When I first started watching Chesterfield (1986), it was rare for a player to leave us and play for another league club, never mind a club in a higher division! I can remember Bob Bloomer going to Bristol Rovers and - I think - Darren Wood went to Northampton but apart from that, not many at all in that period.
tony brien went to rotherham with nicky law coming the other way I think we got a few quid on top. Good deal that. Did tony coyle got to stockport after us?
You are right though, almost all our ex players went non league in the late 80s early 90s. I remember being excited when dyche broke through and there were rumours of him going to palace. It was almlost unheard of for 1 of our players to go higher, and that didnt happen either.
Its great we are getting lots of good players i hope it can continue.

Everyone thinks forgiveness is a lovely idea until they have something to forgive
