What the hell happened to AFC Wimbledon?

AHH, hello old friend. #ColU

Won't it be nice to have an ownership that actually WANTS to be there. #ColU

@dabdbdab I read this and cringed too. We're like a loveless, joyless marriage. We need to both move on for the sake of everyone involved.

Yes, Robbie, because the whole objective of football is to win games and progress in leagues... Out of touch to the very end #colu

@Tyler7Smith @ColU_Official @ShellAndStripe Oh the buses don’t forget the buses…Altho people will still moan even if attendance has improved significantly without the buses 😂

Colchester United will be hosting a Season Ticket Holders' Fan’s Forum for the 25/26 season on Tuesday 21st April. The management duo, Danny and Nicky Cowley, and U’s chairman Robbie Cowling will be on the panel answering your questions as we go into the final couple of games. The event will be held in the Layer Suite at the Jobserve Community Stadium, with doors opening at 6:30pm and the panel starting at 7pm. The bar will be open for drinks and bar food menu will be available. If you’re not a season ticket holder but would like to ask questions for the panel, email yours to media@colchesterunited.net For Season Ticket Holders that wish to register and attend, contact ticketing@colchesterunited.net #ColU | #WeAreUnited

@ffc_col @Tyler7Smith If that's the case, then how did all the wonderful Club United initiatives get completed?

@Tyler7Smith Unless Terry has paid off the debt to the council for the stadium and got the rights from the council who own the ground then no stadium renovations will happen

With new owners seemingly on the Horizon, what is one of the biggest things you’d like changing within the club? - Kit Provider? - More sponsorship? - Revamp of the stadium? - Stadium naming rights? - A better fanzone? - More backroom staff/proper structure? #colu

@Tyler7Smith Oh...and let's also get into the LED hoarding shenanigans.

@Tyler7Smith Oh I forgot...Bring back programmes.

@Tyler7Smith Backroom Staff and Structure. That needs to be the priority to allow DC/NC to do what they do best and give us the best chance in League 2. Everything else can wait.

I think The U's last three games of the season will define the momentum we take into the summer. Go and smash it boys 💙🤍✊ #ColU

@barsidepodcast You've done Danny, surely now you do Nicky 😆

🤝 Beyond The Barside Meets…
 As the season draws nearer to its end it gives us some time to record some more Beyond The Barside Meets.. episodes. It was a feature that came shortly after our inception But who would you like to see us speak with? #ColU #FootballPodcast

@DanielColU Interesting. I'd love to read his coursework 😆 Was his final presentation about breathing life into a dying League 2 club? If so, bring it on I say.

If you look at the course detail, I think it demonstrates a commitment from him to want to run a club properly (not manage the team), and it probably makes him more qualified than the current owner!

I've found something that may offer some reassurance about the John Terry takeover. He recently posted on his Instagram that he's got a Diploma in Club Management from FIFA. This is an 18-month course that covers the full operation of running a football club. #ColU

@MistleyFc @OfficialUpTheUs A slow start killed our season again.

@OfficialUpTheUs Two really good performances back to back, entertaining football played but perhaps a feeling that we underachieved this season and the squad was stronger than we maybe thought & should have made playoffs. Goodwin, Barbrook and Edwards all looking like new players. #colu

Wasn’t as strong as Swindon but that don’t matter, a wins a win, and the 3pts staying in Essex! Goodwin and Edwards starting to form a partnership, Read and Payne pulling the strings and Barbrook solid again, 9pts from the play-offs with 9 to play for 👀 What are your thoughts after that victory? #Colu | #WeAreUnited

Lolz

I let out a little trump when Jack scored. It must be an age thing.

A game of two halves. 1st half: Flat atmosphere and flat performance. 2nd half: The ground and team were buzzing. #colu

Looking forward to my trip to Blundell Park next season.
