SPIREITES TO REWARD SUPERFAN

The Spireites have announced some great prizes to reward the loyalty of Chesterfield fans which boost the coffers the most in Coca-Cola's 2007 Buy-a-Player competition.

All entries until the closing date of 25 April 2007 will count toward's the club's very own transfer fund so there's a guaranteed sum by the end of the competition.

But before then Chesterfield fans have got a chance to win the Spireites an extra £250,000 with a special draw, as well as £10,000 for themselves.

All fans which enter before February 7 will automatically go into the hat for the draw to win a cool quarter of a million, with the winners announced live on Soccer AM on February 10.

The Spireites fan who enters the most by that date will win VIP tickets for Chesterfield's following home game against Port Vale on February 17 with hospitality and free drinks thrown in.

Fans need to simply text in the unique code on special bottles or multipacks, along with the word Chesterfield to 80094, or enter free on-line at www.coca-cola.uk/football.

Chesterfield manager Roy McFarland said: "We want to spread our net right across the local community so no Coke label is thrown away without being registered for Chesterfield FC."

Meanwhile, fans travelling to Millwall on February 10 on the official supporters coach will each receive a bottle of Coke as a gift from club chairman Barrie Hubbard, who will be encouraging fans to use the code on the bottle to text in and earn extra money for the Spireites.

And the fan who enters the most between every home league game will receive a replica shirt personally signed by their favourite player.

Whoever enters the most before the close of the competition in April will win a unique can't be bought prize. It's the chance to spend a matchday with Roy McFarland, including watch a game from the Spireites subs bench.

One in every two packs of Coca-Cola and Coke Zero is a guaranteed winner towards the club's fund with prizes ranging from 50p all the way up to £100,000.

Whichever fans lands one of the £100,000 club prizes will also net a personal sum of £10,000.

Upon entering, Spireites fans will find out instantly if they are winners of the money for their club.
