Colchester doing well then on 21:29 - Jan 1 by Illinoisblue | And five years for lambingo… and somehow Evans still wants to be involved with football again |
Given that he should have been sacked for relegating us, it was possibly the most astonishing decision of the ME era. |  |

Colchester doing well then on 23:31 - Jan 1 with 680 views | Sharkey | I think the chairman said last week that they have the 16th biggest budget in L2. Sears isn’t struggling in league 2. |  | |  |
Colchester doing well then on 23:45 - Jan 1 with 648 views | burnbudgiesburn | Good possibility both Essex clubs will be non-league in the space of 12 months. Sad for them but longer term could be good for Towns potential catchment area - it won't be as easy returning to the football league as it was last time for them. Anything north of Chelmsford could be a target. |  | |  |

Colchester doing well then on 18:00 - Jan 1 by Illinoisblue | I’m sure he would justifiably point to covid causing him to cut back but I take your general point. 2k crowds in a horrible soulless stadium with a team full of Ipswich rejects is no way to live |
This is absolutely spot on. The chairman has made it so complicated to buy tickets that only the most die-hard bother to try to crack the code. Then the fixture list was always going to be a miserable one, ( no Southend, no Cambridge , no Wycombe, - and then Orient got covided.) But I think most fans would say the problem is the management, not the recruitment . In particular , they’re so scared of conceding the first goal, as if that always decides a game. It normally does in Colchester’s case, but it feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy. |  | |  |

I live quite close to Colchester but the rigmarole in getting a ticket means I do not bother. |  | |  |
