How long have you supported Chesterfield?
63 years this season.
What are your hopes and expectations for the 2024/25 season?
Mid-table security touching the play-offs after 6 years in the den of misery of the Vanarama National League.
What are your thoughts on your manager?
Paul Cook is one of the best in the lower leagues and a legend for bringing us back to the promised land of the EFL.
Which of your new signings are you most excited about?
Paddy Madden.
Random fact about your Club?
We’ve been to Wembley more times than most premier league clubs – that’s since 1984 v Bury.
Which were your favourite and least favourite matches involving Chesterfield?
Lots of favourites beating Glasgow Rangers and winning the Anglo Scottish Cup and returning to the EFL.
My least favourite was the 97 FA Cup semi-final and dropping out of the EFL.
Which sides do you think will finish in the top seven and the bottom two?
Top 7: MK Dons, Gillingham, Bradford City, Doncaster, Walsall, Notts County and Chesterfield.
Bottom 2: Morecambe and Swindon.
What are your thoughts on Lincoln City?
It has been very well run and consolidated well in the last few years.
If you could steal one Lincoln City player for your team, who would it be and why?
If you have a 20-goal striker I’ll fetch him in my car.
What is your prediction for this match?
Hopefully not but edgy and maybe go to penalties. But over 90 minutes maybe the odd goal in 3 either way depending on team selection.
