With the 2 Col U matches postponed over the last week or 2, I came across this Col U related Podcast on YouTube and gave it a listen.
I have not listened to any of the Match Reviews. However, I have listened to the 'Past and Present' features with Izzett, Duguid and Halford and thoroughly enjoyed them. The one with Kem was very honest! I still have the Frank Nouble one to go.
Here are the links. Have a listen and see what you think:

Cameroon will face hosts Morocco in the quarter-finals of the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) after goals from Junior Tchamadeu and Christian Kofane gave them a 2-1 win over a South Africa side led by their former coach Hugo Broos.
After a bright start from the South Africans, it was a stroke of luck which helped set up Stoke City right-back Tchamadeu for the opening goal in the 34th minute.
When a corner was half-cleared, Carlos Baleba's shot played pinball inside the penalty area, first striking Bafana Bafana midfielder Nkosinathi Sibisi and then also Indomitable Lions defender Samuel Kotto before dropping kindly for Tchamadeu to tuck home from close range, with the goal confirmed following a long video assistant referee (VAR) check for offside.
Cheers Wessex. Happy New Year to you too and fellow boarders
I am off to bed now and can confirm that Col U are currently still undefeated in 2026 at time of writing and I am hoping that will still be the case when I wake up on the 2nd!
I have also predicted a Col U win and Payne to score first!

Cheers Wessex. Managed to watch it without any spoilers.....
Basically a cobbled XI vs a West Ham U21 (or as Danny C said U23) team that have been playing with each other (and winning things) since U8s probably.
Shame that non of our youngsters, reserves did enough to be in contention for a starting place - but I would rather a fit starting XI for Saturday, then a win in this competion and a few injuries for the weekend.
Thought Mbick looked confident when stepping up to take the penalty - but I had to replay the action after the pentalty again to see how Lisbie managed to miss the rebound - turns out Mbick blocked it on the line otherwise would have been a certain goal!
Nevermind - as the old saying goes "concerntrate on the league" and "there's always next season"
