THEY’VE had six years in the wilderness, but Chesterfield are now eagerly awaiting their Football League return – and the Spireites want to keep on climbing.
Paul Cook’s men wrapped up the National League title with a 3-0 home win against Boreham Wood last weekend. It took them to 95 points, beyond the reach of a chasing pack who were never much more than a speck in the rearview mirror.
The Spireites have scored the most goals, earned the highest number of victories, and have the best goal difference in the division.
“People will look at the win over Boreham Wood and say ‘That was the moment,” said assistant manager Danny Webb, who won promotion to the EFL as a coach under the late Justin Edinburgh at Leyton Orient in 2019.
Excellent
“But the season isn’t about what you do at the end. It’s about what you do from the very first kick, and we’ve been excellent since our first game against Dorking.
