I love how everyone was slating Reid in the summer and now he's the saviour. Football fans are so fickle.

In the summer he wanted out. He's here now, and 're running out of options, it's really quite simple.

Liking the look of Jonson Clarke-Harris, bit of match sharpness and he could be a real asset at this level.

 

[Otis]

Who are we hating and blaming at the moment?

You if you don't pipe down!

 

[Johhny Blue]

So you don’t know the answer, no?

He gave the right answer

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

OK now I want to know what happened in the changing room at half time.

No matter what people have said about Robins having lost it, it certainly seems like he's rattled a few of the players cages! Looking much more alive.

 

[Nick]

Bad tackle on stokes then, just outside the box but went over the ball.

 

[sw88]

Stokes seemed to be taken out, ref says ‘no’.

Ball comes forward with stokes still down but JCH brings it down well

Can’t make anything if it

McNulty pulled up but doesn’t need treatment

 

[Londonccfcfan]

All over yhem

Tuesday night in Colchester, I still get flashbacks to that 3-1 defeat in the cup replay at Layer Road stood on the terrace watching goal machine Rowan Vine score a hat trick!

Share the pain there. What a night

 

[Nick]

All over yhem

Just need to get a shot off.

 

[Nick]

Dickenson on for them, apparently a decent player been out injured.

 

[Esoterica]

McNulty looks knackered. Should be Ponti time now, there's spaces opening up.

I’ve still got the letter fans got afterwards from the club apologising and giving us a free ticket to next home match

 

[Nick]

JCH wins a header but not much on it, straight to keeper.

Ponti and Reid

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

At least the players have shown a reaction....important to the fans

Hadn’t you suffered enough? The bastards

 

[sw88]

Point I'm making is it SHOULD be a peno.

Sorry, didn’t read it properly

 

[Johhny Blue]

NOW it's time for Reid

 

[Cranfield Sky Blue]

Share the pain there. What a night

Stayed in the same hotel as the players. They only had pre match food and sleep but never came back after the game. Strange....

 

[oucho]

Frankly if we get a point, or indeed better, that's a decent result in my book for a game 3 hours away on a weeknight after a tough couple of results. Especially against a fellow play-off chaser, in mid-February.

 

[covcity4life]

Well regardless of result at least ir looks like a robons team talk has fonnaly made an impact

 

[Great_Expectations]

Pleased with the equaliser and the fact it sounds like we are improving. Tonight is a massive game, a loss will take a toll on both players and fans confidence.

I absolutely in no way want us to lose (ever), but I really hope a win does not blind Robins to the increasingly obvious lack of/poor choice in a game plan he seems to employ. We’ve got away with it a lot this season, mainly due to individuals and moments of brilliance. Nobody goes a season relying on that, he needs to realise that, regardless of the result tonight.

We need creativity and we need to attack teams. The rare moments we have, we’ve looked a different team.

Anyway, JCH to make it 1-2.

Yep Norwich at home I had a ST so gave it 2 family friends, think we lost and I know for a fact 15 years on they’ve never been to a City game since!

 

[Nick]

Late kick on McNulty then. Free kick us.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Ponti and Reid

For McNulty great idea

 

[Nick]

Stevenson off for them.

 

[Johhny Blue]

They should ease up a bit. With all this effort in the second half I hope they're not too tired for Saturday

 

[Esoterica]

Vincenti has had a good half, nicked a lot of balls off Colchester and won some good headers. Hyam has slotted into the back 4 well again too.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Stevenson off for them.

There goes the own goal fantasy

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

They should ease up a bit. With all this effort in the second half I hope they're not too tired for Saturday

3 points here is far more important

 

[Nick]

JCH gets fouled then, nothing given...Was blatant too.

The glass is slowly filling up

Tell me that was sarcasm m8

 

[mark82]

Really need 3 points here to keep us in touch. Could make all the difference.
