Chesterfield FC: Player-based information
Here are links to files with basic information about every first-team player:
1867-1891 1891-1899 1899-1909 1909-1917
Here is information on players who were on the club's books but did not appear in a first-team, competitive match.
I have split them into four files for easier access.
These players will have typically played in a first-team friendly, a reserve or "A" team match or a youth team game. This is a sort of "rolling draft" and is very incomplete, but it is a big file, for that! If you think you should be in it, or you know someone who should, please get in touch.
