We love our former U's, well most of them anyway, so thought I'd start a thread where we can keep up with them.
Thought I'd kick things off with a happier moment for Matt Jay in Essex as he scored a long ranger against Chelmsford at the weekend. It wasn't a joyous return though as Torquay shipped two late goals to lose 3-2 after leading 2-0.

Jay also got the equaliser away at Weston-super-Mare last night. Hopefully he's starting to enjoy his football again. [Post edited 26 Feb 13:55]

I had nothing against Chuck, but I'm not sure he'd be the right fit for us these days? |  |

Exactly my reaction when I saw it! |
Weird coincidence - the other day the highlights of our FA Cup win at Sudbury popped up as a YouTube suggestion, so I watched it. McCoulsky scored our 4th goal, and a good one it was too. Don't remember anything else he achieved, and he was gone again by Christmas I think. | |

Made six appearances, all from the bench, scored against Sudbury on his debut. I actually thought he was decent enough to keep at the time. | |

Former Colchester United man Drey Wright has joined Dundee.
Credit to him in carving out a career in Scotland since leaving the U’s in 2018. Has now played almost roughly the same amount of appearances north of the border than his time at the U’s. | |

Good move that for Newby. I'm tipping York to win the National League next season. Always felt he was a little unfortunate during his time here. | |

I was really hoping we'd re-sign him, we can't afford that kind of fee though. Do feel like he should be playing at a higher level than League Two. | |

Aaron Collins has signed for MK Dons. They are putting a very good squad together. Perhaps they will finally live up to being favourites yet again. Their odds are extremely short though. | | | |

No surprise there unfortunately. Once they got promoted we were never in with a chance of tempting him back. | |
