First half goals from Gus Mafuta and Luke James put Pools in a commanding position approaching half time at the Proact Stadium before Peter Kioso’s own goal gave the hosts hope going into the second half.
But that hope was short lived as a Gime Toure brace and another from Mafuta saw the away side claim their biggest win of the season so far.

Had very little to do except make a few comfortable claims. Could do little about the goal conceded. | Other 3rd Party Photo: Mark Fletcher

Excellent bombing forward down the left side but once again just lacking the final ball. | Other 3rd Party Photo: Howard Roe
. Fraser Kerr - 7
Much more convincing at the back and covered things very well on occasion as Chesterfield looked to get in behind. A comfortable evening. | Other 3rd Party Photo: Leila Coker
