Went to see this game have to say i am really sorry to say colchester first team can safely sleep at night with the knowledge there is no threat of them being dislodged as for Bender forget it well out of his depth only good thing was Drey wright he did have a brain. Also i am worried about our goalkeeper situation poor on last nights showing. £8 wasted

I agree myhouse, I hate having to say this, but young Bender will never be a centre back, but I agree on Drey Wright, I think he has a future.
