Well it might not be the pages of fawning write ups that Wrexham got last year but it’s a start. From this mornings Mail.

■ NOBODY seems entirely sure who scored. Will Grigg, who was clearly in the vicinity, basked in the adulation like any striker would, and Tom Naylor, who crossed it, has gone down as the scorer in the record books, though it looked an awful lot like a Barnet player turned it into his own net. Either way, that goal in Tuesday’s 2-0 win at The Hive was Chesterfield’s 100th of the season, a landmark not reached by the Spireites since 1956-57, according to club expert Phil Tooley. Ash Palmer scored No 101 at Dorking on Saturday when a shock 4-1 defeat cut their lead at the top of the National League to 20 points.

Paul Cook’s team are on their way back to the EFL and in illustrious company, three goals shy of Manchester City this season and four behind Liverpool. Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen have 99. Bolton have the most in the EFL with 92 and fellow League One promotion pushers Peterborough are on 91.

East stand second class citizen.

WOW get me a chair. Staggered that at long last we have some sort of media recognition for our record busting season.

It’s a start. Per CFC twitter, there will be a piece on Calendar tomorrow night, with interviews with Danny Webb, Joe Quigley and Ashley Kirk from the Erwin training ground.

Calendar can get fuc*ed right off. They've not wanted to know us since we got relegated and now all of a sudden they want to do interviews with all involved? Makes me sick.

Life goes on. Whatever happens.

Agreed, never given us a second thought all season, even this last few weeks as we've headed towards the finish line...

Presumably the management didn’t think the same when they got the call? It looks like they actually spoke with them.

We got a minute mention on Calendar this morning,saying there could be celebrations in North Derbyshire this weekend and a quick 30 seconds with Danny Webb. Not quite Wrexham standard is it ?

Don't take it personally. Calender/Look North rarely, if ever, have coverage of teams outside the top four flights, It doesn't matter if you're Chesterfield, York, Halifax or Scunthorpe etc. It happens but, thankfully, we're about to leave all that behind.

When Doncaster were languishing in this league they covered their matches aswell. It makes me sick that they'll adopt Mansfield and ignore us. **** em!

Life goes on. Whatever happens.
