Went and watched the game on Saturday, excellent to see a Town hero in John McGreal coaching the Colchester youth team also see old faces such as Tony Humes and Richard Hall does slightly frustrate me when i see these guys at Colchester and not Ipswich. I must admit Colchester United were much the better team and deserved the result on another day it could have been 8 or 9 - 1 but fair the boys dug in and nicked a result. Very impressed with a Colchester player don't no he's name played on the wing but would certainly like to see him in a Ipswich shirt surely we can get Wordsworth to have a word and poach him.

stortford added 20:54 - Feb 25 If you mean the left winger wearing number 11 that is Jack Simmons, who started last season as a Town 1st year but moved to Colchester last Spring. Apparently he didn't think he was getting, or going to get, enough game time to have a chance of earning a contract.
