A 2-0 win secured three important points against promotion rivals Notts County.
Lee Bonis struck first with his sixth goal in as many games, with County keeper Kelle Roos scoring an own goal to seal the win.
Notts boss Martin Paterson blasted his team’s performance and admitted Spireites had been the better side.
He said: “Really simply, if you don’t run hard, more so than your opponents, if you don’t tackle in the middle of the football field and when you are high up pressing, if you don’t take the ball off them, and then when you do have it you don’t connect passes, away at Chesterfield in this league it is going to be a tough game for you.
"We did not look like cutting them open and getting that final moment. I think it is about people taking responsibility. I just think they played the game better than us.”
