Quoted from golfer
Comley was absolute crap when he played for us Weak in the tackle,arms flapping like a bird and even wears gloves when it's below 80. It's OK having a small player but you've got to have a bit of skill and strength - let Hurst sign him-not us. Comley or Brody - what a hard decision


Well Sir Golfer, I beg to differ, and he has now three more seasons experience under his belt at L2 level, but it’s about opinions and ours differ. Would add that I was not suggesting we actually sign him but if he did have qualities IH will be fully versed in them and if he’s worth a place in our squad.

Some Colchester fans reckon their top earners are on 4 grand a week! Out of our price range that's for sure. Might explain why they are letting them go.

This is from the Daily Fail and if true, it sheds some light on what clubs spend on players and staff, which goes some way to explaining why a lot of teams are now in the sh1te.

I suspect it is true, there's a lot of detail in it for a made up story.

On another point, I don't read the Daily Mail and have almost no exposure to it so that article's tone was quite a surprise: it's judgemental, condescending and clearly steers the reader towards what the Daily Mail thinks is right or wrong. It's no surprise that the stereotypical Daily Mail reader is so full of bile and ready to jump to conclusions if that's the type of sh*t they're sucking up every day.

Surely every newspaper drives the reader towards their preferred viewpoint?

The key is to read a range of papers otherwise if you only read the Guardian you would believe the Tories are evil scum trying to kill anyone who isn't on the Forbes rich list or if you read the Mirror that Labour is relevant.

Not wanting to turn this into a political debate, but over 10 million voters would argue that Labour are still relevant.  

Back to the players, a couple of times I've seen Nouble he has looked unplayable - yet remains at this level.  I think that probably answers the question regards him.

What players do we have contracted next season?

I’m guessing it will be them and youth players next season.
