireland V Wales Rugby will have had an effect to.

They get my vote guaranteed to be entertained not bored by hoofball.

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

I still have nightmares about THAT F.A. Cup exit - however I would like to see the new ground but don't feel up to driving that far in February. Hopefully next season this fixture will be much latter in the season with Chesterfield second in the League, ten points behind us.
Safe journey to our superb group of travelling Reds

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

IF we beat Chesterfield, involves a massive IF. Look at Keates tactics last Saturday. Playing a fellow struggling team, he played one forward -at home. For tomorrow at Chesterfield, it’s another crucial game. Will his desire to avoid a loss, scupper any chance of us winning?
Could Keates be planning to overwhelm the midfield and not play any forwards? An entertainment sport is quickly becoming a game of chess. Boring!

I'm going, couldn't care if its bad or not. Back they boys in good times and bad

Could work in our favour - they need the points even more than us, especially infront of their own fans.

I fancy us for the win - wins at Eastleigh, Chorley and Harrogate strongly suggest we have turned the corner away from home - a draw wouldn't be the end of the world but it's a game where, above all others v fellow relegation rivals that we really must not lose. Last weeks tactics of playing a lone striker in the form of Hooper might be better suited away from home - absorb pressure and hit them on the break - perhaps Harris will start from the off - more concerning is the back line which could be devoid of both Carrington and Jennings which could make things very interesting especially on the left flank.

Corrected for accuracy :). Almost guarantee Hooper alone up front trying to deal with the hoofballs which soar over the heads of our midfield. If Jay Harris starts, he may provide enough fire for us to grab a goal.

Sorry but I fully understand those who chose not to go including me . If you are happy watching the crap Keates churns out including hoof ball and poor team selection and add in souless plastic ground etc good luck .

I'm not loving the football we are playing but its a 6 pointer and our team needs the support. As they say "For the love, not the glory".

I'll be there.

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

Anyone got a spare ticket?

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

Total away ticket sales (I believe) 650 - about 1,000 down from last season.

So that's it - no sales tomorrow being all ticket.

Re: Chesterfield away anyone?
 

Getting up in the dark to go to a football match seems weird to say the least.

The sacrifices we make to follow our team !
