5 years ago we suffered a heartbreaking (in the footballing sense -not the "real life" sense!) defeat at Colchester that saw us relying on Tranmere to get something at the McScabs to keep us up - Gareth Edds scoring a late-late winner against a hugely depleted Tranmere side to ensure it was us and not them that went down.
It was good to see Edds get sent-off playing for Tranmere - a minute before Scunny equalised against them to ensure it was them and not the scousers (I call them that because my Tranmere support friend hates it!) that made the play-offs!
I suppose we can hardly have anyone else to blame for that relegation but ourselves for fluffing our lines on the last day, but it still hurt at the time.....
