Blackpool and Burnley lead the way of upsets as West Brom snuff out shock result with late equaliser over Chesterfield.
“Hi from a native Sconnie (grew up in Green Bay - go Packers!),” says Peter Pearson. Nottingham Forest were having all the shots but Blackpool have silenced their growing momentum and double their lead! “It’s hard not to sound patronising, but beating us means a lot more to Chesterfield than beating them does to us.” Any West Brom fans out there agree? They are in their 73rd minutes so there is still time for West Brom to get back into it. A cruising victory for Brighton now. He rises above the rest from a corner to head home. But it’s another penalty for Ipswich and they are crusing. “The great Bratwurst debate,” Julian says. Brentford v West Ham, Coventry v Wrexham, Luton Town v Wigan Athletic and Grimsby Town v Burton all kick-off at 5.30pm. I was caught up in all the goals earlier but I picked up a bit of Arsenal team news which could interest some Gooners reading. I feel very happy to be a part of this club and to be in this city so I will continue to give it my all.” This is not the end of the

Chesterfield 3-3 West Brom: Brandon Thomas-Asante hits stoppage time equaliser to take National League side to replay after Armando Dobra's brace looked to have ...
Some of their fans delighted in it a little too much, invading the pitch and goading the home support. But the National League club were never likely to roll over. They were back on level terms just five minutes later. But there was nothing in the way of sustained pressure and Chesterfield still enjoyed their moments, with sub Kabongo Tshimanga seeing a shot deflected into the side-netting.
