When the new Chesterfield FC Women's home and away kits were released a few weeks ago they caused quite a stir. The new shirts, produced to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the club were instantly incredibly popular.

I spoke to Ric from Hope + Glory Sportswear, the company behind the shirts, to talk about their ethos, the teams they have worked with and the process behind designing and manufacturing a football shirt.

In our second 'Meet the Fan' I spoke to Darryl Carpenter, who has been supporting Chesterfield FC for over half a century.

We spoke about his favourite memories of watching the team, losing the faith in recent troubled times and how good it would be just to make one appearance for the club you love.

Tommy Lee goes down as one of the most successful and popular players in modern times at Chesterfield FC, with two league titles and a cup win under his belt.

For nearly 10 years he was a reliable presence in between the sticks at Chesterfield FC and Tommy joined me to talk about his long career with the spireites.

With his electric pace, long hair and fiery temper Dave Caldwell was a cult striker everywhere he played. With spells at clubs like Chesterfield, Mansfield and Torquay he enjoyed a successful goal scoring career in the 1980's.

Dave joined me to tell me some funny stories from his football career, his interesting spells in Belgium and South Africa as well as his move into business after retirement.

Lee Francis spent a couple of seasons at Chesterfield FC after joining on loan from Arsenal in 1990, including playing in a playoff final in just his 5th appearance. The defender was a key member of the team until leaving the club in 1992.

He went onto play non-league football for a variety of clubs before spending four years learning the knowledge on his way to becoming a London Cabbie.

Volodymyr starting following Chesterfield FC just over 5 years ago and the supporter, who lives in Lviv in Ukraine, is now well known on social media for his love for the team.

He joined me to talk about being a long distance Spireite, what the club means to him and his highlights supporting the club.

Dave Waller was a prolific striker who found himself at Chesterfield after spells with Crewe and Shrewsbury in the 1980's. Loved by the fans he scored some amazing goals including an incredible winner vs Halifax.

He joined me to talk about his early career, the attributes needed to be a goal scorer and highlights from his career at Chesterfield which was cruelly cut short by injury.

I've had a few goalkeepers on the podcast before but Chris Marples is the first goalkeeper and wicket-keeper that I've spoken to.

We talked about juggling football and cricket throughout his career as well as his memories of playing for Chesterfield FC, Stockport County, York City and an epic cup run with Emley.

When Scott Griffiths joined Chesterfield FC on loan at the start of the 2010-11 season he joined a team that was on its way to the League 2 title, playing some amazing attacking football along the way.

Scott joined me to talk about that title winning season, his early career at Dagenham and Redbridge, a big move to Peterborough and ending his career at Luton.

After a long association with Oldham Athletic Mark Innes joined Chesterfield FC in December 2001. The left footed defender/midfielder went on to spend four years with the Spireites before moving on to Port Vale.

Mark joined me to talk about 7-0 defeats, red cards, relegation scraps and the pros and cons of being a left footer.
