Thought Nutall held it up pretty well and showed good strength first half, fitness went second half and was deservedly subbed. We all see players different, I thought Grant looked good particularly first half my mate in the opposite stand thought he was poor. I thought Millen was shite, passed it poorly, took a stupid quick free kick which was way too long and went to nobody but their keeper, my mate thought he did ok. I thought Beestin was still not fully fit and was booked as a result because he couldn’t catch their lad in midfield who was breaking through so fouled him, my mate thought he was our best player. We all see players in a different light plus the opposite stand see things we in the east stand don’t and visa versa. Either way we both agreed that we were shite second half and Oldham deservedly won with their second half performance plus their fans were outstanding for the whole game. Well done Oldham fans you backed your team from start to finish brilliantly but your still going down because like us your team isn’t good enough for league two.

Is seven straight defeats a club record?
Replicates the Brian Laws era run of defeats, I believe it was in 1997 in his first spell. Things will change round but probably not enough in time for this season. Such is life

I’ll settle for
Nuttall=this season’s Ivan Toney.

I am not a Colchester supporter but I know how long it takes for a new team to get used to playing together
Go on the thread ” Colchester fan on the league so far ” read it and have a laugh, I assure you it was nothing personal premier iron.

Been to pick up my tickets for the next two home games this morning, training ground absolutely buzzing. Keith Hill overseeing a game shouting out ” pressure pressure work “, nice to hear and see. Put it this way, didn’t see any players standing still. Got a good feeling about Saturday’s game, tickets going well according to the girl in the office and Oldham very nearly sold out, should be a cracking atmosphere, get your arses down there and back the lads. UP THE IRON.

Likely to be 7 “Hillmen” starting on Saturday so should be OK.
My second car was a Hillman Minx circa 1965. Great motor with a 1725cc engine, went really well, ah old car nostalgia, we all love it really.

Beestin not fit and still struggling, Millen is like warm at best and certainly won’t replace the lad from Wolves unless injury or fatigue play a part ( like a couple of games back ) Jarvis been injured or late I believe and probably not fit though to start, Wood is a mystery but he’s the only exclusion I would have questioned. Think Hill has mixed and matched at times but with lack of quality, fitness, fatigue in younger players and injuries he’s probably been pulling his hair out TBF. Time to see what he’s made of now that he has players of his choice in the squad and has a better choice of options in different areas of the pitch. I just hope it doesn’t take the new players too long to gell with what we have left after the window.

How match fit will Pyke be?
Think Sgt Wilson and Captain Mannering kept him pretty busy on the Home Guard assault course.

If he thinks three are going down he has a final space between his ears that needs filling, with a brain.

Already read it earlier, been said before and it’s nowt new, It’s just another fan from another club with an opinion about a team they don’t support. Big deal, we don’t need a codhead to state the bleeding obvious do we, mind you it was on their forum and anyway who gives a f**k what he thinks.

TBH I don’t take notice of Swann anymore, I’m more concerned in what Keith Hill says and how the team performs. I believe Keith Hill to be a genuine person, I believe that’s all I need to say.

Hill clearly thinks Hackney is the better pick despite his stupid ban and he should be back for the last 15 fixtures. I’m sure Hill would have loved to keep Wood but he’s playing the numbers game with this embargo on and he obviously wanted to move others on. If we assume they are Turan and Millen then once again it speaks volumes about our disastrous summer recruitment under little Swann. I’m still unsure about Perry, he can pass it for fun but he clearly isn’t fit and as a result lacks confidence but maybe next season in a stiffer midfield he could prosper. One thing for sure football management isn’t easy it’s just some make it easier then others,I’m sure glad Hill is here.
