At the end of the 2009–10 season, Chandler's contract with Sunderland expired. He signed a two-year deal with Darlington, recently relegated to the Conference Premier.

On 13 January 2012, Chandler signed for Gateshead, along with Liam Hatch, for a nominal fee. [12] He made his debut the following day, scoring in a 2–2 draw against Braintree Town in the FA Trophy. [13] He agreed a new one-year contract with the club in May 2012 to cover the 2012–13 season. [14] On 6 July 2012, Chandler was named vice-captain at Gateshead following the departure of Kris Gate. [15] On 28 March 2016, it was announced that Chandler would leave Gateshead at the end of the 2015–16 season. [16]
