Think DC was out subbed by his opposite number. Although totally agree with his changes and set up on the hour mark, we lost a higher possession percentage of the ball thereafter. Perhaps their bench was stronger in depth, but the changes for ourselves lost momentum. Sometimes it works out for the better, but in this instance it did not . |

Numbers have been confirmed for the first round FA Cup draw.
The U’s allocated ball number 13. Strangely no representation of any Essex non league team.
It’s time for a up for the cup run has ball no 77 does not represent are Essex Trophy holders, but their victors Berkhampsted. Nearest local side would be Hornchurch, but several sides we have been drawn with previously being Oxford City, Dover, Rushden .
A live televised game would invariably mean a tricky away fixture or Leicester . |

Looked solid, but unspectacular. Actually without Payne and Anderson thought we played quite well.
The best bet was to score from a set piece, which is not are forte, but Tuckers effort from the corner was the closest either side came to scoring. Must be the biggest side we have put out for a long time, with Digby and Williams solid pair in the middle. Draw was right with both keepers not over pressed. |

Colchester Council passed a motion to lift the barrier on Boxted Road for one hour after Colchester United games for a trial period.
The ball is now in the court of Essex Highways. |

Signed for the U’s ten years ago on a two year contract. Made 20 appearances has left footed midfielder but never really establishes a first team place when he got injured which kept him out most of the first season, on his return got another different injury which again kept him out the side for a long period and was then released by McGreal.
Condolences to his family . |

According to pre match interview it emerged that he has a serious hamstring injury, which unfortunately the opposition found out about between the Thursday and Saturday.
Seems Mullins coped better knowing than he did.
Somehow we need to find a makeshift centre forward sharpish or another bottom two finish looms .
The exciting times ahead have rapidly disappeared. |

Moves too raise the horizontal pole in United Way by the shuttle bus turning circle, has concerns raised in accessing the ground after match where motorists are unable at present to turn right from the car park into Boxted straightroad, which would ease congestion, with at present left only being available in leaving the site.
It comes as a motion will be proposed at a full council meeting, next week, to introduce a six-game trial to lift the barrier at Boxted Road following matches.
A trail period up to Christmas would mean pole lifted for a hour after match to ease further congestion .
Obviously the local councillor objects to the proposal, highlighting traffic congestion in the surrounding Chesterwood area . |

COLCHESTER United's match against Port Vale will now take place on December 15.
Know the fixture list is compact but, midweek, couple of weeks before Christmas is not helpful to anyone trying to attend. Perhaps trying to avoid televised Chumps League games mid week later in the season (when it is warmer and dry ) .
Hold on, do not pencil it in not quite yet, could play on the second round FA cup Saturday, we are usually free then ! 🤭🤭. |

Ideal opportunity to gain some zip and rhythm through the team but was sadly lacking except one move near half time . Expected to much time on the ball.
Also an opportunity to gain an extra point with penalty win .
Only quality was Cole pen in shoot out [Post edited 3 Oct 17:51]

Pato consortium completes Northampton takeover.
Not got a very good history at Cobblers regards money and foreign investment, so will be interesting to see what develops there, especially after the collapse of a potential U’s takeover before. |
