A crowd of 2,395 saw the Coasters’ first home game back in the fifth tier as first-half goals from Tyrone Williams, Liam Mandeville and Will Grigg put Chesterfield in command at half-time.
Ryan Colclough added a fourth shortly following the restart before Jon Ustabasi and Harry Davis pulled two back late in the clash on a difficult day for Adam Murray’s men.
It took just six minutes for the game to see its first goal, and it came after Colclough won a corner.
After the corner came into the 18-yard box and the Coasters cleared, Ollie Banks raced out wide and crossed in, where Williams was waiting to stick a leg out and scramble in.
