VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Cook pleased with 'crucial' win
Chesterfield manager Paul Cook told BBC Radio Sheffield:
"It was a game that if we didn't win today it would make it a challenge to get in the play-offs.
"Every point is vital and today I told the lads at half-time that this is our season.
"We must remain strong and patient and to the man I felt we did that."
