Spireites Can Almost Smell The Wembley Turf


Sunday 29th January 2012

Spireites Can Almost Smell The Wembley TurfSupporters of Chesterfield Football Club can, this weekend, almost smell the turf of Wembley as the Spireites prepare for the 2nd leg of the JPT Northern final at Boundary Park tomorrow night (Monday 30th January).

John Sheridan's
squad go into the game with the advantage, having won bragging rights when taking on the Latics at the b2net in the 1st leg, and beating them 2-1.

They are heading into the game full of confidence after a run of good league results which seemed to kick in after the last cup game ironically and head to take on Paul Dickov's team, unbeaten in 4 games, with just 1 loss in 7.

It's been a tough journey for the lads who have seen off strong League One opposition to get to the Northern final in the form of Notts County and Preston and after the League One win over Bournemouth on Friday, we spoke with Coach Mark Crossley who told us they can pull it out of the bag again.

You're 90 minutes away from Wembley - it's the game everyone wants to be selected for on Monday night isn't it?
"It is yes. I think we've tried not to mention it, but it's obviously going to be in our thoughts now. They'll come in on Sunday but training will be very light - we don't want them to pick up any injuries.

"We've just reminded them after the game to make sure that they look after themselves this weekend, eat plenty, drink plenty of fluid (not alcohol!) and rest because it's a massive game and a massive chance for a lot of them to go and play at Wembley - for all of us. I've played in cup finals myself and it's very special."

You're unbeaten now in the JPT, which Oldham can't say, is that a big psychological advantage for you going to Boundary Park?
"I think the win tonight is more in the player's mind, confidence has to be lifted by tonight's performance, well, the last two games. That's a positive from our point of view as coaches - we know we'll be going into the game full of confidence, but also on the back of that, we've been up there and had a heavy defeat so I guess that will there as well - but we have a lead to protect, we won't go there and sit back, we can't, it won't work if we do. I think if we can score the first goal we'll have a big chance."

Are any players cup tied?
"Neal Trotman and Liam Ridehalgh will be unavailable for selection, they're two players we'll miss but we're quiet pleased with the way everyone performed against Oldham here so, we'll be as strong as possible.

"We don't have many injuries, just Jimmy Juan on the treatment table. Westy (Craig Westcarr) is back and he'll train Sunday, so there's another option - he'll be involved in the squad, though whether he'll play, I don't know, but we'll be fully equipped apart from Jimmy."

Paul Dickov was sitting behind me tonight - what will he have taken from the game, what will he see as the threats?
"He'll see a very, very spirited performance like when we played Oldham in the first leg, sometimes, when your managing a team, you don't see things - the only things he can have seen tonight are positives for us."

Oldham have had a break and won't play this weekend - will that have helped them?
"The more rest you get ... Shane (Nicholson) will tell you, 48 hours is not a lot of time to recover to go into a very important game, so advantage Oldham from that point of view - but momentum-wise, it's with us after the last two games."

They may be lethargic?
"Yes, hopefully!!"

A trip to Wembley would be a huge boost for everyone. Including the fans…
"We've said it all along - they've been tremendous this season. The gates have still been up - tonight's gate at 6,900 was amazing - and they get behind us when we need it all the way through. They've been the same in the JPT and all we ask is that they keep behind us, we feel now that things are starting to move forward."
