Worth a tenner to cushion the blow.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Just Back.
1st Half: has largely been said.We played better than all of us there probably expected. Of course there was a lot of
concern and even nervousness but Town got off to a flyer and played some good stuff. Matt and Vernam linked up to
provide some real hope. Summerfield continued his worthy efforts to drive Town forward and I have to say (red cross
if you must) I thought Dixon looked O.K. If we had gone in 2/3up at half-time there could have been no complaints.
Cynically
You could say, “But we weren’t 2/3 up!” “We were playing a rubbish team” “If he’d picked X or Y we would have won.”
2ndHalf: They obviously had a half-time bollocking and came out a different team. I was disappointed when we conceded that the body language seemed to portray negative vibes - l suppose this is about confidence but Summerfield appeared the only one to be trying to rouse the others. I think we need more leaders on the pitch. However Town held up and Vernam had a great effort from the edge of the box that rattled the bar near the end.
It is about confidence. It is about momentum. It is about a bit of luck. All cliche l know.
We can talk of leadership from the top.We can talk of Management. We can talk of engagement etc etc
BUT I am trying ( at this point ) to talk about today and the team.
Next week is Luton and that might spark a different conversation............ In the meantime UTMM

As others who were there have posted, we dominated the 1st half by keeping possession. It helped that we had 3 in the centre of midfield against their two but we also pressed them really well. Good finish after good work by Vernon and Dixon.
They, as most expected, came out after a real ear bashing at h-t and sadly we capitulated inside 90 seconds.

Vernam had a great effort on the turn pushed over and Davies had to do better with his free header.

Heard bits of Slades post match interview which seemed to focus on the referee. For me the ref was one of the better performers on the pitch and I, nor anyone else on this thread, has mentioned the evidently stonewall penalty we were denied. Deluded or is the pressure beginning to show?

A much improved performance. Clarke, Summerfield Rose and Vernam the star performers for me today.

I don't seem to recall there being any outcry from JT on the commentary either....

The Evening Telegraph commentary said something about a penalty appeal when Vernam went down after being sandwiched in the Colchester box.

Call me a cynic but probably part of his plan to avoid awkward questions on Asante.
