Paul Cook: 'Players are a credit to Chesterfield'

Chesterfield manager Paul Cook says that his players are "a credit to the club" despite their defeat to Preston North End in the League One playoffs.

Paul Cook has said that his players are "a credit" to Chesterfield despite being knocked out of the League One playoffs by Preston North End this afternoon.

The Spireites, who finished sixth in the table, suffered a 3-0 defeat at Deepdale, leaving them 4-0 down on aggregate.

Their manager told Sky Sports News: "The easiest thing to do is to come on and say what's gone right and what's gone wrong. At times like this, you must compliment the players on how well they've played through the whole season. They're a credit to the club. Our honesty was there for all to see.

"The most important thing is to congratulate Preston and wish them well in the final. They showed their quality today with some of their finishes and we wish them well at Wembley, as well as the other two teams [Sheffield United and Swindon] that are playing tomorrow night."

Chesterfield have only been in League One for one season, having been promoted as League Two champions last term.
