Thread | Returnees
at 08:59 7 Feb 2025
With the return of Kane Vincent-Young this week it got me to thinking of successful returnees to Col U, and unsuccessful ones too. When it comes to returnees who comes to mind for you? For me they have to have been a Col U player, not a loanee, who left to join another club and then re-joined at a later date.
I'll kick off with Steve McGavin. Made 70 appearances between 1992 and 1994 scoring 19 goals. Left for Birmingham and returned via Wycombe, Southend and Northampton in 1999. Went on to make another 80+ appearances scoring 19 times including two in the famous 5-4 victory over Bristol Rovers. Was such at classy player for us. His son, Brett, was at Ipswich for a while and is having a very good season for Yeovil in the National League this season. |

at 18:23 27 Jan 2025
Matt Macey now has 12 clean sheets in the league which is the most in League Two alongside Wimbledon's Owen Goodman. We only managed five clean sheets last season and 10 in each of the two seasons before that. I know that this isn't all down to Macey and that the whole team has to take a fair amount of credit for this but, despite a few errors, I think Macey has definitely had a positive influence on the defence this season. Let's hope he can get another one tomorrow night. |

Taken from Matt Hudson on Twitter.
"Col U crowds for the first half of our league matches (12/23) averaging 4,486 this season, up 893 or 25% on the first 12 in 23/24.
22 league games under DC - average 4,629."
And it's not like we've suddenly had an influx of local games either or a Wrexham type attendance to boost the numbers.
Great to see the attendance numbers moving in the right direction and I think there are a number of factors contributing to this.

We were talking at half time on Tuesday and wondering when we were last four goals ahead at half time, anyone know?
Also with Tovide on a hat-trick, which he ultimately didn't get, who was the last player to score a hat-trick in the league for the U's? My guess was our old favourite Jevani Brown.
Tuesday was our third clean sheet in a row in the league. The last time we achieved that was under Ben Garner at the end of the 2022/23 season. Oddly it involved the same three results (0-1, 0-0 and 4-0) but in a different order (4-0, 0-1 and 0-0). I'm struggling to find a time when we managed four clean sheets in a row but surely it must've happened at some point. It's also six clean sheets for the season now, one better than last season already. |
