What an uninspiring and unimaginative series of friendlies!

I have said this before, probably a year ago, but ...........

Chesterfield's twin town is Darmstadt. SV Darmstadt has just achieved the amazing feat of gaining promotion to the top tier of the Bundesliga, finishing runners up to Ingolstadt 04 after beating St Pauli 1-0 in their final game. They achieved this only a few seasons after bankruptcy. Wouldn't a friendly against such an ambitious German club be ideal? Especially when there is actually a better reason for it than ....... Chris Turner used to manage Hartlepool?

Wouldn't you like to see a different style of team? A team you would never normally get to see?

I would like to see a foreign club come to play us at the Proact.
