hollandspies Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 (edited) Despite the fact that the team have been carrying Smalley for much of the season I fully expect Penny will send out an unchanged team next week. If he doesn't fancy Smalley then he would have replaced him much earlier today, but IMO he's our weak link and I don't believe Colbeck or Parker are the answer. Right or wrong?

Right or wrong? i think penney gave smalley a chance todya and he didnt take it. when colbeck came on he looked like he wanted to play. id play colbeck ahead fo him or whalley if we sign him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davebuckley06 Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 id play c olbeck. before his injury he was settling in nicly starting to put in some ghood performances and he loves a atckle need a few more with the sort of passion* he shows. also i agree he realy looked like he wanted a spot in the team when he came on. hes certainly won me over. i was slagging him off when he first arrived but i think he has gone a long way to proving me and a lot of others wrong *maybe a bit over the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Colbeck over Smalley but given the state of Colchester's pitch, I reckon :censored: will be in contention to start as an extra scrapper in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would tend to agree but hasn't Penny fallen out with :censored: over an alleged new years eve fisticuffs? Time to make up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to make up? Lewi Alessandra played for the stiffs this week. Isn't he going to be in the equation again soon? Gives us more options.

nava Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Not ahead of Abbott / Price. Probably not, but surley a better option to bring off the bench than Parker or Brooke? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusoe Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Yeah, I'd go with that team. I've no idea if Whaley is that good a player — I hope people aren't expecting miracles if he does sign — but Smalley clearly isn't working out. If we don't land Whaley I'd prefer to see Colbeck starting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
