Tom Denton and Scott Boden were the scourge of National League defenders, but not this one
The Spireites' attacking duo formed an effective understanding at the business end of the season, reminiscent of so many 'little and large' partnerships.

He knew nothing about Boden before the poacher arrived from Gateshead in January and plundered 10 goals in 15 games.
It's been a pleasant introduction.
"I can't speak highly enough of Bodes," said Chesterfield's Player of the Year.
"He's worked hard and takes his chances.

"He's built up a very good partnership with Dents as well."
Denton is the targetman, the one who won the flick ons for Boden to run onto, or held the ball up to allow others to join the attack.
His 6ft 5ins frame and aerial ability make him a defender's nightmare, unless of course he's on your team.
"You know, if you're in a tight situation, you can rely on Dents nine times out of 10, to either win it and you're on the front foot, or he's going to be a handful," said Evans.
"He's not going to just let them head it back and you're running back to your own goal.
"It's a massive help from a centre-half's point of view."
