New Chesterfield skipper has been '˜Mr Consistent'
Veteran Drew Talbot has been confirmed as Martin Allen’s new skipper, following the transfer listing of Robbie Weir.
It’s Talbot’s reliability that has earned him the armband, according to Allen.
“I think he’s been Mr Consistent,” said the boss.
“He’s 100 per cent committed, very consistent and steady.
“I just think he’s played very, very well.”

Seven years later he was released and spent 18 unhappy months at Portsmouth, before Jack Lester brought him back to the Proact in January.
Talbot has started all 11 of Chesterfield’s National League games so far this season, playing 990 minutes.
