Ayup, Graham.

So, has the Club responded to your submitted questions?

[RGS]

They have. More questions have been sent back in return, so we're looking at next week's edition.

I think the Derbyshire times is on the way back as a newspaper,I think it's been a great read recently,but I'd make some changes.

A dedicated grassroots football section ,the Sunday adults league gets too much coverage,it is a washed up league and a pale shadow of what it used to be coverage of grassroots football should be concentrated at junior level and used as an initiative to getting children into sport,grassroots football at junior level is thriving at present,equal coverage should be given to all clubs

[RGS]

I've passed that feedback on, cheers.

From my own experience as sports editor at the Worksop Guardian for the past several years, the number of people willing to send in a brief report on their grassroots football side has diminished. At one stage we could run two full pages of junior reports from Worksop teams. These days you might get two reports per week at best. And you'd think it'd be easier, just emailing a few paragraphs from your phone rather than hand writing the report and posting it into the office like the days of old.

Experience of this from a cricket point of view is that you'd go to the trouble of sending a report into the DT only for it to be butchered to about 5 lines to fit in around the Chesterfield CC weekly double page spread or left out completely and eventually you just got fed up of bothering if it was a waste of time. There are numerous cricket clubs in and around Chesterfield playing cricket at a decent standard yet only Chesterfield CC seemed to get coverage.

Thanks...to be fair its not just the DT. Peak FM also seem to do coverage of Chesterfield CC games on the radio but rarely anyone else.

I used to send in reports which were tagged 'Times Reporter'. It wasn't so much the butchering of them I objected to (their choice but often made little sense when they'd done) more the fact I never got a single thanks via email. Not once.

Very good article/assessment of us at the minute.

Not sure about Novak comment being 'not very mobile' ? What then does that make SEB.

Very true about Jay O, hope Danny takes notice and puts him just behind striker.

I know the Chairman at Chesterfield CC has got good contacts in the media and has built up good relationships.
