i've been on this forum for years and of course paid attention to transfers etc, but damn some of you have knee jerk reactions of the dumbest kind.


My thoughts with this forum when we lose or draw =

Was at the Colchester game and while it was'nt a great game, it served it's main purpose well which was to get some game time under the players belts.

Really think that some people lose sight of the real purpose of these early pre season games, which is all about building up player fitness before the new season.

Exactly. As long as the players work up a bit of a sweat and need to catch their breath after coming off, job done.

The passing was pretty crisp, you could see it was coming together. I was left feeling optimistic seeing the quality of some of our youngsters, especially Dombaxe and Coulthirst in the second half, they looked very strong and composed on the ball. Harry Kane also saw a fair bit of the ball and would have scored if it wasn't for a bit of a wonder save from the Colchester keeper.

Carroll and Vertonghen ran the midfield in the first half, the latter playing a bit of a Pique Barcelona role. He was passing it about for fun and along with Dawson, easily dealt with the occasional counter or cross. Shame we didn't get a few goals but they will come.

There was a funny moment during a quiet spell where a couple of little kids in the east stand got a 'yid army' chant going and then recieved a chorus of 'yiddos, yiddos' from everyone in the north stand. Fair play to those kids!

That is one of the single worst comments I've ever seen on here.

Are you honestly saying you're not happy because in the good old says we didn't used to fuck about when we signed Gilzean or Mullery and you don't understand why things are a little bit different now nearly 60 years into the future?

Jesus fucking wept.

If this is one of the worst comments you've ever seen then you don't get out much, for fucks sake bobbins you are very touchy when the club or levy are criticised this was a fucking joke to ease away the disappointment of the benteke saga.
I don't need you to tell me why the landscape is vastly different today from yesteryear I get it I really do.

Being totally oblivious here but were Dombaxe and Coulthirst the two with dreads? gotta be honest, and i know it was a friendly, but they looked pretty poor. One poorer than the other but couldnt tell which was which :) Other than that agree totally with your summing up. wouldve loved a goal and we definitely deserved one
