Head2Head & Early Team News – Chesterfield (A)

Last updated : 07 September 2006 By Bigrich.....

McFarland
Chesterfield have had an indifferent spell thus far and have lost their last two games, conceding six goals in the process. Although they had a reasonable start, including the 5-1 mauling of Millwall at Saltergate, form has dipped recently. Boss Roy McFarland doesn't seem too worried though and believes the 4-0 reverse at pace setters Nottingham Forest was a little unjust. This week he's arranged a team bonding session, with his boys going toe to toe in a cookery knockout!

Ex-Miller Paul Shaw may not be fit in time to face his former club, so McFarland may go with a similar side to the one above, although he may tinker with the formation as Phil Picken could step into a midfield role. New midfielder Georgi Kiss is unlikely to feature.


One to watch:

Paul Hall

Tricky winger who's done the rounds in the football league, but still poses a threat down the right, good crosses could prove fruitful for Wayne Allison.

Hoskins
Onto ourselves and Alan knill hopes to have Ian Sharps back fit after he sat out last week's disappointing defeat to Northampton. Michael Keane could well make way for Martin Woods in midfield, whilst Will Hoskins makes a welcome return from suspension.

The team will be looking to bounce back and get their points total down to zero, and a repeat of last season's 1-0 scoreline to the Millers would go down nicely with a few post match pints.

Talking to todays Rotheham Star, Knill said: "I'm looking at several possibilities, After the disappointment of last Friday's game, I think a derby clash like this one is a good one to get back into it."

Alan Knill's pre-match thoughts will appear on the site tomorrow, in the meantime here's the Head2Head between the two teams:
