Official Match Thread Colchester United v Southend United (The Big Essex Derby)

[gatecrasher]

JD is pure **** in midfield, We don't win this we are down - Ron release all those who are out of contract in summer and just play the youths

 

[Worcester Shrimper64]

Lock the car park gates

And dont forget the eggs.

 

[Richard Hearn]

Playing like they dont give a ****.

They don't. The majority won't be here next season.

 

[Leicester Shrimper]

Sad way to go gown this. Right from the start we’ve not looked up for it at all. Heads were down to start with.

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

Earlier on in the season we lost 6-1 here in the cup. Can see this going the same way at the moment.

Where is the 1 going to come from?

 

[amsemp]

Halford, Olayinka and Egbri on at half time so we can give it a ****ing good go. Goodship just isn’t a league player.

I’m ****ing devastated. We’ve literally reached rock bottom

 

[Barry.C]

Have we had a shot yet?

 

[WickfordShrimper]

And Ron Martin will still be here next season sadly.

Sadly but true ..... he has no money to invest , we need a backer to spend big to get any chance of bouncing back .

Ron Martin and the council both just want to build new houses on our Roots Hall site

 

[Rob1920]

Christ this is sounding like one PB’s last games in charge the first time around..

The youth are **** too!

 

[jarvisyeh]

Silver lining here is that Ron can stop his stupid delusions and actually plan for non League next season rather than sitting on his hands waiting for the inevitable.

 

[The Dirty One]

At least it will hopefully mean PB won't hang around to drag us into even more financial trouble while churning out toss like this

 

[Derbyshire Blue]

Well at least we rolled the dice and we’re going down with a fight ... doh!

Please god let someone quote me later to say that aged well when we win 3-2!

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

The only positive is nearly every player won't be here next season.

 

[Kestrel]

Oh well, at least Ron can make some more money by building a few more flats and retail units on the piece of land once earmarked for a football stadium at Fossetts Farm.

Mission accomplished.

 

[Boreham Blue]

Halford, Olayinka and Egbri on at half time so we can give it a ****ing good go. Goodship just isn’t a league player.

I’m ****ing devastated. We’ve literally reached rock bottom

In a week none of them will be

 

[Shrimper]

Nobody is getting a tune out of this shower of s**t. The point is that MM put it together, PB has to make something of it. New manager bounces come along when players are actually worthy of their league status.

And yet, we were assured anyone could do better. Evidently, not.

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

Have we had a shot yet?

No

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Can't doubt the effort but the quality is so terribly poor especially in the last third. So far Goodship hasn't repaid the trust shown in him by PB. Looks as if we could go on all night without scoring. One fears PB has got his attacking options wrong tonight ( not that he had many). As I write Ewes score a second and that as they say, is that.

 

[Bobby dazzler]

How crap are we. Can’t even cross a ball
