Ground out the result then. And Scunts and Imps lost.


After our first-half performance it didn't turn out too bad in the end  



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

Well, well how on earth did we scrape a point out of that? Have to admire the tenacity in the second half and we never gave up but we're not good. Colchester reminded me of a classic Hurst performance, threw a point away by sitting back, summed up by taking Norris (class act) off and bring the extra centre half on.
Even after we equalised they looked like they could have stepped up and won it,  but credit were it's due we showed some fight.

Good comeback, better 2nd half but the subs didn't seem to have any real impact again. Wright, Vernam and Cook had a run each and thats about that but its hard for them to get into the game if the balls flying 3 foot above all the time.

Not to mention the lateness of the subs.. Didn't we score from the free kick Wright won?

Hessenthaler MOM by a long way.  His mistake trying to clear led to their first goal though. Poor performances from Whitehouse and Hewitt with too many misplaced passes. Colchester should have been out of sight by half time. Great strike for the equaliser from Green. All in all a dogged performance in the 2nd half and managed to grind out a result

Positives are team spirit. We looked dead and buried at half time. Hess, despite maybe being at fault for the first goal had a good busy game,  Hanson again looked a handful although he was penalised seemingly every time for having the cheek to stand 6'4. Only other positive I saw was we actually came back from 0-2 and gained a point. Credit to the lads there.

Those positives aside, I wonder why the UEFA pro badge qualified Michael Jolley learned that football from the dinosaur area gets you anywhere nowadays. The ball was thumped forward from all angles, midfield not required. No industry, no creativity and no guile. So sad to see Grimsby Town playing like that, it isn't what I was brought up on and it won't get us anywhere at this level.

Hope to see a huge improvement on Saturday, I can't fault the lads work ethic but I'll not accept that style of 'football. Russell Slade would be delighted.
