    Gary Caldwell Apraisal

    Exactly right. I think ultimately there are a few fans out there who are almost rooting for his failure because they never rated him in the first place, and when there’s periods like now and at the beginning of the season when he seems to be getting things right, they’ll find other things to...

    It was 20 years ago on Wednesday...

    Man apparently opens a bank account and wants a medal for it, despite the fact a 7 year old could do it. He’s so very important, don’t you know?

    Red Legion Disbanded

    Red Legion did some amazing things and created some incredible atmosphere, but there always felt like there was an element of toxicity around them. They weren’t liked by a lot of people despite their good work and some of the egos in the group and how they behaved surrounding it I think played a...

    Home Attendances and Atmosphere

    It is the epitome of progression at our football club. We as fans and everybody involved with the club should be very proud of what we're achieving. It's an amazing time to be a Grecian.

    Jon Hill - New First Team Coach

    Of course it's not disrespectful. It'd be madness for Matt, or any manager for that matter, to go into a new role as a football manager with nobody he knows and trusts around him. This has been going on forever. It's football management 101. If Scott decides to leave, it'll be our loss but we...

    Matt Jay

    Appreciate we all have our opinions, but almost writing MJ off after a couple of games in L1 after what he's done the last couple years is incredibly harsh. He deserves more than a crack at L1 level.

    Summer Transfer Thread

    It makes me laugh that people think the management and coaches at club just sit around not doing their jobs, as if it's only evident to fans on social media that we need players. I've got to be honest, it's one of the more preposterous things I've heard that the club should provide evidence...

    Tickets Colchester Match - Club PR - Tickets selling fast!

    You have just proven my point, Alistair. Please, consider dropping the whole saviour complex and that you're playing an important role in making things happen as nobody else can do it without your knowledge and expertise. You're making yourself look silly when someone from inside the club can...

    Tickets Colchester Match - Club PR - Tickets selling fast!

    I think this is where people take umbrage with you, Alistair. Nobody questions your enthusiasm for the club, I think everyone can see your passion for the club, but judging by pretty much all of your posts in this thread and over on Twitter and Facebook pages, you appear to seem to have a theory...

    £100k scoreboard. Yay or Nay.

    The argument that the ad was too small and the subtitles are a fair criticism of it and I'm actually inclined to agree, as well as the PA system in the BB that needs upgrading, but my point is that an awful lot of people who split hairs over the colour green, even when it's on a disability...

    £100k scoreboard. Yay or Nay.

    A presentation at half time and it was also announced over the tannoy, but you not paying attention is somehow not keeping fans informed. Starting to sound like a you problem, pal.

    £100k scoreboard. Yay or Nay.

    The colours really aren't important given what the advert is about. I find it fundamentally weird when people get hung up on something so trivial, especially when it's about something important and irrelevant to specific clubs. It's just sad really.

    Cheick Diabate

    The same Alex Hartridge who Matt Taylor said is an excellent CB but his job and that of the coaching staff was to ensure Alex believes in how good he is? Hardly sounds like a guy who thinks he's better than he is. Strange comment.

    Owura Edwards in on loan from Bristol City

    Can't imagine there is a story beyond that he probably wasn't getting the game time Bristol City hoped for here and has been sent elsewhere to get that game time. No loss for us really, just hope we can fill his spot with someone else on loan that is a little more capable at some point this...

    Matt Kimberley to PAFC is this a Joke!

    Losing Mark Jenkins was a bad moment for the club and knowing him personally he would be the first to say what a loss an asset like Matt is to the club, all while they prioritise hiring individuals like Darren Henderson who are all talk and no walk and last 5 minutes in the role. I know a lot of...

    Matt Kimberley to PAFC is this a Joke!

    I've dealt with Matt for well over a year and he's essentially been running the commercial department alone since Mark Jenkins left and has always gone above and beyond for all of us. It's hugely disappointing for the club to lose someone like Matt, especially to PAFC, and I think a lot of other...

    Matt Kimberley to PAFC is this a Joke!

    Having spoken to a couple of other sponsors on Saturday, Matt Kimberley doesn't even want to leave but PAFC went above and beyond to get him when the higher ups at ECFC told him he wasn't deemed 'ready' to move into the top job, despite running the whole department for a year. They sounded...

    Furlough the players to avoid a cashflow crisis

    Also, even if they aren't orders as such, what's the issue with consulting with various organisations to make sure you have all the available information while you navigate these unprecedented times? It seems wise to gather as much information and guidance from wherever you can.

    Furlough the players to avoid a cashflow crisis

    Agree with this. Just sounds like Ed's got a bee in his bonnet that nobody else could see his perceived "genius" because he wasn't elected. You might have all the business skills in the world, but if you haven't got the people skills to convince people in a democratic process to vote for you...
