Chesterfield defender Haydn Hollis suffers ruptured achilles
Chesterfield have suffered a massive injury blow with news that Haydn Hollis has ruptured his achilles and will play no further part in this season.
The centre-back hobbled off after half an hour in the win against Eastleigh on Good Friday.
The 28-year-old, who recently signed a new contract, is facing several months out and is probably likely to miss the start of next season as well.
“It is a rupture so it is a serious one,” Spireites manager James Rowe said.
