Yes that would be a massive difference to our usual transfer activity as RC used to pay 'undisclosed' sums for players. Saying that, if Cheek was to join us then is that a sign that Lyle Taylor could be leaving or am I over thinkng that? |
I'm afraid it's too much to expect Cheek, Taylor and Tovide all still to be Colchester United players when the window closes at the start of September. If they were there'd certainly be reason to be excited for the coming season. |  | | |

Very harsh
I like the Peterborough business model. They take a gamble on young players especially from non league normally paying decent fees to the selling club, develop a player and then sell on for a profit.
Players such as Szmodics, Poku & Kent have fared very well after playing for them.
Yes, a few don't work out like Ihionvien but that wasn't a surprise to me as he never did much to impress me.
We could have tried to get Lisbie but we are never prepared to pay a fee and gamble on young upcoming players
I do have the same dislike of Ferguson & Fry but like their owner Darragh MacAnthony
What else can Peterboro offer - probably more money and a higher standard of football |
Panic over.
I thought wrongly that Peterboro had poached Kyreece Lisbie from Colchester when it was his twin brother Kyrell that they have signed.
Kyreece is still at Colchester.
PS I still don't like Peterboro or their approach to developing young footballers but we still have Kyreece which is great news.

Well Peterborough's business model didn't work out very well for them last season did it? Back on topic, I think a few of our youngsters will make huge strides in progress this coming season. |  |

Colchester United and Fleetwood Town are hot on the trail of Brentwood Town hotshot Daniel Ogunleye. |
It’s not a done deal yet, but Ogunleye played as a triallist for Barnet yesterday in two behind closed doors 45 minute matches against Sheffield FC - he scored too. |  |

Good cover now that Kels has gone back to Eire, happy with that. | |

I wonder if he'll be a starter. Not sure we saw the best of him last year but he was very good back when he was at Gillingham. His experience at MK seems to have knocked him a bit but if we can get him back to his best we'll have a very good player at this level.
Did anyone else see that Egbo declared himself as "unemployed" on his social media? | |

I did see that - wasn't sure if that meant he's already refused a new contract (surely one would have been offered?), or a bit of gamesmanship to try and flush out a better offer from elsewhere and/or force Col U's hand? | |

I would guess that all of the contracts ended on 30th june . They have received their final payments . | | | |

Rumours of an in and an out today.
Think the in might be Scully although I have heard that Ihionvien might be returning. | |

Likely to be Scully as he was out in town a few nights ago having a few drinks with Teddy Bishop. | | | |

Although Lyle Taylor is a very good player the club will only get half a season out of him at the best. I think that is why the club are giving his contract some thought. | | | |

There was a photo on his own social media recently of him wearing the new training kit with the quote "Trialist A reporting for duty". |  | | |

Btw - what's his current X account? Found several, but none of them particularly recent (i.e. all appear to be pre-Col U). | |

Not sure he's got one. His post was an Instagram story.

Not a surprise. We originally paid a fee if I recall so wonder if we ate recouping? | | | |

Undisclosed fee apparently, so it sounds like we got at least some of our money back. Good luck to him, despite where he's going, hope he does well. | |
