The Paul Cook Interview. Spireites Hope To Net A Win Against The Cod Army


Friday 19th April 2013


It may be the penultimate game of the season and the last away game as Paul Cook and his team travel to Fleetwood this weekend, but that doesn't mean that anyone is 'demob' happy.

With the play offs still a mathematical possibility after both Chesterfield and fellow contenders Bradford lost their midweek games, Cook knows that there is still everything to play for, and he will be travelling to Highbury, no doubt hoping to avenge the 2-1 defeat at the hands of Plymouth Argyle.

Spireites Boss Paul Cook made no secret of his frustration when speaking to the press after the game on Tuesday night, but, as he spoke with The Chesterfield Post this morning - pre Fleetwood - that frustration is still evident Listen to the interview in full below.

Cook (above) made no secret of his frustration when speaking to the press after the game on Tuesday night, but, as he spoke with The Chesterfield Post this morning - pre Fleetwood - that frustration is still evident. He admitted that the season is not over yet and that he expects the players to turn up this weekend for this - yet another crucial game.

He also admitted that he remains frustrated with the general lack of desire which seems to prevail in football these days and that the 'love of football' is not always in the game right now.

Fleetwood have had a flying start to their life in the Football League, and are currently just one place and one point behind the Sprireites. Boss Graham Alexander says that he feels the play off contenders will not be decided until the last game of the season but feels that, even though they too have what he termed an "outside chance", they have much to be proud about - and to look forward to.

Jack Lester will not travel to Fleetwood as he is still recovering from a back injury but Cook confirmed that there are no other injury concerns.
