Based on what I saw last week, Grigg/Brandy deserve to start.

I'm sure Bowerman will be introduced as a replacement for the MOTM 5 minutes from the end :wink:

Elsewhere after 20 minutes: Yeovil 0 Oldham 1.........Coventry 1 Preston 0

In our game someone by the name of Jabo Ibehre has twice been flagged off-side :lol:

We've had four corners to Colchester's one, but no score yet.

Yeovil now level with Oldham 1-1.

Bagladies 0-1 down at home to Norwich

We've had seven corners, and 5 shots (4 on target). But guess what......no goals!!

Half-time 0-0.

Yeovil now 2-1 up against Oldham, and the Baggies are 1-1. We appear to be having more of the play (10 corners to Colchester's 1), but we've heard it all before, I guess......

Crying out for Flo

Playing OK, plenty of space, just need someone who can make the right choice at times.

With 'hitman' Grigg as our main threat? NO.

Can see a 1-0 defeat looming large.

Very low attendance at Bescot today, probably lowest league gate of season so far. Have announced crowd changes to players.
