Having read that almost £3.000 was raised by selling the Chesterfield F.C. / poppy badge I can only applaud those that donated. I always buy a poppy and slip extra into poppy tins whenever. I would have been really keen to have owned such a badge myself but for the fact it had the Chesterfield F.C. logo on it and as I don't like football I saw no reason to obtain one.
Perhaps next year a similar badge with the towns crest on it instead would appeal to people like me who don't follow football, and it would encompass all that is connected with Chesterfield {including football}
