Season summaryFor much of the season Chesterfield were in the Second Division play-off race, but a late slump saw them fall off the pace before a resurgence at the end of the season took them up to tenth - five points off the play-offs. In the FA Cup, Chesterfield reached the semi-finals for the first time in their history, before being knocked out by Premiership side Middlesbrough.
