We may actually stay up through default and everybody else being shit in this godawful league.

Yep this.

As it stands, a win today would put us 15th. 15th FFS!

How can there be 9 teams worse than us this season!

Said it since preseason, this is the worst league 1 season in terms of quality in a long time.

Crewe 1 -1 Orient

 

[mark82]

According to sky bet we have over 70% possession and 7 shots. Need to be capitalising on that.

Shows stats mean nothing - it's dire

70% possession or not we're playing awful

Protwitx needs to learn to time his jumps

 

[ccfc92]

YeSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nick]

Great play from stokes

 

[marcus87]

Super jim!

 

[chiefdave]

Thank god for that!

 

[LJC_CCFC]

Jimmmmmmmm

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Never saw that coming !! JOB Get in :laugh::laugh:

 

[sw88]

1-0 O'Brien gets it, good play by Stokes to beat his marker who finds Jim and he slots it into the bottom corner

 

[sw88]

Was a great cross by Stokes who looked for his man and found him with ease rather than just lumping a hopeful ball in

 

[ccfc92]

15th

 

[musicmanskyblue]

Up to 15th as it stands.. Unbelievable really.. Annoying thing is, imagine what we could have done with even minimal investment..

Or a competent manager for the whole season.

Or Both :O

We need another because we all know they will come at us in the second-half, and whenever have we been able to hold onto a one goal lead.

Another 3-4 would be nice

 

[sw88]

It's good to have Obrien back. Looking much more effective today than he has been of late

 

[ccfc92]

Oldham beating sheff utd 2-0, so don't think they will just roll over as they are mid table as many hope.....

 

[sw88]

15th but still in danger. What a strange league

 

[sw88]

Stokes and Proswitch are having decent games

Be good for Proswitch to get a goal, confidence booster

CWR and SBP saying the team being applauded off by the fans.

Put the effort in on the pitch and the fans will always appreciate it, unfortunately, there hasn't been a huge effort as late.

 

[Nick]

Obrien has been decent

 

[Nick]

None of those kids on the pitch are going to pass it, all for the glory!!

 

[Deleted member 5849]

It'll all change in the second half...

 

[Gazolba]

Other results seem to be going our way perfectly at HT.

 

[Grendel]

One moment of real quality from stokes and o Brian in an otherwise dire affair.

Ward is impressive and O Brian as well has had a busy game.

Fleck seems to be playing as a sweeper he's so deep

I assume Colchester will push up more in the second half

 

[skybluetony176]

Listening on the radio it sounds like we're riding our luck a little. Thank god for the goal.

 

[LJC_CCFC]

Alvarado to win the national and City to hold. Please lord.

Well in control that first half, but what the hell are Colchester doing? I thought they needed to win this game. They have seemed to be happy to sit back and play for a draw.

City well deserving of the lead.

Expect a big change in tactics from Colchester second half. City need to be very wary of that.
