Personally I would like to see three more Colchester goals in the second half, it would be great to give a real tonking to a promotion rival Up the U's | |

100% an own goal for our first unfortunately for Sammie. Really enjoyed today's game as both teams tried to play football. I hope Innis' injury is not too bad as he really makes the difference to our team On a side issue - went to the Bricklayers after game for quick beer to thaw out and was most disappointed. Wish Fred & Hazel would return [Post edited 9 Dec 2017 18:06]

TS thanks for your thoughts. Very disappointing injury to Ryan Inniss but three valuable points. Why does JM need to come out and focus on the U's struggling to hang on to Szmodics in January. We should be bullish and look to secure promotion before there is any talk of losing more players. Come on JM focus instead on climbing to the top three positions rather than worrying about who might come in for Sammie. Up the U's | |

Fred and Hazel won't be going back to the Bricklayers unfortunately and the place has gone right down the pan under the new tenants. Dirty, no atmosphere and a severely restricted selection of drinks. As Noah has said several times on here the Victoria is a great pub, wide selection of real ales and real ciders and Sheena and Andy are excellent hosts. It's where I go now(but don't let that put you off) As for the game...both sides tried to play football, Exeter looked composed at the start but the first goal saw them struggle for the rest of the first half. We didn't look as solid after Inniss was substituted and had a tough 10 minutes after their goal but we weathered the storm. MOTM selectors got it right for a change and Szmodics is bound to attract attention if he keeps producing such performances. | |

Grecians to endure a grey day at Fortress Weston on 14:45 - Dec 10 with 1182 views | noah4x4 | Always good to welcome you Leadbelly, and any other real ale and cider affectionados including away fans that are prepared to behave in the unofficial Yorkshire Embassy. Was also a delight to welcome so many (gracious in defeat) Grecians before and after the game. I do enjoy Adnams beers, but the ever changing variety at the Victoria Inn is far more compelling. Travel advice to others thinking of joining us;... You can get the pub shuttle bus from the Victoria Inn (circa 1.40pm), or if you do fancy a cheeky extra pint (or two); buy a Match Day Rover (£2.50) when catching any of the many First Buses from outside HSBC to the Station or to Bruff Close then change to the main shuttle (same ticket). Much better option than:slurping the Green King dishwater at the stadium. A number of our groups also taxi share. Alternatively, from home, buy a Colchester Rover ticket (Match Day Rovers are technically only valid after noon). I travel to town (first pint in Playhouse); breakfast (Trotters recommended as beer available from 10:30); bus to Vic ( beer); bus to Bruff Close; shuttle; shuttle; bus to Vic (beer and chip); bus home....all for £3.80 (beer and breakfast extra). Fantastic public transport value. Also the Victoria Inn management is happy if you bring in your own food or a takeaway. Simply one courteous rule; eat it at a table or in covered back yard, not at bar. I have been asked to mention that contrary to previous rumour the Victoria Inn will be OPEN until around 8.30pm on both Boxing Day (away at Crawley) and upon New Years Day (home). But New Years Eve is strictly ticket holders only (reserved for regulars, but still time to become one - great live music every Sunday!). | | | |
