We have a League 2 team.
Worst squad in years in terms of quality. I actually feel sorry for the players as most of them graft but just are not good enough and Garner seems incapable of turning them into a winning team.
Insist on a style of play, get a manager in to deliver it but don't fund or identify the players to deliver it and then switch the objectives to Operation Break Even whilst charging £32 a ticket.
Clownery of the highest order.
I'd rather watch kick and rush and win 1-0 every game if it got us out of this god forsaken quagmire of a league and cup competition.
This high press style of play is yet another vanity project/ soundbite that sounds pukka but has no real substance when you have a transfer window like we've had and don't replace players like Washington.
Utter shitshow this club at the moment.

It wasn’t even their first choice team.Fortune 82nd Minute said:And I've just realised Colchester are 22nd in League 2 and have only won one game all season in the league.
Lord how bad must we be.5 -

And then bring Lavelle on for Thomas sometime in the second half before he ran out of legs.killerandflash said:Saw this comment from Jac_52 on the scores thread
Ness: 6 - 7 for the first half 5 for the second. He has shown he isn't a right back but is a very promising centre back. Would have been better to bring on Clayden and switch chin to the right instead of moving him out there for lavelle
Which was a good point, as it was an obvious opportunity to move Chin onto his correct side, and have a left footer on the left. Chin was good, but did cut inside a lot
That's FAR too sensible !1 -
Can’t wait to hear Garners repeated post match drivel0

Where's Greg Stubbley these days?1

Down to 16th as Cheltenham and Fleetwood won tonight.

I was watching tv so missed what happened in the 2nd half (apart from letting in 2 late goals of course).
Did we miss a pen ? If so, who took it & was it "missed" or saved ?0 -
It did in real time. They had all the fixtures, from Champions League through to the tin pot trophyRudders22 said:0 -

Payne, saved but it wasn't a great pen. Would probably still score it 7 out of 10 times though.golfaddick said:I was watching tv so missed what happened in the 2nd half (apart from letting in 2 late goals of course).

No striker = no win.
Its not fucking rocket science.11 -
Well we can't be expected to compete against moneybags sides like Cheltenham and Fleetwood...JamesSeed said:Down to 16th as Cheltenham and Fleetwood won tonight.12 -
Thankfully we can now turn our attention back to the Tory Party which is marginally more of a s××tshow than Charlton-just4

Didn't watch the game (haven't seen one this year yet)
Who was this Col guy in their team who seemed to be all over the pitch and caused us so much trouble?
Sign him up.0 -
I can’t say I was glued to the stream but it seemed to be meandering to a 1-0, we missed the penalty and Colchester woke up, it was hardly the Alamo but we still managed to lose it. We struggle to score more than one goal per game whoever is out there, so few of our players know where the goal is irrespective of the position they play so it’s always going to be a struggle. Unfortunately a struggle is all I can see at the moment.1

Hmm wonder why he was without a contract ?Chunes said:I can't believe Thomas got done by a 33-year-old Akinde0 -
Good grief imagine the moths flying around the ValleyThe Prince-e-Paul said:Even less likely that any of these fringe players will get a start. Wallet open in January TS??2 -
If we want to be competitive in L2 next season we need to improve our squad.5

This was local to me these days so felt obliged to attend…..coasted the first half and flunked the second, not one player wanting to break into the starting XI. Can you blame them with the state of affairs in the boardroom and on the pitch?0

Quite incredible to have actually gone backwards from last season.That takes some doing.
Please say there’s a mega rich fan in the wings wanting to sort this mess.4 -
I see Twitter folks are suggesting Garner should be fired. This is our ressies in the Pizza Cup! Shows how mad we've been driven9

Loser mentality throughout the club. It's pathetic

Campbell will probably be needed to fill the rak Sakyi shaped void in our team when palace recall him in January. Certainly looks promising0 -
Garners tactical changes weren't very clever tonight.Leuth said:I see Twitter folks are suggesting Garner should be fired. This is our ressies in the Pizza Cup! Shows how mad we've been driven
He takes Clare off at ht. Why not move Chin to his right side and bring on clayden? Instead he brings on lavelle and moves Ness to right back.
One thing is for sure. Ness is not a right back.
If he'd made the obvious change he could have then brought lavelle on later on and replaced a clearly tiring Thomas.
He's not covering himself in glory at the moment that's for sure.

We now have a way of playing and it’s good to see its being produced by the club from top to bottom , never score more than one and always let in a goal … consistent as well .8

The live stream was free……how come?Redmidland said:Dear God I can't believe what I've just seen. In control the first half, 2nd half not good but under no real pressure, Payne penalty saved, missed the follow up and we concede 2 goals in last 6 minutes or so...this team can't kill a team off...and as usual we bloody concede. So glad that for some reason the live stream was free, I would've been so pissed off if I'd paid a tenner for that!
Cost me a tenner an hour or so before kick off! 🤔🤔🤔1
