FT: York City 2 v 1 Chesterfield: LIVE UPDATES (3pm)

Latty-Fairweather is finally stretchered off, both sets of supporters applaud, and Fishburn comes on for York in his place.

Latty-Fairweather is still down and is yet to be stretchered off.

This doesn't look good at all.

York's Latty-Fairweather is down with a head injury after colliding with Banks. The stretcher is on.

But his shot was blocked as he made his way into the box.

Dobra drives at the York defence and pulls the trigger but Watson saved with his legs.

Chesterfield still lead 1-0.

Half chance for York

A long ball forward is chased down by Akinyemi, he held off Palmer, take the shot on, but he drags it wide. Looked like a tight angle, to be fair.

Is still furious at that decision not to award a penalty and referee Elliot Bell shows him a yellow card.

Naylor's cross with the outside of his right foot reaches Quigley at the back post, it looked a nailed-on goal, but his close-range header was straight at keeper Watson. He's got to score that.

Big shout for a Town penalty!

Berry burst through the middle from inside his own half, he raced towards goal, he tried to lift the ball over keeper Watson, but the Spireites man claimed it struck a hand on its way. Got to say, it looked stonewall. Can't believe that wasn't given. The Blues bench is furious.

Rushes off his line and smothers the ball to stop Akinyemi in his tracks.

Makes a key interception inside his own area as York threatened for the first time so far.

Has just played two outstanding cross-field passes in a couple of minutes, first to King, and then to Banks.

'We've got Jamie Grimes' sing the Town fans in response.

0-1 on 16 minutes.

GOOOOAAAALLLL!!! 0-1

QUIGLEY!!!

Quigley puts Chesterfield in front on his 100th appearance for the club. Dobra and Banks played a one-two on the edge of the box, the former then drilled across goal, Watson parried, and Quigley was there to finish. 0-1.

Has the ball in the net with a lob from distance but the offside flag went up long before.

We are underway!

Chesterfield are in their blue and white strip, while York are in red and black.

The teams are out kick-off is minutes away!

What a day for football it is here in York.

The sun is beaming down and the stage is set for what should be a cracking game despite there not being much on the line for the Spireites. The same can't be said for York, though, they need the points in their fight against relegation.

There are 2,000 plus Town fans on the opposite stand and they are already in fine voice.

Don;t go anywhere - the teams will be with us shortly.
