'Work to do; great start': Colchester United fans have their say on Oldham draw
COLCHESTER United drew 1-1 with Oldham Athletic in their second League Two game of the new season. Jack Tucker gave the U's an early lead at Boundary Park but Josh Hawkes' equaliser meant the spoils were shared, on Saturday afternoon. Colchester had more than 350 supporters at the League Two clash - here are some of their views on their side's second successive draw. Doug No attacking midfielder leaves your defensive midfielders playing right on the centre backs with a huge amount of space in front of them for the opposition to exploit and Oldham did that 2nd half. Only heroic defending kept them at bay. Hopefully Payne is back to fill the hole. (Image: RICHARD BLAXALL) Georgina Davies It went downhill once they scored, don't know what happened to the midfield. Even when we finally made the changes it didn't change, onto Saturday Mylocolu Great start but we dropped off. It was really poor until Samson a jack came onto the pitch a lot of work to do. Onto Oxford (Image: RICHARD BLAXALL) Dave B Midfield overran too often. Bishop, Anderson, and Williams absolute passengers sadly. Teams are wise to stop us from getting the ball to Edwards on the counter. Looked a little toothless, but fair play to Tucker and Flanagan for their defensive work Looked good for 20mins then got battered by long balls & throws v lucky to escape with a draw (Image: RICHARD BLAXALL) Betson Worst I've seen us for a long time after the first 20. No cohesion whatsoever, disjointed press (when we did), lots of work to do. Si Collinson Great start with the intensity that we finished with last week. Should have/could have got a second before their goal. Second half we were backs to the wall but defended well. Jack Tucker was fantastic.
