It hasn't been the best of seasons so far for Chesterfield Football Club.

They're currently bottom of League Two, staring relegation in the face.

But on Sunday all that will be forgotten when around 18,000 Spireites will follow the team down to Wembley for the final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy against Swindon Town.

It's their first visit to the home of football in 17 years.

They have never before won a Football League Trophy and the fans are excited.

But despite being in a higher division, Chesterfield will actually go into the game as underdogs.

According to Chesterfield player Jack Lester, who played at Wembley for Grimsby Town, the key to getting a good result is handling the "Wembley Experience".

"It all depends on the individuals' character. Some will relish it and they're the ones that you want to play. The people that handle it best- they'll be the ones who will probably win on the day."

The backroom staff has plenty of Wembley experience too.

Physio Jamie Hewitt played for the club the last time they reached Wembley in 1995 and Chief executive Chris Turner and John Sheriden have both won there as well.
