Swindon v Colchester Matchday Thread

[Doctor Bamber]

christ there are some serious optimists on this site, arent there?

Some of you buggers must sit just behind us

an overwhelming home win this week. Timlin hat trick (all penalties) and Charlie from 40 yards to round it off. Peachy

I reckon we will win this, tends to happen when the general consensus is that we will get dicked, we turn in a good performance and everyone gets excited, then we go and lose the next one we expect to win. It's the swindon way.

did we win?

Yep! Too true.

YOU REDS!

[Posh Red]

WTF.

It isn't matchday (yet) & this thread isn't official.

That said I reckon we will batter them & restrict them to one shot on target all game.

Unfortunately that one shot will go in & we will draw 1-1

[Simon Pieman]

We will win. All hail the King!

[Andy King]

I'm quite happy to start an 'official' matchday thread tomorrow if you want. Although quite often I do get Sammy Igoes to post for me if I'm too busy cutting cigars. But Sammy's a good lad, he's like one of the seven dwarves, although I haven't decided which one yet. He's also pretty low maintenance, he sleeps in the understairs cupboard and I feed him bread and water.

I didn't realise the old smoking chimp is chief scout at Colchester.  Good for him.

2-1 win for us.

I think a lot of the pessimistic predictions are partly a vague superstition that going on record that we'll win is asking for trouble. You have to raise the optimism factor by a good 30% to get the true optimistic value.

As someone who isn't superstitious at all, I'm going for a 3-2 defeat.

Think Sammy is very underrated....when peeps list their best XI of the last 10 years he never gets a mention...yet his free kick v Bradford City has to be right up there with the very best.

If we'd have had this stability with you in charge KOS, then NPC here we come.

2-1 Swindon

Charlie to get the first and Prutton to get the second shortly before he gets sent off.

Great first post.

[Reg Smeeton]

Great first post.

Clearly barking....should fit right in here.

[RockinRobin]

Swindon 6-7 Colchester
Swindon to go 6-0 up and then concede seven goals in seven minutes of injury time

[Lumps]

All hail the king!

bit early gonna be busy

Where the fuck were you for the Brentford game Yeo? If you're going to be a talisman you can't just turn up every other bloody game to start the matchday thread.
