4.2 to us 2.0 down again in first 5 minutes this time, it'll be 2.2 at half time and then we'll up our game in 2nd half and win 4.2 Whats the odds?
RE: Very similar to last year's game It was also the third game of the season. We had one win and one defeat behind us and Colchester had two defeats. I think Ritchie will be thinking that, of all the away matches this season, this is one we should be capable of winning, so I hope we don't play four full backs and two centre backs like last time! The better news is that Chris Iwelumo is not yet back to full fitness, having had a double hernia operation over the close season. You can expect him to play some part, but I reckon they are hiding his situation, as they can't get players in on loan until he's fully fit. If he starts, he runs a real risk of breaking down during the game. He could come on as substitute if they need him and, if this does happen, they must be truly desperate. Either way, I doubt that he will be fully fit, which is good news for us and he certainly won't want a bruising encounter, or anyone 'doing a Rooney' on him. Colchester will be stung, just like last year, but I think I will just go for a win for the 'super Reds' 2-1. I would take a draw, but this is one of the matches which, when the fixture list came out, we would hope to go and win.
RE: Very similar to last year's game I hope you're right about Iwelumo- I've stuck a ton on us winning at 2.35/1.</p> </p>
RE: Very similar to last year's game I would surmise : A very hard fought game and a 1-1 draw. I am travelling down there and will bewell pleaed with that result.
