Will have to wait for formation, but I suspect 4-3-3 again!
Taylor back in is good, but if 4-3-3, Dennis wide right and Connor central. Hawkes should be in to take all the penalties we will get with our domination of possession! Ha!

c'mon Rovers! SWA!

There’s a very small chance it’s 4-4-2 with morris and Jennings wide, yes I’m looking out the window to see if there’s any flying pigs.
See the comedians are here! Long time since a certain nicknamed goalie had the gloves!

You stupid boy
I think the only stupid one is the person who can’t take a joke. Do really think I actually want that to happen? How many drinks have you had?

If insults are your preferred method of communication can I suggest you turn your Wi-Fi off.

I notice our latest keeper appears to have read Tommy's guide to patrolling outside the area, and fortunately unlike Mathias our defenders are aware of the ploy!

Yes I thought possible 5 at the back with Morris and Pike as wing backs. Jennings behind a front two of Dennis and Taylor
Yes, I think thats it.

First great chance for the hosts. No great surprise, but miles of room down the right, cut in but defender blocks the shot.

Ball through past the two defenders, Taylor slots it neatly past McGee.

Effort from Rovers. Pike down the right, he goes for the shot, keeper scoops it up eventually.

Seem to be giving the ball away quite a lot and not testing their defence much.

Because of family commitments, I can’t make this one so I’m listening on local radio. The commentators say it’s the best opening half hour so far this season for Colchester. But they also said that the Us are also without several of their players, so our injury list is no excuse.

Wow, another great chance for Colchester. They should be 2 or 3 up by now. Defence all over the place.
