    Who finished 11th last season?</p>

    Is it because they are a little club? </p>

    after being humilated at home last week

    im more than happy with a point, im just worried about the amount of new players and the time it takes them to gel. Who knows we may hammer plymouth next week, Changing the formation after 1 game seems a bit of a worry to me aswell. having only played twice its hard to judge how the season will go, we all know you do that after 18 games

    Exactly

    Colchester are very good at home and last season we and Plymouth were the only teams to beat em at home, no doubt if we played Leicester today all the ones who expected us to win little Colchester would have been really happy with a draw.

    Who is upset by the fact we drew?

    After last week I would guess that everyone is relieved.

    But getting a draw against the team that most on here

    said were going to be certainies for relegation this year, cos they sold all their best players.
    I think that is what is upsetting people, not the fact they were 11 th last year, but were seen as certainties for the drop this year.

    Nothing to do with little Colchester.

    They lost all their goals from last season.</p>

    Thats why I expect them to do poorly this season.</p>

    Last season they surprised everyone by scoring a lot of goals and getting the best out of perceived journeymen pros like Iwelumo and Cureton.</p>
