    Not keen on that line up.
    Threlkeld is another poor signing, Faulds is average at best.
    I will be surprised if we win today, they need the points to be completely safe and will kill is down the flanks with those two.

    True but it should have been enough to win us the game.

    Sorry I meant City.

    I reckon we should be doing the same - looking for every penny and broadcasting every game!

    Looks like Hughes has dropped Hendrie, despite Hendrie putting in all the crosses lately.

    Probably the worst side we've named all season that.

    Hughes giving everyone a chance which is fair enough but I'd rather the young lads got a game ahead of the likes of Threlkeld, Evans and Lavery.

    He did say in his latest interview he would bring players in to freshen them up, I'd say that applied to the likes of Foulds, Threlkeld, Cooke, Sutton and Lavery rather than players being dropped, which as we have nothing to play for is IMO the correct thing to do.

    Think it’ll soon turn into a back 4, once Foulds get exposed in the left of a back 3
    Just my opinion and hope I’m proven wrong

    Another way of looking at it is Hughes is more or less decided on Hendrie and only has 4 games left to make a decision on others - at least we definitely have possibilities from the bench today

    I think one last look before shipping them out or maybe keeping.

    Who cares what the side is? Result means absolutely nothing, better for Hughes to experiment so he can decide who to keep next season.

    Odd choice of summariser today.

    Couldn't they get a former City player down to Colchester for a meaningless match on a sunny Easter Bank Holiday?? :joy:

    Also congrats to Evans, whether he is coming to the end of his time at City or not 600 professional appearances is a great effort :thumbup:

    I'd think the likes of Foulds, Threlkeld, Evans and Lavery wont be around next season.

    That said, it will be interesting to hear a more independent viewpoint from an experienced pro.

    Think the away strip should be the home strip next season
