Need a really healthy return from this if we are to get into the play-offs. Totally unrealistic to expect promotion but it would be nice to go on a run and make the play-offs. |  |

7 matches in April on 06:27 - Mar 28 with 878 views | ColchesterBlue1985 | With this team of losing mentality you can forget the play offs and promotion this season. We have shown time and time and time again that we are not up to it. Everyone said Wigan was a must win, Fleetwood was a must win, gillingham was a must win etc etc we couldn’t even create a chance against Northampton at home. This group need to be disbanded and reassembled with “new” senior players in the dressing room that simply demand more from his teammates. Things have been allowed to rot under Chambers and Skuse where they simply have been allowed too much power and abused it in the wrong way to allow this attitude to creep in and then subsequently stay. I have said it a million times when MM left they should have gone with him. |  | |  |

Yesturday was 'THE' game for me after a week of training, not that I ever expected us to still be in the mix though, but even less so now |  |

The results are only half the problem, the performances are nothing short of abysmal. Performances essentially tell you what to expect in the long run, our showings on the pitch are nowhere near good enough. |  | |  |

Set pieces have saved us over the past month or so, even these are dreadful at the moment, Andre's yesturday were embarrassing and then we get Harrop I did laugh second half " Harrop about to take the freekick, something of a set piece specialist we believe" - - - -- doesn't even reach the 6 yardbox |  |

I know he's not played much but he's taken a few freekicks and corners now and I don't think ive' seen one look threatening at all. |  |

Hands up I thought he would be the best of all the loanees we bought in that day. Me and my brothers have a hit and miss of who we think will be a hit and miss when they sign. I thought matheson, parrot and Harrop would be decent, wasn’t sure on the others |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I'll be honest, hadn't heard of him, so can only go by his cameos at the moment and with that I can't see what he offers different to a sears. Matheson is really the only one i've seen promise with and that was brief Troy I think will end up a league 1 striker at the age of 23, just doesn't do enough for me imo kind of a bowditch but without a burst of pace. |  |

With the way he drops deep it’s evident he trained with Harry Kane only difference being one is world class one is not even championship material (yet) |  | |  |

Yeah he's definitely got that Kane movement in him, just so so raw with it, obviously on 19, but next season is a big one for him, he must choose club wisely |  |

At 19/20 he needs to be scoring goals that’s for sure. If he ends the season only scoring that one “gift” for us then I cannot see a championship club taking him. His on a decent wedge too so guessing Tottenham will want him to come good at some point, think he signed a long term deal last season on around 25k a week. |  | |  |

No way, that's crazy, He clearly had it in his locker through his youth days, but at 19 you'd think you would have more than 1 senior 'gift' goal to your name, esp for 25k!! |  |

Chatting to a Spurs supporting friend yesterday. Says Parrott is thought of as the next Harry Kane. Also mentioned that Kane didn’t score many when on loan at various clubs before he got his chance at Spurs. |  | |  |

Kanes weren't too bad, 14 goals in 58 loan appearances over a couple of seasons. |  |

Yeah, I must admit I expected more, but having said that, perhaps with our lack of attacking powers, we might not be the best team for him to be learning with |  |
