    Reading Sam frost I think Finley's assist was accidental

    Ref just turned down a penalty appeal for a foul on Harry Anderson

    Harry Anderson off Harvey Saunders on 69th minute

    Owura Edwards yellow carded 70th minute

    John Akinde on for Hannant 73rd minute

    3 points a head of Sutton and 4 points ahead of Port Vale both have better GD than us Sutton have a game in hand and could draw level and Port Vale have 2 in hand and could pass us

    Yep we’re now in the playoffs and just 2 points from the autos. It’s congested up there and it’s all to play for.

    A very professional performance tonight - we got the goal then controlled the game - Colchester didn’t have a single shot for the last half hour of the game. Another clean sheet and an excellent performance from Coutts and Finley protecting the defence.

    UTG!

    Away to Northampton next who won away and then away to Carlisle who were beaten by Newport

    3 of the top 4 to play 2 away Northampton and Tranmere and FGR at home we also have Port Vale away if we could win those 4 I would make us favourites to get promoted

    Excellent job done tonight, Colchester are no mugs and have done very well lately, so this was always going to be tough. From the last 10 games, that's 3 points in the bag, 27 to go! We can only take things one game at a time, so Northampton away next which certainly wont be easy.but we might just surprise them!

    All over, Newport 2 - 3 Hartlepool, excellent result for us, and would make 3 points tomorrow even more valuable.

    Today's ideal scenario for us would be: Bradford to beat Port Vale, Crawley to beat Swindon, Oldham to beat Exeter, Sutton and Tranmere to draw and Rovers to obviously win at Northampton. At present, 2 out of the 5 games are going for us. Watch this space!!

    Exeter leading 1 - 0

    Wow! Thought this game would never end! To score in the 1st minute, then stay 1-0 up till the final whistle in the 97th min was nerve jangling! Still, 3 results out of 5 went our way today, so no complaints, and let's be fair, to grind a result out like we have today is the mark of a very good team with the right attitude who deserve promotion. Onwards and upwards we go.

    Wouldn't have expected that to have happened a few months ago, we would have been waiting for the equaliser and the winner

    To be honest, I can't remember a turnaround like this one. It's been a pretty good season!
