After watching the saint's in my first game yesterday (which I thoroughly enjoyed despite the result) I was surprised to see that we started off 4-5-1. It appeared that when Connelley came on he just as someone else had said oozed quality.
I thought as soon as Papa Waigo came on it livened up the crowd and the game, should have started I believe instead of Antonio. Was his goal offside, it seemed so?
I thought though in regards to the two Colchester goals, very similar and defensively need to work on closing the man down and not letting the ball through, but the officials could have prevented both of them. First one seem to be offside (open to be corrected) and looking at the highlights it could have been offside. Second goal was a blatent corner to us at the other end, after Lambert's freekick.
The ref in my eyes had a shocker, booking Trotman for complaining when Woldsworth clearly dived was awful. Then booking Thomas when the Colchester player clearly raised his hands on him, thought he could have been sent off for that.
Thought the Colchester fans were pretty boring as well, been hear them for long periods of the time and only really when they scored both their goals and the final whistle.
I would also as someone else say for Colchester to invest some money in a new PA system it was shocking!
I think though considering our position at the start of the season I'd of bitten someones hand out to be clear of the relegation zone and still having a chance of playoffs.
