Speak for yourself TrueBlue. im sure many will find it very interesting, be good to see how the new signings ,when we sign some new players are gelling within the team, their fitness and such ,also a true indication that the season is drawing close.

Correct for many of our hardcore myself included but friendlys are also a chance to inject some much needed cash thus you need opposition that provides a test which to be fair Ipswich will but a team that will draw a decent gate which in my opinion Ipswich won't you need an arsenal Chelsea west ham Tottenham etc.... However there is still more to come
What's the point of a friendly against a reserve/youth prem team ? What would PB learn about the players from that ?Correct for many of our hardcore myself included but friendlys are also a chance to inject some much needed cash thus you need opposition that provides a test which to be fair Ipswich will but a team that will draw a decent gate which in my opinion Ipswich won't you need an arsenal Chelsea west ham Tottenham etc....

It's always good to see the new signings, and also to see the old players' new hair cuts.

Ipshite scum. Ugh
Friendlies are dross,Ipswich are dross....for that reason, I'm out
Dragon's den rules ok then. Without friendlies, against any team, the players will not achieve anything like match fitness. What would you suggest in their place?
Pre season mini tournament between us Colchester Orient and Stevenage played at one venue over 2 days.
We had one a few seasons back, seem to remember Mel Capleton in goal and beating either Col Utd or Orient in the final, was played over the week end
Cannot think for the life of me who was in the tournement, seem to remember Orient/Col Utd/Southend and one other team maybe 14 years back ?
