    I like most of that team selection except we go on a player who played tonight that did nothing wrong and played well in Taylor for platt.

    I wonder if tonight's performance will change opinions about which players people would like to see moved on this window.

    Not Oliver.
    He remains firmly in the “get rid” section.

    Taylor had a good game tonight. Nothing in it between those 2 for me.

    It's a nightmare for GA.

    He'll still be getting to know these players that he never bought (and the fact we have about 500 of them doesn't help!!)

    And you could literally pick two teams, which had 7 players plus the four stalwarts - Lewis, Smallwood, Cook and Gilly would be in both and I've no idea which would get the better results.

    Glad a couple of players got a long overdue run out and done well from what I watched.

    Hopefully that will give GA a kick up the backside he clearly needs.

    And people really need to calm down about tonight against derby it was a nothing game for them.

    Good night ladies.

    So did you also get a chance to speak to Jake Young? Both out injured. If Jamie made the trip, l would have thought Jake would also be at the game. He was there wasn’t he?

    Having Pointon and Chapman meant we actually tried to pass the ball tonight, in stark contrast to Saturday where it launch it toward the area at all costs. Thought as a result we respected possession tonight far better and looked a far better side for it. How he lines up on Saturday i have no idea but i'll be honest i much prefer us when we try and play football as we have players at this level who can play a bit if given the ball to feet.

    Okay my pessimism was unfounded! Glad that the team got the win and from the reports it wasn’t a fluke.
    Also l didn’t watch Dogs Behaving Badly!;)

    Never saw him. Walker was in the concourses at half time getting a brew and doing some photos etc.

    Tempting! The crossing is probably cheaper than a Ajax ticket :joy:

    That’s alright against a side like Derby. It will be back to a war of attrition at Colchester since GA took over the results have improved because of our pressing and being more direct although there is a happy medium

    That's exactly the team I'd pick too and I fully agree about Stubbs, absolutely the best central defender at the club. I thought he was immense tonight.
