Rumour has it that there is a bit of a big game happening this Saturday at Milton Keynes.
I won't go through all the permutations re Colchester but just hope we can put in a decent performance to give us the best possible chance of staying up.
Its funny to think that if Smith had scored that last minute winner at Harrogate and we had not conceded that last minute goal against Crawley our fate would have been in our own hands.
Such is football.Let's hope we get a good following up there in what might be our last Football League game for a while.

MK is a magnificent stadium, completely inappropriate for their support! The seating is very roomy and comfortable. Plenty parking at the ground and in nearby roads and some decent eateries and bars as well.

Is anybody else having trouble purchasing tickets on the site? It is telling me there is no inventory available...

Helpfully the MK direct purchase is an online ticket.

Forget the complicated permutations: all we have to do is win 4-0 and then it's simple. If Colchester lose by any margin, we stay up. And if they don't, we go down.

Since I’m trying to keep positive for Saturday, here’s another good way of looking at it.
We need to win and improve our GD over those worthless Colchester by 5 to stay up (4 isn’t enough as Colchester will stay up with more wins). This may sound like a mammoth task, but we have achieved that very feat earlier in this season. On 7th October when we beat Walsall 4-0, Colchester lost 3-1. Improving our GD vs them by 6.
Maybe lightning will strike twice.

On Saturday I move house, 70 miles. It's probably just as well I won't be able to check the game as it's happening, tbh.
Fingers crossed, tho'!

Maybe we might have more luck in somewhere that only looks like Wembley?!🤦♂️ Perhaps we should have had a “straw clutching thread” with useless pieces of information that attempt to make us all feel there is more hope than there actually is ??!!🙈🤷

Never say never. But I anticipate a draw, or a 3-2 win to MK as we charge forward looking for goals. And Colchester v Crewe has draw written all over it, with both sides barely leaving their halves. That said, it only takes one goal and it could have both teams wanting to go for the jugular. Who knows.

You should try it some time.

You should try it some time. Shame, you’ve read that totally wrongly. I meant I was looking for any crumbs of comfort to keep my hopes of survival alive which I am desperate for. Sure too that others could do with any other hope to cling to no matter how remote. That’s why I don’t do any other social media 😏

Whatever else tomorrow brings please, let us put in a good performance-if the team performs, we can all feel generally positive that we have rounded off the season well and look forward to better things next season. Call me a pessimist, but last night I dreamt we were 0-3 down after 20 minutes!!
