I know it’s only the Vertu Trophy but that is just embarrassing! 😂 #Spireites | #Stags

🎦 Paul Cook spoke to 1866+ following the Spireites' Vertu Trophy fixture against Crewe Alexandra. Watch the interview here 🔽 #Spireites

“It is probably my worst defeat as a manager...I think a lot of lads have done themselves harm tonight haven’t they." Reaction from Paul Cook: derbyshiretimes.co.uk/sport/football… #Spireites

Chesterfield’s last two visits to Crewe Alexandra have ended: Crewe Alexandra 0-5 Chesterfield (Aug 17 2024) Crewe Alexandra 7-1 Chesterfield (Sep 2 2025) Will be few starker contrasts in the historical archives, I’d imagine. #Spireites

Given the status of the EFL Trophy, defeat at Crewe Alexandra could have passed without much noise. Key for Chesterfield was to ensure any result didn’t become the narrative ahead of a tough league trip to Walsall. Through that lens they fell a long, long way short. #Spireites

I understand if no one wants to read this...report: derbyshiretimes.co.uk/sport/football… #Spireites

You just can’t help but laugh at this point. #Spireites

Cookies walked past Tooley and pulled his wires out. 😂🤣😂🤣 #Spireites

FULL-TIME: Crewe Alexandra 7-1 Chesterfield A nightmare of a start to the EFL Trophy Group Stage for the Spireites. Emre Tezgel hit a hat-trick, whilst Calum Agius, Louis Moult, Adrien Thibaut and Oliver Armstrong also scored to hand Paul Cook's side a heavy defeat. #Spireites

FT: Crewe 7 v 1 Chesterfield It might only be the EFL Trophy but that is one of the worst results in the club's recent history. Embarrassing and shocking. None of them can go knocking on Paul Cook's door asking why they aren't playing in future weeks. #Spireites

⏹️ FT. #Spireites
