McGreal added: "There's a recognition of when the bigger teams turn up, we tend to turn up (as) individuals and when the lesser teams turn up, individuals don't tend to turn up and that's proved it again, from Swindon to Cambridge to Plymouth to (Grimsby).


So McGreal thinks we are a lesser team.......

Well Colchester really are massive.  Their high opinion of themselves is fully justified.  I kneel at their feet.

What I think he is trying to say is they were complacent and took things for granted when they were 2-1 up. It certainly felt like they just sat back when they came out for the second half and only showed any urgency in the last few minutes.

Well, we are aren't we. Can't really argue the fact that they're 5th and before last night we were 18th.
If we were 5th, we would be looking at a team in 18th thinking they were a lesser team and we should beat them. Some of us are probably even thinking that with the visit of Morecambe to us this weekend.

What is laughable though is their managers comments that they scored two good goals and let some poor ones in.

Also his moans about a foul by Hanson in the lead up to our 2nd goal. The ref gave them absolutely anything and everything, he cannot complain about officials at all.

I am sure the Plymouth manager said much the same thing after they played Colchester.

Colchester are f—k all a nothing club.
No history and no fans there attendance last night was shocking to say they are pushing for automatic promotion.

Imagine how frustrated you would be if during this season your side had been leading home and away against GTFC, and ended up with the grand total of 1 point.

I'd blame the manager  

Former teammate of Dave Challinor's isn't he??
