[FGR Stroud]

Sat up til stupid o'clock local time only to find our commentary isn't happening, so have the option of turning in or listening to a load of Mansfield technical staff swearing for another hour No idea how we're playing, they'll swear at anything.

Same here in UK. Picture only.
Didn't want to much trying to discover where the commentary had hidden itself away, so listened to 1st half with sound effects.
Actually it is an eye opener, some of the tackles by players from both sides could be heard loud and clear. The club doctor will be busy at end of game.
FGR well on top but no score so still everything to play for.

We're hoping to bore Leyton Orient into submission, then in the second half when they're all asleep we can have about 50 shots on goal, from which we'll score 1.

You appear to be right about the bore part. Hope you’re right about the second half.

 

[shoddycollins]

Why are Orient sponsored by Harry Kane?

 

[Bottega Don]

Huh, we start our best player and we score easily

Who would of thought?

 

[BarraMatt]

This has got a 1-0 loss from a strike deflected off John-Lewis' package written all over it.

 

[Monkey Tennis]

We've got crowd noise dubbed on. Weird. It's louder than our actual crowd would be!

We've got crowd noise dubbed on. Weird. It's louder than our actual crowd would be!

Hard to get pre-made audio of a load of old blokes moaning for the true league two experience.

 

[BarraMatt]

We've got crowd noise dubbed on. Weird. It's louder than our actual crowd would be!

Just heard a massive shout of "GET IT FORWARD!" so at least it's realistic.

 

[Bottega Don]

Bradford goal coming here, hit the woodwork twice and we're struggling

Sounds like one or two or 8 could be carrying knocks by the weekend

 

[Shrimper92]

This is dire

 

[The Terminator]

Why are Orient sponsored by Harry Kane?

Because we had him on loan 11 years ago.

The only winner of this game so far is the heavy wind!!!

 

[hellogregory]

Dire half.

Orient happy to sit back and wait for their chance as was mentioned they would earlier in this thread. But we’ve done absolutely nothing with the amount of the ball we’ve had. We are absolutely clueless. Zero ideas.

Its either going to end up a really poor 0-0 which doesn’t really suit either team or Orient will get the chance they are waiting for and take the points.

Were playing like it’s the last couple of games of the season where no one has anything to play for. Well if this carries on we really will have nothing to play for come Saturday evening.

Really poor.

 

[Bottega Don]

Ah classic Neil Cox, we're looking dangerous playing our game and he changes it to combat the opposition which totally kills our game. It's so frustrating.

 

[Laker]

Colchester I’ve always loved you. Harry Pell, what a hero.

 

[dedwardp]

Well, we're winning but it's very much against the run of play.

 

[SVH]

Go on Col U! Just need a Mansfield goal. Stags having the better of it at the moment just need to take their chance.

 

[masi51]

Whose the coming over the hill....its the Wanderers

 

[Shrimper92]

Well we had a shot on target. That's progress

 

[Si Robin]

Colchester I’ve always loved you. Harry Pell, what a hero.

Cheltenham blood in his veins!!!!

 

[Bottega Don]

Not sure how this is only 1-0

Bradford have hit the woodwork twice and we've missed a few chances including a big 1 on 1 by Green

 

[Shrimper92]

Says it all when the commentators are openly laughing at the play

 

[dedwardp]

We've missed a sitter from one yard out which should have made it 2-0, but the goal we did get was as scrappy as anything and we've otherwise been up against it. Tranmere hit the post a few minutes ago so plenty of legs in this one yet.

 

[Shrimpurh]

This is so fucking bad we’re a disgrace don’t deserve to stay up

 

[BarraMatt]

Untidy is an understatement. Grimsby very direct but it has been causing us problems.

 

[Huntsman94]

Weird one at Colchester because we are well the better team but should be 2-0 down. But we also missed a sitter to go 1-0 up. Get Woolery on and really get at these second half. Still confident we can come back to get 3 points here. Get one and with the form Colchester have been in, we’d be favourites

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Dreadful half of football at our place, with the ball spending more time off the pitch than on. The wind has been a big factor, but would've expected Grimsby to make more of it. Neither keeper has been troubled by anything, but hopefully we can step up second half.

 

[Gladders]

Well it's not a classic but we are working hard and closing Barrow down, probably had slightly more of the ball and the better chances but they are nothing more than half chances.

 

[chipmunx]

we've got more of the wind 2nd half - i can see Ollie Banks taking a few long range shots...

 

[Conker]

Think we were the better side but a bit toothless, another point towards 50 though.
