- Richo rues Lester absence
Chesterfield boss Lee Richardson has admitted that his side are missing the influence of injured top scorer Jack Lester.
The 32-year-old has scored 15 goals in 18 appearances for the Spireites since his arrival from Sheffield United in the summer, but is currently sidelined by a leg injury sustained in the 2-1 win over Milton Keynes Dons.
Richardson said: "I think that any team in this division would miss a player of Jack's quality. He is a proven goal scorer and he carries a real threat.
"He had scored six goals in his last four games prior to his injury and you will obviously miss that kind of contribution.
"But he will not play until he is 100 per cent ready to return. Hopefully that will be sooner rather than later."
