Good to see Hunt start.

No Green or Morris, has Hurst said anything about injury’s? Think we will miss Morris and his passing but saying that Hunt coming in doesn’t exactly weaken that aspect!

Looks like the same shape as Newport and Gillingham.

Morris injured from Tuesday, straight swap with Hunt.

No full backs but two CBs on the bench is an odd choice, maybe gives us the option to change shape? Hope to see JMD given a chance.

Morris not even on the bench is suprising

If we win today could be in a playoff spot, utm!

Edit: just seen above post didnt realise he was injured

I wish i knew how to do this

Is Battersby injured? Suspect Pearson is on the bench as he's thought to be the best non-keeper keeper

Quoted from Hagrid

I wish i knew how to do this

I'll dm you

I've bought one of those Apps from someone which allows all sports, movies etc but will still just use the radio coverage I've bought to listen to town on Saturdays. UTM

Is this game on DAB/FM please? Radio Humberside sport has been very quiet on twitter recently

Who's on the bench?

Wow colchesters ground is nearly empty

Currently in Whitby trying to get commentary on my iPhone, but struggling. Can anyone advise on an app please?

Great fighting in midfield by Harry

Pitch looks very hard today - both teams struggling to adjust to it so far

Quoted from WHYWONTYOULETMESIGNUP

I'll dm you

Would you dm me too please

It's very simple

Colchester have the ball in the back of the net but Nouble offside. Defence was all over the place though so bit of a warning to sort themselves out

We're too narrow defensively. If we keep letting Colchester wip in crosses like we have its not going to end well

All there best work is coming down our right hand side again  :(

If somebody could DM me on the Iptv / streaming would be appreciated  :)

Richardson is our only player so far today who seems capable of driving forward effectively with the ball. Everyone else can't get it under control on the hard pitch, or just takes the safe option of passing sideways or backwards instead of trying to make anything happen.

Passing practise, Sunday 0900

I actually really like colchesters commentator

My lad set it up (IPTV) for me, no idea how he did it but great being able to watch all the games that I can't make.

floated crosses are like trying to get compensation from Transpennine Express - a waste of time.

Shop scored for York, 1-0 up at Scunny

Great dig by Richardson

Does the wife know!

Bloody hell Taylor shoot.

This commentator is getting proper on my mammaries. :D

Might start moaning about Kiernan's lack of any end product on here today. Seemed to do the job for Clifton when we were 1-0 down at Walsall

We're so wasteful up front today, weather it be bad decisions, bad passes or poor movement

Efete has lost his mojo or league too is too tough for him.

Teams really have to earn a win against us these days don't they, no more rolling over like in the past.

HT.....0-0

Cut and paste from Tuesday night I am afraid. Pretty poor passing again in the final third. Its not really hard to see why Keirnan was surplus to requirements at Walsall despite honest endeavour - for me there are better options on the bench. Bit more quality and we can win this.

Neither side has got going so it's still all to play for in the second half.

Quoted from TAGG

This commentator is getting proper on my mammaries. :D

who is today's Co commentator?

A bit flat, but half expect it when the ground has about 20 fans in it.
Richardsons done some good things

JMD to come on and win it

We've been the better team but lack that cutting edge in the final third. Too many stray passes or bad touches in promising positions.

Efete has been atrocious again, he’s not coping with this step up and given Cropper was a big part of our play-off campaign, he has to come in.

We’ve offered very little again, we’re solid enough but we’ve only got one player on the pitch genuinely capable of scaring teams in Richardson

Same as Tuesday - pretty rubbish.  We just don’t seem to threaten at all.

How Kiernan manages to make the 11 each week is beyond me.  Hurst obviously plays him because he does a lot of running about, but absolutely zero end product.

Quoted from Mayaman

Efete has lost his mojo or league too is too tough for him.

To be quite honest I don't think Efete is that good a defender. Several times against Gillingham he was either out of position or ball watching. I prefer Cropper as a defender but he's not quite as good as Efete going forward. His plus is that amazing throw which is just as good as a cross or a corner.

You say that, yet we’re not conceding. His job first and foremost is defending. He’s doing that

The two down our right are again dross, most of there threat has come from that side.
Much like Tuesday Richardson our most likely, CBs good again.
Holohan looks better with Hunt in there, Harry has been Harry.
Need changes for the second half.

Gary Cohen

Quoted from Hagrid

He looks our weakest defender as well though, so if you’re hampering us going forward and you’re often out of position defensively, what exactly are you offering?

Very flat and difficult to watch. Not much else worth watching at the moment except perhaps Lincoln, Mansfield or Barcelona on La Liga HD.
I'll give Grimsby another 10 minutes to wake up!
8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Quoted from pontoonlew

He looks our weakest defender as well though, so if you’re hampering us going forward and you’re often out of position defensively, what exactly are you offering?

Disagree on our weakest. His pace gives us something the other 3 dont.

Going forward he looks devoid of confidence, i was at Orient, and he was playing like a right winger, since then attacking wise he’s gone backwards

Don't see what Kiernan offers at all. Works hard to get back defensively but he's very poor on the ball. Don't like to be too critical but he appears to be a downgrade on Sousa IMO.

I think we need to have one of our wide players as a more creative/technical player. Clifton and Kiernan are both runners and might be a better bet when we don't have as much possession and counter attack teams. But for me one of them should give way for a player with more ability on the ball. Obviously Clifton would be the one to keep on out of the two.

Has to shoot there

Brilliant move by richardson

I’d agree, our wide men work hard and do contribute but as wide men going forward they’re at times almost technically inept.

