The League Two fixture between Chesterfield and Gillingham on Tuesday evening will see The Spireite Herald trial its new live text feed feature on its website and app for subscribers.

This is an exciting new development for all CounterPress Media sites as The Spireite Herald takes its coverage of Chesterfield to the next level. The live text feed will provide build-up and get subscribers ready for kick-off before updating readers on the key moments of the match as it progresses.

The feature will be easily accessible and easy to follow for subscribers with, of course, no adverts getting in the way. Just coverage and reporting of the Spireites – as it should be.

Paul Cook's side will aim to return to winning ways on Tuesday night after losing 2-1 away at Rotherham United in League Two last weekend.
