Same, couldn’t even tell you who has won it in the years we’ve been down here.

Anyone know what the score is with Williams ?

What's happening with Jeff King ?

Personally I would prefer Horton and Clements to rotate

Injured but on way back

No idea - out of favour probably

Town odds

Title 3/20
Promotion 1/10


It certainly doesn’t feel like that


I had them Pre Season in seperate bets for Promotion and Champions and I can cash out now for 90% of the Returns.

I had another 4 Team Accy with Rothrum, Sheff Pooh, Bowels to go down and Town to go up. (15/1) Cash Out is up to 50% of the Return

For all the drama on here last night the general take on the Woking board appears to be that we cruised to a win barely getting out of first gear and will walk the league.


That is the most sensible comment I’ve read on this board about the game apart from walk the league, nothing is a certainty

361 away fans on a cold wet Tues night after a weekend game at Southend 3 days before is an immense effort. Well done to all Spireites who travelled down. There is a big belief in this club and our support is exemplary and showing solidarity with the Team. The lads, staff, management team and the club in general appreciate it im sure. Well done everybody. What an effort.

Splendid result, but we were never comfortable until the second went in. Their balls into the box were always a threat, and 'owt can happen with the ball in the box. Having the MoM in there helps - Jamie Grimes, of course, and he dealt with everything.
Woking are an attacking disaster, but their defence has only conceded the same number of goals as us. Not a high bar, admittedly, but they're no mugs, and we were struggling in attack until Quigs managed to beat the offside trap. I'm probably a minority of one, but Dobra doesn't cut it for me as the middle of the three behind the striker - great finisher in the box, but not an incisive passer. It left Berry a bit out of things on his wing, especially with Freckleton behind him, who was having a nightmare. Fortunately Dobs and Freckleton improved as the game went on and Woking flagged a bit. It can't help morale when you see Colclough coming on when your legs are starting to wobble.
The worst thing was Jones's booking. Vitally important player, so why commit a stupid tackle three minutes into injury time, in midfield, with no pressure. It absolutely defies belief, unless somebody decided we needed him to get the last yellow out of the way before Hartlepool, in which case somebody can't count.

I want us to play a strongish team v Southport. I want us to go for the double and win a trophy at Wembley. Our push for the title is not going to be derailed by injuries in a Trophy game any more than they will be affected by injuries in a League game. We have the squad and the financial backing to add to it if required. Let’s try and make it a historic season. Players need and want to play games not sit in the stands. We can cope with playing 50 odd games.



If we go for a cup run let’s have it in the FA cup where we get some money.


This one is just extra games we don’t need

I reckon it does. We’re the best side in this division by some distance. The bookies think the same
A new hope.

I dont think he is, paused as close as i can get to it being passed forward, the other central defender appears to be playing him onside :-

It's certainly tight but he looks just on to me.

Don't care, he was adjudged as being onside and he coolly slipped it into the onion bag.
We're on our way

Definitely onside. If it looks close from this angle, if you were side on it would be "even more onside" if that makes sense

Annoyingly I can't seem to attach images or even submit a post from my laptop. But I drew a line across the 18 yard line and then moved that straight line up to the foot of the last defender, who is actually the right back. And by that logic, unless I've totally lost it, he's being played on by two defenders and by quite some distance.
