No matter what you think of the management, owners, players etc it is so sad to see a town the size of Chesterfield with a football club in the bottom 4 of the national league

we should be and ARE one of the top 60 clubs in the country.

To paraphrase Arnie, We'll be back!

agree it's awful and should never have happened, as a town fan I can accept us dropping into league 2 for the odd season but we are seriously facing the prospect of being in the 6th tier next season, anyone who doesn't think so just take a look at the league table and look at the appauling stats by our name.

This club is finished if it drops into Northern National League.

Seriously, Fagin needs to either put money in and invest to build a successful side, or sell it all to someone who has the club and town’s genuine interest at heart.

A big 6 months coming up. No room for any more mistakes...

Mistakes?.its been blindingly obvious for three years at least that DA doesn't view any area of the running of the club as a mistake, if he did then AC would have been long gone, either that or DA is thick.

excellent, i'm sure the lad hallam is decent but if we are looking to get out of this mess with one month loanees we will get left behind as we are doing, time for proper investment in the playing staff.

Now makes Tuesdays game against Bromley a critical "must win" game. How bad and sad is that at this stage of the season when we are playing must win games before Xmas... something doesn't add up somewhere??

It's only a 'must win' for Allen's future. Although it well tell us how real the threat of a triple relegation is to us. Unfortunately for us recent history reminds us that every time we have approached a critical game every other teams has shown more desire to win and not once have our players been willing to put in as much as the opposition have.

I get your overall point, but frequently you seem to confuse a lack of effort with a lack of quality. Last year's team didn't drop out the league by not trying. They did so by not performing and if anything that's scarier. Are we good enough to survive this time? Does anyone think we are with what we have?

Agree about players trying but not performing adequately (said the same myself many times). It means the players as a group and including the manager are inadequate. Do they have enough to stay up? I think so but who knows.

In the grand scheme of things and the trajectory we are heading Tuesday means nothing. In fact I don’t think what happens on the pitch is even that important anymore with the way the future of the club is panning out.

Would be typical town to lose Tuesday then stuff Grimsby.

We aren’t at the minute.

We are what we are a non league club.

It’s sad but too many people living in the past.

The amount of players with the so called killer instinct , in our side, is zilch. Backside kicking will not find this I’m afraid. Most of them are a bunch of strollers. Some of them have some ability but were not born with a fire in their bellies.

I'd bet his loan is extended _perhaps the 1 month loan was a time to assess both aspects of the loan.
God I hate this league.

Allen is here until the attendance dictates otherwise.

He's realised southern based players aren't working and the scouting network shows some long term planning is their way forward.

Fully agree mate, even if we manage to stop in the National League do we think it will be any better next year, not with the current set up in my opinion. I think that we have got used to the fact that the club is going in one direction only and that is not up
