Well, I was truly amazed to look at the League Two table and saw Grimsby Town in 7th position; 16 games played and 25 points. We of course have 14 points from 15 games and languish in 21st. David Artell is working wonders with the Mariners.
Also, for the first time since I don’t know when I’m not travelling to Cleethorpes and so will miss out on Gerry’s company and Papas fish n chips.
A combination of Sky TV, impending weather, babysitting duties means that I will watch another game on Sky.
The all-important weather forecast suggests 10 degrees Celsius, light rain and occasional snow showers. Not pleasant.
Also, Grimsby had a number of outdoor Christmas festivities planned but have had to either postpone them or move them indoors. Storm Bert has put paid to some of these activities. All in all, very sad indeed.
So, for those faithful CUSA members and others safe journey and I hope you enjoy the game. I’m going for a 2-1 Colchester victory with Tovide and Taylor on the scoresheet.
DC will be looking to field a strong team in order to secure that elusive Away win.
Sad news from Peterboro where Bradley Ihionvien faces two months on the sidelines following a freak injury and a bone growing where it apparently shouldn’t be. Get well soon Bradley.
We have also drawn Wimbledon in the BSM knock out stage. A chance for revenge after the opening day defeat.
So how bold will DC be on a shocking day weatherwise in Lincolnshire.
If they are all fit then let’s line up something like this:
Macey
Egbo Goodliffe Donnelly Iandolo
Thorn McDonnell Payne Edwards
Tovide Taylor
Subs Smith Flanagan Hopper Anderson Read Gordon Woodyard
Safe journey to the travelling faithful.
Enjoy the game.

Tremendous, well done!
That feels better.
Small steps....
Up our U's
So much better, gives a fantastic lift to the rest of a grey wet windy weekend. Well done the travelling support, you all deserved that!
Tbh, after a difficult first half against the wind, I thought we were good value for the win based on our second half performance. Considering Grimsby are in the play-offs, they were poor. Shows how even much of this division is. Got to do it all again with another early start and long trip to Fleetwood next Saturday, but this will give the squad a tremendous confidence boost.

Morecambe beat basket-case Swindon 3-2 at the County Ground. Although on face value we might have preferred a draw, I'm actually okay with that result, keeps them both at least 2 games below us. We'd have been in the S H 1 T if we'd lost though.

Wessex we only look higher up the table now.
DC is beginning to play his best XI.
He needs to stay strong and ensure that the top performing players are selected.
In atrocious conditions we eeked out the vital win.
Our best back four played today. Both the forest youngsters are on fire.
Hope Thorn is back next week.

This is an incredibly tight league this year and we haven't lost as many games as some in the top ten which bodes well for us if we can keep the unbeaten run going and start to pick up regular wins. Does look like DC is getting close to knowing his best X1
