Market2 Aug 2027

Ben Perry says no to Burton Albion

“I listened, I thought about it, and I am staying. That is the whole story.” The clubs had agreed a fee. Ben Perry had not agreed to go, which turned out to be the part that mattered.

Market2 Aug 2027

Freddie Ingram asks to leave Colchester United

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad2 Aug 2027

Conor Coady in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Colchester United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets2 Aug 2027

Colchester United rebuffed over Omari Patrick

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Tranmere Rovers have kept their man, and Colchester United go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Market2 Aug 2027

Still no ink between Colchester United and Charlie Goode

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Colchester United, another week without a signature from Charlie Goode.

Squad2 Aug 2027

Words at Colchester United training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kyle Bartley is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad2 Aug 2027

Joaquín González wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Colchester United can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Squad2 Aug 2027

Esapa Osong needs a bigger stage

He is doing things every Saturday that nobody around him can answer. It is flattering for a season and a problem after that, and Colchester United know which stage they are at.

The dugout2 Aug 2027

Duván Riascos knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Duván Riascos trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Match24 Oct 2026

Nowhere to hide for Colchester United

1‑6 against Milton Keynes Dons, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

A defender's goal wins it for Colchester United — 7.86

1 for Matthew Smith, marked 7.86, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

James Sasere keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Colchester United may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Charlie Goode in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Colchester United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match24 Oct 2026

7 goals as Colchester United and Milton Keynes Dons go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Colchester United and Milton Keynes Dons, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

The manager makes an example of Tivonge Rushesha

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Boardroom26 Oct 2026

Doors closed at Colchester United

The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Freddie Ingram signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Freddie Ingram and Colchester United agree another 3 years.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Too much change too quickly at Colchester United

13 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

In brief
