FA Trophy 21-22

[Son of Cod]

Why the fuck did we make an announcement yesterday about the ongoing discussions, but then say nowt today?? Some of us have to make/change plans…

I rung up Chesterfield today, had the shit scared out of me when I thought James Rowe had answered the phone, thankfully just a recorded greeting. Felt about as welcomed as Boris Johnson at a rubber johnny convention. Does anybody ever answer the fucking phone at that club?

"Hi you've reached the Chesterfield ticket office, James here. We've all got COVID today and tomorrow, please call back on Monday. Thanks."

The club is actually just a shell company for tax purposes. Only exists on paper.

It's the new 'it's just a 24 hour thing' variant

I reckon just Tshimanga’s got it, so Rowe’s sent the whole squad out clubbing tonight to get some more positives in.

The lovely lady who normally answers the phone has sadly had to be furloughed ,Rishi Sunak gave unprecedented permission,we’re currently looking for someone better.

 

[Carsonsuckscock]

perhaps they've been furloughed

perhaps they've been furloughed ?

The virus is back, how come your lot haven't quit again.

I can’t wait for a ‘Nathan Tyson unfortunately tested positive for COVID last week, hence the FA Trophy forfeit. Given his age he falls into the vulnerable category. Fortunately no other players caught the virus and we are ready to go for Notts tomorrow’ pre match statement on Monday morning.

Falls into vulnerable group haha

It’s deffo not Kabby. I have it on good authority James Rowe has built a custom ‘accommodation’ for him at the stadium. No contact with the outside world other than match days. Is allowed to call his family once a week if he scores at least one goal a game. So far it’s working well.

THe virus never went away
Parmenter quit before the season started - look at the table

Chesterfield isn't that bad

 

[TheEndIsNigh]

Yeh you're better off emailing them asking for a chat and then letting them ring you back when they can. Most of the staff are busy all day in the shop and ticket office apparently.

Thanks. I’ve used just about every method of communication going, smoke signals next.

Can’t you just ask this forum for news, there’s that many Chesterfield fans on here that by law of averages one of them probably works in the ticket office.

We have 9 players missing today but still intend to play.

Well done Wrexham

We unfortunately don't have enough players missing to not play

Its been designated as a 'bring your boots' game. Team captains for the day Lee Mansell and Joey Jones, both coming out of retirement just for this game, will be picking players schoolyard style from those available.

And then you get to the last 2 and have to pick between the fat kid or the one with asthma.

Could be a record low attendance for our bizarre 7:30 kick off.

Expecting Alty to beat us, they’re not looking likely to have much skin in the game at either end of the table so look primed for a go at this competition. Our big game Tuesday still being on pretty much guarantees we’ll play a total reserve side without much football recently, so be a useful exercise for them fitness-wise, but an Alty first team should beat them.

I’m hoping Doyle gets a run out!

Game will be off Tuesday. 9 cases in our squad apparently.

 

[TheShayWay]

Our game has been called off at Bradford Park Ave. Fog is terrible up here.

To add to the 10 or so we’ve got out injured too. Nailed on to be off.
Got a mate flying in from Toronto for Xmas for his first visit in over 2 years and he’s going to not be able to see a game at this rate. Poor fucker

Maybe your physio is a superspreader and the outbreak was confined to the treatment room?
