There was a welcome sight of Phil Picken returning to action from injury.  After his first start for the first team at the weekend, Danny Boshell put in another 75 minutes of football to help him get rid of any cobwebs in his play.

On 33 minutes Chesterfield increased  their lead following some good link-up play when the ball fell nicely for Adam Rundle to volley a screamer into the top corner from inside the box.

 

Leeds pulled a goal back just before the break when the highly fancied Mike Grella rounded the trialist 'keeper to slot the ball home.

Despite several second-half substitutions the Spireites continued to pass the ball round well and in the end thwarted  the home side.

 

Mark Crossley said: "Once again the lads played with the right attitude and all the hard work paid off with a good performance and a good result."
