Well. It played out 3-0 although the Red card had a huge part to play. We had a decent go with 10 men but never really in it from that point. Cook too slow with the subs. Oldaker should walk home.
Yep we look fucked availability wise. I make it:
Daley - Campbell - RB
Tanton - RB
Dunkley - CB
Palmer - CB
Araujo? - CB
Naylor - CM
Metcalfe - CM
Fleck - CM
Madden - CF
Going to be tough until Christmas.
Can see us getting tonked on Tuesday.
It sounds daft at this point in the season, but given our poor home form - 19th worst in the League - we need a win here.
Last 2 games we have been terrible, look disjointed, with some poor decisions from Cook (I still love you Paul) - such as leaving subs far too late against Harrogate...
Yes he has, although it won’t matter as the 3 rotate constantly anyway. For me Mandy might be the key to more chances. Dobs and Markanday are similar (Dilan more end product at the min). Berry is great off the bench IMO. Mandy and his assist rate last season could find the killer pass for Grigg...
Away from home so probably a convincing win. Naylor back into CM please Cook.

Really Hope to see Dunkley back - Mandeville deserves a start. Araujo for Grimes if fit.
Only caught the second half. As others have said the subs changed the game. Really pleased for both Dobra and Grimes on their goals. Berry very nearly scored the goal of the century.
First game of a little run of games where it feels we could build up some momentum.
Hopefully a convincing away performance and win (last nights performance with a bit more luck in front of goal would do).
Not going to this one due to it being a 12.30 kick off and every time I’ve been this...
As others have said - another game where we’ve dropped 2 points at home. We are playing very well though - creating lots of chances - so it is going to come.
Yeah and I just feel Dobra could do with a rest. Jacobs gets some stick but he has a bit of class and you just feel that’ll be what we need tonight. Berry for legs.
About time we won a Home game. Travelling up for this and hoping we turn it on. An early goal would be nice to force Colchester out to play. Longer it stays 0-0 the worse it’ll get you’d imagine.

Right then. Travelling up for this one on Saturday. Soon to be a sell out (20 odd tickets left I think) - so should be a good atmosphere.
Not really sure what to expect from County, Maynard probably has a different style to Williams and you’ve got that big lad Jatta up top.
Cook has a...
As others have said. We haven’t quite ‘clicked’ yet this season but have still had a reasonable start. Doncaster away being the game we probably most looked like ourselves (and Crewe I suppose). Odds will likely be the way they are due to the fact we’ve only lost once in the last 37 games at...
