I've heard that Payne is injured and won't be fit for the start of the season. Iandolo is out for a minimum of six weeks. Taylor unlikely to figure before September, if he re-signs. Missing two of our best players at this stage is far from ideal.

Terry was there last night but Scully and KVY weren't. The two trialists did well it seems, especially Akande.

Worst penalty shoot out of all time on TV?
at 11:12 23 Jul 2025

Whilst we haven't been convincing and were clearly second best against France we dominated Wales and the Netherlands, were the clearly the better side against Italy and arguably the better side against Sweden. We've also beaten two sides ranked higher than us to get to the final. This team certainly knows how to get it done in a tournament and the manner in which you win is quickly forgotten about.

I did think it was ironic that if they hadn't wasted so much time in the second half there wouldn't have been the amount of stoppage time in which we scored. I absolutely detest time wasting and it was nice to see it come back to bite them.

As it stands I think we have a decent starting XI but the squad could do with some more depth, especially in certain areas.

They already have two other Forest youngsters there and due to the location it's an obvious move. He needs to add a bit more to his game if he wants to continue to progress up the divisions. Got loads of potential though and interested to see how he gets on this season.

Castle Park - the place to be…

Cheers Noah, good to know, I should've wandered in for a bit.

I know very little about cricket but the ball certainly seemed to be travelling at a fair speed from the bowler during the bit I watched whilst walking back to the car.

Yeah I'm not sure they put much thought into that name. Probably just someone from Ipswich wanting to somehow be associated with Colchester.

Five from 14 (36%) isn't the best.

Interesting that KVY, Terry and Scully all figured at the weekend given that none of them play for us currently.

The trialist was Adrian Akande evidently.

Ronnie Harvey, from the U18's, also played a half.

Payne, Macey, Tovide, Gape and Perry didn't figure.

I've also heard Oni won't be back until November at the earliest.

Is it free to watch the cricket? I was near the park on Saturday and thought about wandering in for a bit but wasn't sure if there was an admission charge and I was only going to watch for 10 minutes or so.

Also, who are Ipswich and Colchester? Seems like an odd combination, maybe that will be our name soon. I saw that one of their players got two hat-tricks in consecutive overs!

Ipswich V Charlton friendly on Col U pitch
at 10:12 11 Jul 2025

I can't see how having any Ipswich teams use our facilities is going to have any bearing on the progress of our first team. I feel like we're more likely to benefit from an improved playing surface and the additional revenue. The number of Ipswich shirts in and around Colchester frustrates me also and when I get off the train at North Station and see a load of them flooding on on their way to Portman Road but it's been like that for years and is never likely to change. Surely it would be worse if we were paying them and travelling 20 plus miles to play in a stadium that isn't ours? I actually find it quite amusing that they're going to have to play in a stadium which has Col U all over it. It's a shame that their colours are also blue and white really.

Ben Perry joins on a permanent deal from Nottingham Forest. We paid money for him too.

Neither would be my initial thought. More likely cover in case Tovide goes as he seems more similar to him in the way he plays.
