League position: 1st Unused substitutes: Blair Sturrock and Paul Wotton This was Plymouth Argyle's biggest home win since they beat Doncaster Rovers by the same score in the Second Division on 5 September 1936.Comments:
League position: 23rd Unused substitutes: Stuart Howson, David Reeves and Andy Richmond This was Chesterfield's heaviest defeat since their club record 10-0 reverse at Gillingham on 5 September 1987. Amazingly, the Spireites hadn't conceded a goal in all of their five previous Division 3 games of 1987/88.
