I commented to several people today that he gave Turns an absolutely nightmare all game and looked a cut above out level. His work rate and strength was impressive and he really put a shift in. Lo and behold I just looked him up an he is an Ex-O from our academy and born in Hackney. Now it makes sense why he put a performance in like that, he clearly had a point to prove and well play to the young fella, didn't he show it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samson_Tovide |

How many times can those in charge of this sector get it wrong? Are the Scouting Dept. checking the Academies of our neighbours to see if any players are being let go that deserve an opportunity at the O's? |

I'm not saying we got it wrong or anything like that. But the young fella really did seem to have a point to prove!
We can't keep everyone on, we ain't Chelsea!
His record isn't particularly prolific either. But just goes to show what you can do when you get a bit of fire in your belly.

Some are late developers,some don’t develop and some we miss . |

Tbh I thought it was more that Turns had a bad day ( like several others) rather than the Colchester player being anything special . Only my view of course.

He fell over alot, didn't see a shot from him and his goal return of 1 all season suggests he's not a goal scorer either.
I wonder why he was released???

Turns received a yellow card so he had to be more cautious in his tackling
With Thompson and Ogie on the bench I was surprised Richie didn't replace him

The yellow was because the #34 out muscled him and had left him for dead. A good technical foul by Turns 🙂 |
