First game of the season for me after a mate offered me a ticket due to his gf being ill. Really enjoyed it especially the second half, much better than the dross I’ve watched us serve up on the Firestick so far. Can’t fault anything on the pitch today, everyone gave 100% and that’s all I want. Off the pitch… wow… things continue to get worse since I last went, appears the scoreboard has given up the ghost again, couldn’t hear anything out of the PA system in The DRS, and wtf has happened to the food kiosks? Hardly any food or drinks. Other than that a great day.

Bit worrying that the scoreboard wasn’t working, the tannoy in the DRS wasn’t working, no gas for the beer, low stock and very little food available.
Scoreboard is old, can forgive the last minute breakdown. Amazed the speaker isn't a safety issue. But it's been on and off for years. No idea wtf is going on with the food. I've noticed the food stall in the drs nearest the town end has been shut recently too. Though I only usually buy a drink at most and the disabled supporters bit is open for drinks right near it anyway |

Yeah no Pepsi max for me at HT (first world problems I know) but should be better in DRS. |

I see the winning goal came from Tshimanga turning Iandolo.
I note Bycroft beaten on his right side again.
Didn’t realise they hit the bar.
We won!

God I hope we stick with a back four, and that’s the end of freckleton for good
Enjoyable, a bit more composure in the box and we win that comfortably. Colchester were shit, mind, but it was so nice to think we had a bit of an attacking threat. How often in the last two years have we been able to say that?

Disallowed goal for offside when their keeper and a defender were also on the line... sigh. Much better in the second half, I know 352/532 is popular but lower league teams are shit and it's really bloody boring to watch them struggle with it, I much prefer 4 at the back. Didn't see McGregor's celebration after the first goal, hopefully that adds a zero in January  |

Tshimanga has a knack of knowing how to use his body to roll a defender or manipulate a situation to get half a yard and shoot.
It's clear to see why he scored a bucket load in the National League.
His first touch is still very questionable but in the right system he will absolutely score goals.

Didn't see McGregor's celebration after the first goal, hopefully that adds a zero in January I *think* having watched it 3 times. The ref has deemed Smith offside when Clarke heads it. Keeper appears to save Clarkes header but it hits Smith & goes in… |
