    3 points from 15.
    Can't beat Crawley at Home or Colchester away.
    Who would have thought that Jamie Walker was carrying the whole club.
    We need new wing backs and new strikers.
    Not mobile enough for the modern game.
    That includes Cook.
    Whole team looked like it was running through treacle.

    Genuinely feel for you. At least I could walk away from the TV and potter around doing other jobs which were significantly more rewarding than watching the game.

    I wasn't convinced we were good enough to win the play offs last season. I'm much less convinced this season.

    Now effectively 8 points off the playoffs with MK Dons having two games in hand. Notts County 9 points but played the same games.
    Yet another season in league 2 beckons next season.
    Good luck selling those season tickets...

    I could have watched some paint dry but I'd probably enjoy it too much.

    Yes, league season well and truly over for us now. 7 points from playoffs now.

    Just the Bristol Street Motors trophy to play for now, but cannot muster any enthusiasm for that at all, not even Wembley would entice me to watch

    Dreadful tactics. Terrible subs. Oliver and Cook up top together just does not work. Taking our only creative players off is criminal. The actual football is embarrassing to watch. Five games without a win. Seven points off the playoffs with two more games played. Five points behind Harrogate. No wins in five. Can't beat a team who were missing four players and who had lost more games than anyone else in the league.

    I can see why the MK Dons fan I spoke to offered me his deepest sympathies when I told him we had appointed Alexander. Dire from top to bottom. Sparks and Rupp out. The sooner the better.

    I love it when commentators make such crass remarks. Is there some ghostly aura of coldness which only surrounds City players, yet Colchester players are protected by a warmth force field! Utter tosh. Same conditions for both teams.

    I think I've looked at the league table during about 3 matches this season. Shows how poor we've been.

    It's time to take action against those in charge.
    This club has been destroyed since watching us play really attractive attacking football under Stuart in the 16/17 season all the way down to the standard we've seen today.
    It's depressing and it's soul destroying even for the young kids who we need to be there for years to come to keep this club alive.

    We have a squad bloated with below average players, that is all down to Mr Hughes.
    Unfortunately no one will take those players off our hands, so we will probably have to wait until their contracts end.
    The better ones like Halliday can bide their time and get a decent move in June.
    I just hope this leaner squad we will have next season is lean with real quality in depth.

    Even when Cook scored there was only Bobby Pointon that reacted. Like how you'd celebrate a goal in a friendly.
    Whole club feels flat as a fart.

    Likely it would be faster than most of our back line.
