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

[Leigh_Seasider]

We have to be the worst team when ‘attacking’ I think I’ve ever seen. Colchester can’t believe their luck, their defenders have hardly broken sweat.

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

So now a late tackle is a red? Was that dangerous, out of control? Have the rules changed? Both feet weren’t off the ground, foot wasn’t up- not that it matters.

No I thought he was shown a red card for being a **** ****?

 

[Lincoln Shrimp]

Not that it matters, but that was never a straight red card.

 

[rayleigh dan]

Never a red

Watching live I winced as he flew in and wasn’t at all surprised. Maybe I missed something but it looked a reckless challenge on a player going nowhere.

Direct the anger on RM's house and make his life hell

I don't care what action people take, but our anger needs to be known. No more of this embarrassment and it starts with next season.

 

[southendkid]

I should feel more depressed than this but I think I accepted we were down weeks ago.

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Demitriou total frustration and stupidity yet was that one of the only signs of passion shown by the side tonight?

 

[Farmer Fossett]

Play the youth team for the rest of the season. We need to know if any will be up for the challenge for next season. Would like to see Coker, Rush, Eastwood jr, Phillips etc.

Out of interest can we sack the players for gross misconduct after this performance?

 

[Supa Shrimpa]

The discipline has gone now. Can you imagine what the atmos would be like in the stands at this moment ?

 

[Ricey]

Can the ref show the players their P45’s instead of cards?

It wasn't passion. It was him being a ****

 

[davewebbsbrain]

How is that a foul and a yellow card to John White? He was clearing the ball and their player ran in with his head down

 

[stortford]

Tackle split Pell's shinpad per commentary

 

[Southend schoolboy]

Don’t even mind it from Demi. Been one of the only members of the squad whose looked up for the fight this season. I would have left one on that c**t before the game was up. Won’t get to play these mugs for a while so may aswell get stuck in to them

 

[Barry.C]

We are so poor at corners and crosses and free kicks, nothing ever seems to get to one of our players

 

[RHB]

This is pretty disgraceful by us now.

We still owe them one for doing Leonard a few years ago

Hopefully that’s the last we ever see of the bad tempered little sh it!

 

[Shrimper]

Still waiting for that fight
