Here’s what Town supporters have been saying online...

@mattlockrhodes: “Went to so many atrocious Chesterfield games in between Cook and Rowe. Christ, games like tonight feel good! So proud of the team.”

@theoriginalNHJ: “Fantastic @ChesterfieldFC tonight. Depleted squad, turn up and win with fantastic support.”

@BenSportsStory: “What a day to follow the Spireites - up there with some of my favourites watching the club. It was nervy at times (as expected, Salford proved to be a tough test) but brilliant, battling team performance got Town over the line and into that all important third round draw.”

@JT_Spire: “Takes quite a bit to get me excited about Town after what we've been through the last 5 years. But that is an incredible team performance and an immense display. Congratulations to you all. Get in!”

@benaramsdale: “After five years of toxic ownership and horrible football - we've got a football club, a manager and a team to be proud of. 12 first team players injured and they pull of a performance like that. Smiling from ear to ear thanks to this lot. 11 unbeaten.”

@DaveCoups: “Just landed back in deepest Worcestershire still heavily affected with man flu. Absolutely still buzzing about the performance, atmosphere with James Rowe’s barmy army & the win. So much so I’m going on the port & brandy & gonna watch the game.”
