U's full of confidence

Colchester United are full of confidence for tonight's fixture at The Valley.   In the view of one of their legends, the pressure is all on Charlton: http://www.essexcountystandard.co.uk/sport/9571972.U_s_will_be_full_of_confidence__says_legend_Hunt/

'Red hot' striker Steven Gillespie is out for revenge after a goal he scored last February at The Valley was disallowed after the intervention of the fourth official: http://www.gazette-news.co.uk/sport/headlines/9571955.Gillespie_out_to_banish_Valley_memory/

I think this is going to be a more difficult match than most people allow, but I still think we will be able to manage a 2-1 win.

Pathé Gazette footage recalls Charlton's promotion from third to first division in two seasons in the 1930s.  Perhaps we should bring back Jimmy Seed's magnetic board, but not the baggy shorts!http://britishpathe.com/video/football-comes-in-charlton-athletic-in-training/query/charlton+athletic
