I'm only on the net at work at the moment, so didnt catch up with any comments on the game over the weekend.
I thought we did ok after a very shakey, slow start and after Vale's second, we dominated. But did we improve or did Vale sit back? Bit of both I reckon, but the signs were encouraging.
I thought Cole had a decent enough game - looked understandably nervy, but put in some great balls (though 50% were crap too!).
I was more impressed listening to his interview on BBC Essex. He sounded totally gutted. I imagined him to be like "... was great to play - better luck next time etc etc" but he sounded totally determined to "not go back down a division" and that all the lads are desperate to do well.
Brill attitude and lets hope they live up to their attitudes!!
