Lots of work, press and endeavour just a bit guilty of either under playing it or over playing it at times.

Get Hooper back on the right end Embleton back left get the ball down and keep it for a bit and we’ll be ok.

The overall performance is good, some pretty decent football at times, however we still look blunt in the final third - would love to see Pringle given a 30 mins or so to see if he can make a difference.

Harry Clifton looks like he's going to be one of the best centre-mids we've had for quite some time.

Why are we trying to walk the ball into the net? utterly ridiculous. Is there no one on the bench who has the bottle to SHOOT

Must be noted that some of our passing has been shocking. Not just RHJ who has set them on the attack by skewing simple passes to teammates.

Some good runs into the box from Vernam and Embleton but where are the shots? As Buckley would say, if you try to make a chance a bit better, you often lose it.

I can see us struggling against them as we play into the wind in the second half. A couple of big blokes up front, some big defenders, a long throw merchant and pace out wide could be difficult to defend when it is harder to clear

We are good enough to win this game and really need to get every point we can and hope we sign someone who isnt shot shy in Jan

Personally I think altho we hav created quite a few good positions and a good chance Colchester have looked the better side outside our box. They also has the best chance from an awful hall-johnson screw up reminiscent of the fgr game. Overall lucky to be 0-0 at half time.
For what it's worth I thought the lack of atmosphere could not get any worse than the Exeter game but this match may as well be being played on the moon in that regard...

Crowd down by 400 (10%). Is that normal for a midweek game?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Yes, when there's Champion's League live on the box.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.
