Let's all laugh at Col Ewe - episode 17324

http://forum.cu-fcchat.com/viewforum.php?f=5

Not happy bunnies, are they, and who can blame them? After several years of taking pride in behaving like the most despisable set of ***** in the entire FL their fans are seeing their club, allegedly geared for long term Championship status both on and off the pitch (don't laugh), headed back to more familiar surroundings. The new stadium effect has lifted their attendances almost to an awe inspiring 5K, and even their chairman can't disguise his contempt for their "support".

Funnily enough, neither ourselves nor Ipswich seem to be able to get a mention any more - not that there's anything to my suggestion that they only want to know when the shoe is on their foot, you understand. ;)

A word of warning: their board is as hilariously tinpot as most things connected to their club, and like all forums it reflects its posters. It's a bit slow.
 
Oh dear Colchester Barside how sad. I think those who say they are Barsiders are just not even clued up to how Fearsome we used to be. We would go mental all game and laugh so many away fans out of town. But now we just look plain rubbish.

Chortle! :D
 
Yep, the board is proving to be slow at the moment, but we are working on making it quicker. Anyone with coding experience, please drop me a line as me and our techies are trying to find a solution.

Things aren't going our way at the moment, but we will see what happens in the coming weeks.

As a club - and as I have mentioned before - we are looking at some of the great stuff Southend have done with Family Days etc, to further grow our fan base.

Albeit starting from a smaller level than most, our corresponding attendances against oppositon from when we were last in L1 are about 30-40% up.

But as most clubs - including yourselves - have experienced, a winning team will bring in punters through the gate.
 
It sounded like their fans booed them off when they beat Gillingham the other night. But it seems it was another BBC typo as they've now corrected it to say it was the Gills who were booed off.

Let's face it, Col Ewe are so bad that even teams a division below them find it embarrassing to lose to them.
