and live on Freeview channel 276
The Spireites are in desperate need of another senior stopper with Lucas Covolan suspended for the next three matches after his red card at Dorking Wanderers.
Covolan’s red means he will sit out the fixtures against Aldershot Town, Wrexham and Notts County.

"I think as all our supporters can understand, to get a keeper to come in and possibly be just cover for three games is nearly impossible so we have been put in a really difficult situation and we are going to try and make the best of that situation.”
Cook would not be drawn on whether the new goalkeeper is coming in on a permanent or a loan, but reiterated that he expects an announcement to be made soon.
He added: "I think at the minute we have been dealt a problem which we did not envisage having, and I think we have dealt with that problem which will probably be released at some point today by the club.”
