As Chesterfield are our opponents on Saturday and they seem to have strung a few good results together since their new manager came in, I was interested to see what their manager's approach is.
His first game in charge was a 0-1 defeat to Barnet - this is what he had to say:
"Performances like that won't be accepted. It's important the lads cop onto the fact that we're a big club in this division."

The next game the players respond by going out and hammering League 1 Harlepool 6-1 in the FA Cup
Next they narowly lose out to Bristol Rovers 3-2 away, and he had this to say:
"We think we're a big club in this league. Big clubs don't keep losing games."

They then go on to beat Oxford 2-1, and then high flying Cheltenham 4-1.
Next up us.
Oh for a manager with that mentality!
