Match Report - West Bergholt Reserves v Reserve Team
The Ressies made the short trip to West Bergholt and were looking to build on last week’s performance. Unfortunately, although at times playing some good football, gave a physical and experienced Bergholt outfit too much time and space.
The pitch was in fine condition and with the wet surface, the ball zipped about. Both teams passing the ball well. Colne were trying to get Bright on the ball as much as possible, Bergholt soon realised this and he became the subject of some very close attention. The home side had first half advantage of the slight slope and the wind was on their backs. It wasn’t long before they took the lead. Given too much time and space on the edge of the penalty area, the midfielder picked out the top left...

The pitch was passed fit after morning work by the ground staff. Lesiak and Theedom returned to the side, and Robinson was added to the bench. It was a scruffy game with the wind blowing and not much football played by either side. The only goal of the game came after Burle had pinged in a number of corners, and Paul Davies was at the far post to head one of these home in the 1st half. There were not many other clear chances. Robinson was introduced in the second period but was soon leaving the field after a boot to the face knocked the player out. Scruffy, but another 3 points for Colne.
Felton, Theedom, Burle, Lesiak, O'Brien, Johnstone (Robinson) (Burlong), Davies, Hill (Mansfield), Exley, Coote, White.

Match Report - Reserve Team v Coggeshall Town Reserves
It was the Ressies first game back after the Xmas break and high flying Coggeshall were the visitors. Matt Cross was back in the team after a long layoff following a fractured wrist. And Alex Tibbert was set to make his debut.
The pre-match talk from the management team was for more passion and commitment from all players if they wished to start getting results. This was obviously taken on board as Colne started brightly. Early exchanges were even. On 10 minutes, Cross broke clear, but was chased down by the defender, who’s challenge was enough to prevent him getting in a clean shot. Bright was looking sharp, and his excellent close control and ability to beat players was causing Coggeshall to double up on him whenever possible....

Taken from Barnston AFC match report on the game:
"Full credit to the home goal keeper who had a very good game and pulled off two fantastic saves from one on one positions. Also, our appreciation goes to Earls Colne for providing a wonderful surface to play on, and for some very warm hospitality...
