April fools

So please I swapped shifts for this.

Come on Town

I can only hope that Jones and Matt have been rested

Come on Town!!

Great, paceless and pointless up front for us, please let me be eating humble pie at 9.30 ::)

Come on Town(100)

Wow !
Only just asked why there was no match thread, seems you started it as I posted lol
UTM

Cmon town!

Brandon Comley starts for Colchester

UTM

It was started 15 mins before your thread. Are you really that slow at typing ?  :P

Looks a low crowd

Dembele not rested then

Surley we can put out a better team than this .  win or loose that is a poor team

Quoted from Madeleymariner

Great, paceless and pointless up front for us, please let me be eating humble pie at 9.30 ::)

My thoughts as well. Can only hope we're still level at 60 minutes for Matt and Jones to come on -  trouble is Dembele will be spent.  

Nice one James 😤😤😉

McKeown must have been unsighted.  :-/

Get in Hooper

More players putting themselves forward for 'resting'

Hooperman!

Get in, start again now.

Quoted from headingly_mariner

Looks a low crowd

Is that because they're all sat down?

There was a big crowd in front of macca he must of seen it late. Get in hooper

Hooper did very well to hold off his man and slot home UTM

League two football I tell ya

Was literally just about to say that town bore me, now I love them again  ;D

7 minutes in and my score prediction is out the window

We're still level - 50 minutes to go  (ok)(ok)

👏

Hope this goal gets us going, would be nice to edge our way to a positive GD as well as the 3 points.

Hope we storm them and win this

Decent half chance for Summerfield

Look very limited Colchester

Looks like Forest Green will be the next to replace their manager.

Their number 21 looks a bit of a threat with pace.

Demebele hits both posts

Is the refs whistle perminantly glued to his lips or something?

Not a great start for Jack Lester either..

Some excellent passing from summerfield this half

Should be leading at half-time. Reckon we will win 3-1

Wow those last 5-10 minutes were lively. Hopefully come out like that after half time and get a couple of quick goals

Quoted from Hagrid

Demebele hits both posts

Should have put it away.
As much as I like the lad how long can we wait for some end product from him??

Summerfield had a great half.

Average first half. Summerfield looking a class above. Look how good we can be if we pass the ball in the deck for all the happy clappers who said it was impossible for league 2 players

Quoted from barralad

Not a great start for Jack Lester either..

Don't think he has been appointed their manager yet

Ah sorry I stand corrected...

5 of our subs would be in my starting line up . looks poor

Not bad. not good, Summerfield showing the other 21 players how to pass a ball quickly, but another stupid goal due to Maccas lack of abilty in his 6 yard box I would of caught that cross and I only play 6 aside now

Looked better towards the end of the half, but my god both teams are dire. Colchester are no better than half the teams we played in the conference, which doesn't say much about us at the minute. At least when we've actually played a ball along the floor, we've looked better. Some of Summerfield's passing particularly has made the game bareable.

Fog or mist just beggining to get worse

Wipe yer lense mucker on the IFollow stream

Struggling to see the players on the Main Stand side from the back row of the Upper

And there first chance another flipping goal

FFS

This is GTFC. A great save from the opposition keeper= goal to the opposition a minute later.

Ah well - didn't quite make 60 minutes at level - any subs on yet?

Slade breaks form. His first sub off is not Dembele but Hooper for Matt

Good grief.  Colchester fifth from bottom making us struggle. We need the fog  to thicken quickly.
I am worried about Saturday

0/12 away from home this season, this would be a pathetic result. Sort it Slades!

PENALTY

2-2 (lol)

Phew!

Get in

Good lad Jonesy. 2-2

Smoke screen

Six minutes..C'mon Town

Thought it was fog

THE FOOTBALL GODS 13TH POSITION IS OURS

We have actually managed a comeback. Still bad though.

Crazy that Matt and Jones got so little game time - still they might win it for us yet?

We deserved to win that I think Colchester were poor

Slade out. Not good enough against another poor team.

