A look into the future

We leave no stone unturned here at The Chronicle.

We've enlisted the help of Football Manager to predict where not only Chester FC will be come the end of the campaign, but where they will be in five years' time.

We promise THIS was done outside of work hours.

How many are off to Prenton Park?

For now McCarthy and Sharps will be looking no further than Saturday's trip to Tranmere Rovers.

The Blues have been allocated 2,000 tickets for the eagerly anticipated derby clash.

And we contacted the club to find out how many have been snapped up. The answer is HERE.

Revving up for Motors

It was a quiet weekend for the Chester FC Academy with neither their senior or colts side in action.

But there was a bit of news coming out of the Academy today.

The FA Youth Cup heroes will travel to Vauxhall Motors in the quarter-finals of the Cheshire FA Youth Cup on Sunday, December 4.
