I came across a programme v Walsall from Sunday 25 November 25 k/o 11.30, Leonard, Dyche, Hart, Lemon, Brien, Gunn, Hewitt, Caldwell, Barnes, Cooke, Rogers. I remember them all except Paul Barnes, anyone remember the score and why was it played on a Sunday? I thought John Cooke was really good player and received a raw deal when he was released.

I think we went throught a brief spell with experimenting with different days, I seem to remember that one because it coincided with the RAC Lombard rally passing through Chesterfield on it s way to the Chatsworth House stage..btw whatever happened to that?

It was 2-2. Brien scored an OG I think

I obviously did'nt read the programme before posting, Paul Harts notes state it was because of a match between Derby & Forest and they were unable to guarantee the manpower to control our game!!!!!!!! Lol... Other players listed as town players I can't remember were S.Cordiner & C Boyd both showing as 1 appearance as sub..... Anyone remember them?

Scott Cordner came through the youth ranks and Charlie Boyd on loan from Peterborough United.

I think most folks would probably struggle to remember either.

I remember Barnes was on loan from Stoke, ended up going to York and having a decent career in what is now championship level

I remember them all and was at the match- Cordner was a midfielder who played a couple of matches when we were struggling and then disappeared, and I thought we'd picked up Boyd as a free agent (non-contract type arrangement) when we had an injury crisis that post-Wembley season.

I guess this was 1990, looking at the team?

remember vaguely us having a game on a Sunday and Sean O Neil refused to play in it on religious grounds?

[Cartman]

Paul Barnes was a striker who was prolific in the lower leagues at other clubs - think we had him on loan - played at York after us I think

Scott Cordner was a striker who scored on debut I think and ended up only playing 3 games before being binned off - he was still bitter about it when he interviewed me to join the temp employment agency he worked for in Manchester in 1998

Scott Cordner worked at the DCC offices at Matlock before playing for Town. Forever a Spireite and myself played a few times with him in works friendlies. He wasnt that good😉
