They've just said on Sky, that because the top teams have got to play each other, 76 points will be enough to go up. Who's commentating for Sky? And who's in the studio?

My point was that a fancy ground makes no difference. Chesterfield have something that STFC have not had since GT was last at the club. Ironic init. When Fred Davies took over in our promtion season we had it then too We most definately did have it that season. Everyone goes on about the 1979 season and I dare say it was great but if it was 3 points for a win we would have finsihed 4th and not champions, but we also had a great cup run too. In 1994 we would have still finished champions even if it was still 2 points for a win. This season we have shown glimpses of spirit, but its just occasional consistant spark thats missing, which i think comes down to us as fans. We don't get behind the team and don't have a noisy home end like most clubs. The riverside was more vocally central and unique that the wets stand and even still it wasn't always the main vocal part of the ground until as older generations will speak of the station end. We need to cast off the shadow of Gay Meadow now find a positive area to get vocal and back the team. Lets face it 18 and 19 is utter pants and only good when your actually in there. 90% of away teams outsing us when we are at home.

Bit of trouble in the away end, similar to what has been seen at the Meadow.

In the stoodio, Alan Knill and Peter Taylor. 6 year old Long Run won The Gold Cup, Theakstons Best in the Boars Head.

Even a point tomorrow would be a good result now, but 3 points would be excellent after that!

That ground is chocka block tonight, how i envy them, top of the league by a clear margin and completley filling there stadium less than a year after it was built. We been in ours for 4 years and aint filled it once. They even got a new badge also that means something also and resemebles there old one. The design of the ground is also better and the stands closer to the action which makes for a better atmosphere. They got a whole end that sings also and clearly makes a lot of noise which p**ses all over our pathetic 2 blocks in stuck in the corner. It makes you think how wrong our club had got it. I can't understand where we have gone wrong and how they got it so right. You may have a point about the stadium at Chesterfield but a bit harsh on the attendances. It was a record crowd tonight which suggests it hasn't always been like that. Also if your top of the league at this stage and playing your local rivals it is going to be full whether your on sky or not. If the Torquay result did hit morale hopefully this gives a boost going into tomorrows game not only by going up a place by not playing but that other teams at the top can get beat 5-0 aswell.

The karen Child stand has been rocking full of noise all season just ask any Chesterfield fan. They went around it the right way and our club hasn't end of story. We didn't even full all the home seats for a play off semi final 2 years ago.

Their main vocal support at the old ground was behind the goal so it was natural that they would locate behind the goal at the new one too.

Didn't we pack the meadow out like that for the bury semi final? , i remember struggling to get a ticket for that game,
you have to consider that it is a big game, a local derby and two promotion contenders, also the friday night games seem to be a good idea, have we actually had one of these at the meadow yet? seems to get a few more people than a tuesday night perhaps because of supporters not working the next day and also gives players a saturday free.
Why are Chesterfield successful, I think its all down to giving John Sheridan time to build a successful squad of players, I remember chesterfield fans 2 years ago after we had beaten them 2-1 at the meadow wanting Sheridan out
how did they Chesterfield take Rotherham apart tonight? is there anything we could learn from that, we play them at theirs in a couple of wks I believe

The trouble tonight was in the opposite corner of the ground to the Shrewsbury game.
Worth pointing out that Holden played in central defence tonight where he looked Okay on the odd occasion he played there for the Town. No one at Sky seemed to twig that he had played for Rotherham earlier in the season.

Chesterfield's record against the top 7 clubs.
H W4 D0 L0 (5 0 Rotherham 4 1 Wycombe, 4 3 Shrewsbury.)
A W2 D3 L1 (the 1 loss was an unlucky one against Rotherham)
Bit different from our record against these clubs!
The good news is that Chesterfield still have to play Port Vale, Bury and Gillingham at home and Torquay away.
