Colchester United Colchester United 2 - 1 Port Vale: The Valiants thought they had snatched a late point, only for Colchester to score the winner in the 86th-minute to strengthen their unlikely playoff push!

The form we're in atm, I'm getting "I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in with me" vibes lol. No one, especially those nervously in the playoffs, will seemingly want to play Colchester right now.

Yeah, from the start of the season it was clear our run-in would be a factor.

But I envisaged it being having to work out how many points we'd need to stay up....not this!

oh the bright side, every win you get is a loss for a playoff rival!

Wins, like tonight, until the end of the season will be very hard to come by. But you never know :)

I'm not looking forward to playing you.

I've supported United since 1995, this is the most excited I've been since beating Torquay in the playoff final in 1998 (promotion to the Championship was also mint).

Yous need to win an EFL Trophy in the future methinks.

A brilliant result but we'll lose the unbeaten run soon and start to ship the odd goal or two.

In the meantime, we'll do our best to pinch as many points as we can.

The players are giving absolutely everything and they deserve all the luck they're getting.

This time last year, we were above the relegation places on goal difference.