Kiernan and Sousa are one in the same to me…

Ref is absolutely garbage. Booked Efete for a tackle where he cleanly won the ball in the first half and is now letting Colchester get away without a caution for hauling Richardson down on the counter.

Also taylors doing a good job with flick ons and hold up play being let down a bit by those around him really

On Tuesday both full backs tucked in and left wide players time and space to control and look up. We tend to leave wingers unmarked as if to say go on then cross it, because we can defend crosses all day.

Town need to shoot a bit quicker.    Where's JMD?   He could change this

Ref seems to be off the pace to me

Quoted from Mayaman

Would be amazed if Hurst brings him on with the scores level. Can only see him getting 10 minutes max if Colchester go ahead.

Quoted from Hagrid

He looks it and commentary agrees, the ref is quite away from the action.

Who is this co commentator please

Quoted from Hagrid

Ref seems to be off the pace to me

Need to do quick counter attacks and then fall over in the box alot and our fans need to make loads of noise he'll eventually just give one coz hes clearly guessing

Anyone else lost the picture? I've got commentary ok

Quoted from Davec

Gary Cohen

Ref you are absolute excrement

Stone wall penalty that

Clear pen that

This referee was out of his depth in the conference, so no surprise  he's continuing in the same vein in L2.

Goal coming surely

Clear handball in the area missed there by him as well. Utterly dire officiating

Yes!!!! Harry again!!!

Goal machine!

Yessssssssssss shove that up your bottom ref

What a goal by clifton!

Oh Harry you beaut

Clifton, great goal

Get in our Harry

Lazy Clifton at it again

He’s shite that Harry Clifton isn’t he???

Quoted from lukeo

Lazy Clifton at it again

Whens anyone called him lazy!?!

oi oi!

Ooohhh get innnn!

Get in Harry!

Quoted from lukeo

Literally nobody has ever suggested he's lazy

Who needs mcatee when youve got lionel clifton

Another one for the Clifton detractors

Fecking hell, he’s a goal machine!

Oh ref you are absolutely clueless

Big delay on my stream but he's one of our own, get in.

Think we need to just make the pink kit our official second kit

How the fuck is that a Colchester free kick?!

Quoted from WHYWONTYOULETMESIGNUP

Think we need to just make the pink kit our official second kit

I actually don't like it but heyho.

Who would of thunk that Harry would be top scorer.

Be good to see a bit more of orsi

The Town fans are in good voice, sounds like 589 town voices are better than 2,500+ of their fans.

Smith is class!!

Two red crosses - very sad!!

My apologies... *Useless and out of his depth.
More like it?
Obviously tongue in cheek after some comments I've seen on here and social media the last few weeks.

I wish they would stop the replays when the ball is back in play again.

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Another one for the Clifton detractors

Quite right.
Not long ago, people were questioning him being part of the squad.

Jeez....

Latest....Bristol Rovers 3-6 Lincoln.

Smith just recreated the famous bobby moore tackle

Andy Smith is absolute quality.

How many Andy Smiths do we have on the pitch?  At least three.

Quoted from AndyGTFC

Andy Smith is absolute quality.

Need to keep it quiet the Targers got smashed again today, we don’t want him recalled.

30 seconds per sub plus a couple head injuries and the goal celebration its not that far off really

Quoted from promotion plaice

1:1 ?

Was hopeful rather than expectant today, but, once again, what a shift everyone from max crocombe to Taylor and of course our noisy bunch behind the goal, have put in. The ref has been somewhat, erm, below par, but let’s not take that away from a great performance

Lmao Hurst giving the home supporters behind him a 🤫🤫🤫

Hard won victory puts us 1 point off the play offs with a game in hand. Going up.

Get in...

FT...Colchester 0-1 Town

We're 1 point outside of the play-offs with a game in hand now, looks like we are the real deal.

Good result, much better second half. Stuck with it even though goals were flying in elsewhere!
:) :)

Safe journey home to all those happy Mariner fans.

Good win that

Was hurst shushing their fans at the end?

Smith MoM but also felt taylor did really well today, got so many flick ons and never really misplaced any of his passes to keep attacks going. Game management really good by the whole team. And cliftons goal was classy

Well managed game in the end.  Smith MOM.  A cut above.  

Great win. Much better second half from almost everyone - in particuarly midfield. Smith MOM by a million miles. Special mention to Richardson who when he gets use to the rigours of League football could be quite a decent player.

Another away day triumph, get in!

And big fan of PH shushing the home fans at the end.

Another away win, another clean sheet

Superb!

Maybe Hurst was getting stick off the home crowd for his ill fated stint at Ipswich.  Col U fans see the Tractor Boys as local rivals, although I doubt that's reciprocated as Ipswich's grudge match is The Old Farm against Naaaridge.

It matters not - Hursty can shush them to his heart's content for all I care.

Another great result on the road for the Mariners. UTM

We’re a cracking away side aren’t we, looked very comfortable second half without again creating all that much.

Great goal from Clifton and a cracking ball from Taylor. Holohan much improved and Hunt made a difference, Smith MOM.

I do still want to see us offer a bit more going forward as I think that’ll make us genuine play-off contenders.

Love a bit of PH sh1t housery, as rare as a Scunthorpe win 😂😂😂

Grinding out wins while we are missing key players, sign of the good squad that we have, when we click someone is going to get a beating.

Just brilliant. Colchester are likely to struggle this season but fantastic.
After a few years of indifference what a great time to be a Town fan

I haven't used this word lately but Andy is a Simpleton

A brief view of Maher was enough to see what a quality signing he’s going to be . When he gets a break as cb he’ll be hard to displace I think
