PART ONE: Our National League 23/24 table prediction

AFC Fylde The newly promoted side have added 6 players to their ranks. Spireites may be familiar with Gold Omatayo, who has featured for the likes of Yeovil, Wrexham and Kings Lynn town at National League level. The 29 year old striker hit 25 goals for the Linnets last season and bolsters the attacking ranks of a side who hit 80 goals in the sixth tier last season. The coasters have also added former Manchester United youth goalkeeper Theo Richardson. The stopper kept 14 clean sheets last season for Buxton in their debut season at National League North level. Due to Fylde comfortably winning the National League North last year, and strengthening the squad in key areas, we’re expecting them to hold their own in the National League this term. Predicted finish: 14th Aldershot Town To say that this season will be one of transition for Aldershot would be a huge understatement. Following their 18th place finish last season, 15 players have left the EBB Stadium, while the Shots have added 1

Opinion: Was Automatic Promotion a Realistic Prospect?

Opinion: Was Automatic Promotion a Realistic Prospect? A surprising win against Halifax and an expected loss against Solihull left us dreaming of a summer rebuild under the command of Paul Cook. The additions of Ollie Banks and Armando Dobra lead us into wonderland and dreams of an automatic promotion out of the National League. Little did we know at the time, that across the borders, much like the armies of Sauron, a threat to that dream was growing, unbeknown to the Spireites at the time! Wrexham with their masses of wealth and Notts County with the appointment of Luke Williams and the signing of Gateshead Sharpshooter, Macaulay Langstaff were set to set the league alight. Personally, Automatic Promotion was nothing going to be the aim of the Spireites this summer. Financially, no one can compete with Wrexham, it’s always been their league to lose. Notts are trying their best to challenge that. The Spireites currently find themselves in 4th. 5 points off 3rd with 2 games in hand o

MATCH PREVIEW: SOLIHULL MOORS (A)

MATCH PREVIEW: SOLIHULL MOORS (A) Chesterfield travel to Solihull Moors this weekend looking to put a stop to their 5-game winless run. The Spireites haven’t tasted victory since a 1-0 win over Altrincham on 24 January, a run which has seen them slip to fourth place in the National League. This weekend’s opponents were strongly tipped to be in the race for the top three this season after reaching the playoff final last June. However, Neal Ardley’s side have struggled to live up to expectations thus far, and currently occupy 12th position - four points behind 7th placed Boreham Wood. Chesterfield return to a stadium they played at twice last season - winning 3-2 in the National League before a crushing 3-1 defeat in the playoff Semi-Final condemned the Blues to another season in the fifth tier. LAST TIME OUT In their last fixture the Moors came from behind to rescue a point at Boreham Wood. Substitute Jamey Osbourne struck just moments after entering the pitch on 48 minutes, cancelli
