Friday 3rd October 2014

There was good news for Spireite fans ahead of tomorrow's much anticipated derby clash with Sheffield United, with manager Paul Cook confirming that Daniel Jones, Sam Morsy and Gary Roberts are all recovered from their hamstring injuries and expected to feature against The Blades.



However the Spireites' gaffer (above), admitted that they are not guaranteed a return to the starting eleven and told The Chesterfield Post of the difficult decision he had team wise, "It's a difficult dilemma. For the first time I haven't picked the team. We have some players who are playing well, doing well in training and as for the formation, do I go back to a 'one' or change to a 'two'? The players will know tomorrow."

Talking of the previous game at home last Saturday, Cook said that they, "Had a go at the lads at half time as we want to play a certain way, passing the ball and being brave. I thought the second half against Notts County we started sloppy and on the back foot.

"However," the gaffer added, "the crowds were fantastic! The support second half was the best since I've come to the club. We were being beaten one - nil and the atmosphere was electric. I don't think the lads could have left another breath on the pitch. It's good to manage the club at the moment!"

Saturday's game at the Proact against Sheffield United will see a sell out crowd and will also feature applause on 8 minutes in support of club legend Ernie Moss, who is suffering from ill health and Cook conceded that even with the pressure of the 'big game' tag, he and the players can't wait to enter the pitch come 1pm, saying, "The build up is great. The tickets are sold out and it's the feel good factor. It's one I'm very much looking forward to. No-one wants to win more than me!"

In the opposing dug out will be Nigel Clough, son of course of legend Brian Clough - and the Chesterfield boss had nothing but praise for him telling us, "Nigel has had a fantastic career. He's probably had it difficult with his dad but he's been successful at all his clubs. He's a great lad and he's always willing to help us out with players.

"I haven't seen them play this year but Paul Mitchell has. We'll line up and concentrate on ourselves but we respect them and know how difficult a game it will be!"

One man who will feature in the Blades' line up will no doubt be Michael Higdon, a summer target of Cook - and asked about him, Cook said, "Michael's a good player. Sheffield United have acquired a very good Centre Forward. He's come back to England and joined a powerful club. We wish him every success for the future - apart from Saturday!"
