Despite a spirited performance from the Dave Bentley's youth team had to settle for a draw was in a game played at a windy Warminster Road on Saturday morning. Under early pressure Daniel Whatsize was forced into a couple of saves, however the Blues took the lead via a long ball pass which Jake Williams shot low past  past the 'keepers left. The ever influential Dan Gay began to boss midfield and Richie Holmes in defence began to shine as Chesterfield took a one goal advantage to half-time.

Defensive errors in the second half led to Mansfield gaining the lead in a two minute spell, but the team rallied very shortly afterwards and Josh Lowe equalised with a header from a Gray corner. Sandy Muller and Jimmy Adcock were the pick of the under 16's as the Spireites finished the last five minutes with 10 men due to a head injury to Chris Tingay.

Chesterfield: Whatsize, Grainger (Tingay 70), Algar (Clare ht), Adcock, Holmes, Muller, Clay, Gray, Bowery, Williams (Winfield 30), Lowe.

Subs not used : Malak, Darikwa.
