Knill returns to plot Spireites downfall
CHESTERFIELD 1 BURY 3 Former Chesterfield assistant manager Alan Knill returned to Saltergate on Saturday and watched his side send Chesterfield crashing to defeat in their first home game of the Division Two season.
Knill, who took over as Bury boss in February, saw the Gigg Lane lads race into a 3-0 lead withint 40 minutes.
Chesterfield suffered a blow when they lost top striker Jack lester with an injury.
They visitors took the lead after just four minutes through Ben Futcher.
And 23 minutes later Efe Sodje made it 2-0 to Bury.
Chesterfield's woes continued when Andy Morrell added a third in the 40th minute.
The Spireties gave the fans a little hope when they reduced the arrears through Lloyd Kerry in the 53rd minute - but a dramatic fightback never materialised.
CHESTERFIELD: Lee, Picken, Page, Austin, Goodall (Downes 84), Lowry, Kerry, Harsley, Currie, Lester (Robertson 16), Ward.
Attendance: 3,728.
