Here is a list of clubs with whom we have something in common:

Mansfield
Cambridge Utd
Torquay Utd
York City
Wrexham
Oxford Utd

I think we are closer to playing Conference football than we have ever been? If the playing side doesn't improve we are vulnerable to occupying one of the bottom two places and, if not this season, then the odds will be increased next season. That is a fact based on current performances.

We have no right to stay a Football League side but current form is relegation form and with attendences plummeting our status, while not yet in danger, has the potential to be precarious.

I read in amazement the minority of posters who blatently try to shout down those that can see the dangers. Like lemmings that throw themselves over the cliff they are truely the 'enemy within.'

A Premiership chairman who was on holiday while his club was heading into crisis would be castigated by the national press. Just because this is Chesterfield doesn't mean we don't care any less.

I like to hear those who believe there is no crisis and that the football is excellent give their points of view in the radio; if they are brave enough.

Agreed I can certainly see the dangers.

I predicted at the start of the season we would get off to a shocker this season and unfortunately I have been proved correct.

We are a very poor side at the present time and despite Luton's & Bournemouth point deductions we are vulnerable. It is still early days but with Richardson in charge anything is possible.

Some of the posters on here do make me chuckle, I think if we lost 20 games on the trot some of them would still think everything in the garden is rosy. Radio Sheffield are just as bad. How annoying are Seth & Mr Walker.

Sorry spooks, but I cant agree. While we may be in the doldrums, I see no crisis yet, we are far from the level of last years mansfailed side, if only for Lester.

There ARE however serious issues at the club, that no amount of belled hat wearing, or scottish blinkered tripe can disguise.
A new hope.

Can't disagree in terms of the results but I believe we have decent players and a squad that isn't bad at all. Unfortunately, they're not doing the business for a host of reasons.
