Carlisle 0 U's 2 - Durham's ViewSun 28th Apr 2013 21:30 Never in doubt – brilliant warm sunshine, superb performance, magnificent support, overwhelming celebratory scenes at the end. No it was not May 2006 at Huish Park but April 2013 at Brunton Park.
Hartlepool 0 U's 0 - Durham's ViewWed 06th Mar 2013 21:45 Much debate has ensued following last’s night football concerning the standard of refereeing. The curiously named Turkish Official Cuneyt Cakir was lambasted for his decision to send Nani from the field during the Champions League encounter between Manchester United and Real Madrid.
Stevenage 0 U's 2 - Noah's ViewSun 03rd Mar 2013 11:15 Our 2012-13 away day pre-match ritual has always included breakfast at "Ponti’s" (Liverpool Street Station) at the table favoured by Tom Cruise in ‘Mission Impossible’. Now, having witnessed two consecutive away victories (n.b. we missed Bramall Lane), we superstitiously can't decided whether we should eat elsewhere next time.
Doncaster 1 U's 0 - Durham's ViewSun 06th Jan 2013 18:30 Saturday 5th January 2013 will unfortunately go down in the club records as a record equalling eighth successive defeat and arguably our unluckiest defeat for many a season.
Crawley 3 U's 0 - Noah's ViewWed 02nd Jan 2013 18:30 Watching the warm up shooting practice, it occurred to me that Gavin Massey, Freddie Sears, Woody, big Clinton and others were all struggling to beat Carl Pentney and/or even hit the target. It was however encouraging seeing how newcomer George Porter was consistently tucking them away with much precision before 3.00pm. But sadly, he didn’t get a single chance within the game itself.
Crewe 3 U's 2 - Durham's ViewMon 12th Nov 2012 17:56 JD has declared last week as shocking and it is difficult to dispute that with three defeats including a capitulation to the Clarets in the FA Cup, a defeat to the Magpies in a disappointing game at the WHCS and on Saturday a seemingly unassailable position at half time which translated into a narrow 3-2 defeat.
U's Reserves 2 West Ham Development 1 Tue 16th Oct 2012 18:12 Noah gives us his low down on the U's reserves' victory over a the Hammers' development side.
Scunthorpe 1 U's 0 - Match ReportSun 23rd Sep 2012 20:41 So Saturday September 22nd, 2012 entered the record books as marking the worst ever start to a Colchester United season ever. In our 75th season this is hard to take and in truth there appears to be no end in sight.
Tranmere 4 U's 0 - Match ReportSun 02nd Sep 2012 21:39 Fortunately I was staying in the West Midlands this weekend and have only just arrived home so have not been able to pen this match report for 24 hours, which has allowed me to once again achieve a degree of sanity following the abysmal second half capitulations that I witnessed at Prenton Park.
