1871 RoyalFour Of Clubs ... and @ Colchester 'our lad' Mooney (he IS still ours isn't he - or have I missed something ?) puts out Supermarine 1-0.
Yeah he still plays for us. Sometimes I have to remind myself that. http://www.readingfc.co.uk/page/ProfilesDetail/0,,10306~44553,00.html
I was at that game. As welll as Mooney turning out for Colchester, an ex-plyer of ours turned out for Supermarine. Matthew Robinson was at left back. I had a brief chat with him before the game. He looks pretty much the same as he did 10 years ago, but is 37 now and feels that this could well be his last season. He is a policeman now(!)
Mooney is doing OK for Colchester but needs better service. There is a general lack of quality throughout the Colchester side and they are over-achieving to be so high up in the league.