Both teams poor

Bit rubbish really, we always seem to be chasing the game regardless of the quality of the opposition. A decent 20-30 minute spell rarely ends in us scoring and inevitably it's the other team who grab one.
Don't know what to make of it, 10 games in and it all still looks so muddled.

Another pile of doggy pooh, another game without a clean sheet and made to look v ordinary against a team that hadn't got an away point this season.

Jaiysimi (or however you spell it) was very good when he came on. I'd imagine he's pushing dembele and woolford for their places. And if Jones and Matt aren't our front 2 when I hear the team read out on Saturday, I may cry. In all honesty, I fear for us Saturday. Colchester were utter shite, and despite creating much more than them, we still couldn't beat them.

1 slight positive, we came from behind twice

Poor crowd tonight. Reaping the rewards.

Going by the table I don't think Lincoln are much better than us, so I'd have it as evens on Saturday.

I can't wait for the telegraph to put a positive spin on this one .....  which player will be saying .... we must build on this , we must push on .... yawn . Bores the intercourse out of me ....

we are boring to watch, played better football under biggy, I honestly think this is going to turn out to be another daft mistake by that board room of coffin dodgers by employing slade. Yawn FC

Why we cant just keep putting the crosses in when we have the chance instead of dithering about until we lose it is bl***y frustrating. While DJ and Dembele are skilfull they tend to overcomplicate it and we just end up losing the ball. The coaches should replay the game with them and drill it into their brain "This is what we are trying to do lads, what the fcuk are YOU trying to do?" They are not alone in that though.

Maybe its just me?(anger3)

Just give Chris kinear a ring at Dover and beg him to save your club fenty

I think DJ has decent decision making. He gets into the box and tries to play it low across the box. Dembele seems to go absent out wide and offers little support. I think he would be much better as a wide front man on the shoulder in a 4-3-3.

The main issues are we have nobody in midfield picking up the second ball and our defence always looks like conceding.

Sorry but that was awful. The best spell was when the fog thickened for quarter of an hour and we could see sodomist all.

Colchester going forward were decent with a bit of pace and the ability that go past players. At the back they were shocking and a better side would really have punished them. Despite the flack they get the back four are decent enough defensively, but get little support. The long ball led to our first goal but also led to a painful display.

Couldn't go tonight but listened on RH but apart from the lad who got their goals both sides sounded pretty poor, only positive as Hagrid said is we came from behind twice DJ needs to start for me but not sure where,

It's foggy as Fudge and what do we do most game, HOOF, Idiocracy.

You don't wait for a bit of football fortune you go out and earn it.

Be careful what you wish for .... intercourse that ... fenty out

We're a point worse off than last year...

I am not trying to be confrontational with you but may i ask why you never seem to post on here when we win?

Quoted from pontoonlew

We're a point worse off than last year...

We're a lot worse off than just a point

An incompetent manager
Down 2k home fans
100% less hope
No Bogle
No defender under the age of 96
No Danny Andrew
Lack of enthusiasm for away travel
Another year down the road of Fentyball
Etc
Etc
Etc

We are average, however, possibly the sea-fog had an impact on the quality of the game? Just a guess

Colchester, a team of athletes with one good player. Unfortunately, we let him score a couple of goals. First one after Dembele somehow failed to even attempt a tackle and then McKeown somehow let the shot straight through him. Second one a decent one-two in midfield as they broke forward and nobody went with Reid, giving him plenty of time to pick a spot. Very disappointing when we otherwise defended well. Nobody else in their team was up to much and we should certainly have done a bit more in attack though they were hardly as terrible as some seem to think.

Dembele just had to bury that chance before half time and it should then have been a different game.

Oh well, positives are that we came back (twice). Played one or two decent bits of footy on occasion, though not often enough. Hooper did well for his goal though struggled after that due to a knock, good options on the bench for a change. Just not very convincing (yet, I hope).

You mean, it made less painful to watch.
