A Huge TNT Sports Game The Highlight Of A Big Weekend

By Sam Elliott

Chesterfield continue to keep the rest at arm’s length but this weekend brings the opportunity for the chasing back to reel them in a little.

The live TNT Sports game is a big one as the leaders go to third place Barnet and all bets would surely be off if they leave north London with three more points in their back pocket.

On Tuesday night, yet another home win - this time against Altrincham - pushed them 12 points clear. They still have a game in hand too and anyone with hope of the Spireites slipping may have to admit defeat if they win again at the Hive.

The Bees are one of the clubs not waving the white flag quite yet and after four wins from five in the league, this represents an opportunity and the cameras will be there to see if Paul Cook’s pace-setters can jump another hurdle.

Bromley manager Andy Woodman is the Manager of the Month for December - and he gave up the title fight weeks ago.

The Ravens, in second spot, have launched Project 30,000 and hope for a big gate when they host Boreham Wood at Hayes Lane.

The four sides who won promotion last season currently occupy the bottom four slots.

Every weekend is big when you’re battling down the bottom. Phil Brown takes charge of Kidderminster for the first time, the basement boys are at home to Aldershot Town.

AFC Fylde can jump out if they beat York City, who are only three points above the dreaded dotted line. Ebbsfleet United host Hartlepool United, themselves hardly clear of trouble.

Altrincham earned a lot of praise despite defeat on Tuesday at Chesterfield and they’ve got another tricky away trip, they go to Southend United while Gateshead’s next stop in their play-off push sees them go to Dorking Wanderers.

Eastleigh look to get over their FA Cup exit with victory against Oldham Athletic.
