Frustrating
FT: Gillingham 1 v 0 Chesterfield Spireites did everything but score.
More reaction coming up on the DT website.
More subs - 81 mins
Metcalfe is on for his debut, and Drummond is also on, with Grigg and Markanday coming off.
Town sub - 76
Jacobs is on for Daley-Campbell, who has had a really good game. Surprised at that. But it’s an attacking player for a defender, I suppose.
Grigg and Dobra both stretch to reach Daley-Campbell’s brilliant cross but they couldn’t get there. How Chesterfield haven’t score yet is beyond me.
GILLS RED CARD
Ehmer has recived his second yellow, this time for a late tackle on Berry, and is given his marching orders.
Gillingham lead 1-0 but are a man down.
Good start
Chesterfield are controlling this half in the eary stages. Passing the ball really well.
Ehmer is booked for a late challenge on Dobra, who is causing problems. Chance for a shot at goal here...
Goal ruled out for Spireites
Markanday finishes a superb sweeping Chesterfield move but the offside flag is up. Great move.
Behind at the break
HT: Gillingham 1 v 0 Chesterfield
Flown by that half. Very watchable game. Two teams on the front-foot. The Spireites have hit the woodwork twice and Markanday had a big chance. Hosts threatening going forward as well.
