Paddy Madden

Still banging ’em in.

With Wooton alongside him. Tom Hopper scored again for Colchester tonight too against the Cods. Leaves them on a knife edge. The derby’s very possible next season.

Grimsby just need a point to survive and Sutton need to win every game with a goal difference swing needed. I think they’re pretty much safe.

On closer observation, you’re right. For some reason I thought 3 went down

Another couple of 2-0 defeats for the Cods and Sutton winning their last games by 2-0 each time would make things interesting but you would imagine the Cods can grab a point out of their last 6 available.

I realise I am swimming against the tide here but I never liked Paddy Madden and always thought he was massively over-rated, partly because pretty much everyone who has come since him has been even worse.

I still think it was a sign of what was to come when we signed him in January 2014 despite Winnall banging them in, Deon Burton being a regular, Paul Hayes signing on a free, and the team going really well. Felt like a signing for the sake of making a signing.

Madden was a decent enough goalscorer for us, so I don’t think there’s room for complaint, but he wasn’t not as good as Hooper or Sharp. Not as good with the ball as Keogh or Hayes.

Dave Syers who came in with him was more important, we wouldn’t have gone up otherwise.

That’s a fair assessment. I agree that Madden wasn’t terrible, I just don’t think he’s a patch on what went before him.
