Notts County v Chesterfield

[PNENIL]

Who are we going for today? I'm hoping Notts personally.
Apparently the two Wrexham owners are flying in and going to Wembley to honour a pledge of supporting Notts after they just missed out to Wrexham. I'm sure it'll be in the documentary but they do seem to get it.

Notts County personally. Wish they were in League 1. Cracking away day.

The only time I would want Cheatersfield to win any game would be against PKE.

Remind me why they were cheats? Something happened late nineties maybe? John Duncan in charge of them possibly…couldn’t stand him. I know they were hard done to vs Boro in the FA cup ‘97 but there was something else …

I am not 100% certain but didn't they cheat us out of promotion and they were subsequently deducted points after they were promoted for financial irregularities?

 

[Bend it like Suddick]

Living in Chez Vegas its Chessie for me.

Great little club, and the days of the brown envelopes and dodgy owners are well in the past.

Passionate fan base but will be well down on the crowd compared to County.

Deducted nine points for failing to declare cash income from 3 turnstiles on match days according to Google.

It was at the same time we were odds on to get their centre forward Luke Beckett. Another Stains masterclass.

Darren Brown the chairman got jailed as a result

Sounds as bent as the church spire there

 

[TommyHutch]

County for me.

 

[NewburyOne]

County for me also, they deserve it for an unbelievable regular season.

Just enough points to not affect them still going up automatically. We went up through the playoffs.

What times kick off?

I’m surprised if there’s a clash between this and the other L1 play off semi.

15:30.

 

[This is Ska]

County deserve it. If they do it I wouldn‘t be surprised if they and Wrexham do a double by getting promoted again next season.

County for me too but to be fair they've both been cracking away days in the past.

 

[tommytwojags]

County's 23 points lead in the league counts for nothing today. If anything it will motivate Chesterfield and as we've already discussed on here, the club that narrowly misses promotion tends to struggle in the play-offs.

All Chesterfield early on and a pen to them on five minutes. 1-0 to the Spireites.

I think it was the year we went up via the play-offs in 2001. Chesterfield went up as champions. As for the charge against them, I can't remember.

It was for paying players additional money in cash, in brown paper bags, avoiding tax.

 

[thedevilsadvocate]

County are shit, Chesterfield are far the better team.

Agree, they've been very poor. They have scored late goals though - especially in the semi final.

Edit.

 

[bollieboy]

Well, well.

 

[Marcusbeansontoast]

Interesting career John Bostock, looks a class above this, and most of his career has been

 

[Wizaard]

Chesterfield retake the lead

 

[Farm1924x]

Some decent football being played. Enjoying it

 

[bollieboy]

2-2

 

[haggertyf]

Great game this

 

[tommytwojags]

Penalties. No pressure on the players. Either score and get your employers into the EFL or miss and carry the burden of failure for the rest of your life.

 

[Thepoolaregoingup]

Save, keeper!

 

[bollieboy]

NC promoted

 

[Thepoolaregoingup]

Happy with this…welcome back, Pies.

 

[BFC_53]

Right team went up, completely deserved over the season. But.....wtf was Bostock thinking with that pen?? Got away with it.

 

[Farm1924x]

County deserve that for their season

 

[BestTrip]

That Panenka. Wow. Justice though. Glad they’ve gone up

 

[Wizaard]

Former Pool keeper taken off for sub keeper in penalties.

 

[TangerinePeel]

BT picked the National League up at the right time didn't they. This season must have had more people watching it than ever before, brilliant promotion campaigns from both Wrexham and Notts County.

 

[Farm1924x]

That Panenka. Wow. Justice though. Glad they’ve gone up

Silly boy. He's no Messi! Got away with it though.

 

[tommytwojags]

Wrexham
Boreham Wood
Chesterfield

Each one of those games must have added years to the County fans. What an experience they've had and what a way for the club to get promoted.

 

[Macseasider]

Welcome back County. Made up for them.

 

[Ollygon]

Great game from 2 proper teams

 

[the_dog]

How any Notts County fan has survived this season without having a coronary is beyond me!

 

[Lee65]

Pleased for NC, fully deserved over the season. Did it the hard way though

 

[Fargo99]

First penalty save was good, second one with his foot was a worldy.
Pleased for Notts County, had a great season.

 

[Wizaard]

With their points totals, it's only right Wrexham and County went up.

I bet Sheffield Wednesday are thinking the same.

Hard luck Chessie

In a way though that makes the eventual result all the more enjoyable.
That said, if we are going up next season, please not the Play Offs.
