Lambert Wary Of Bulls

Colchester boss Paul Lambert has warned his side to be careful of the Bulls in tomorrow's game after the club recorded back to back wins for the first time in nearly two years:

"To go 19 months without back-to-back wins is incredible. It beggars belief how it happened. Consistency is vital - when I first came here people told me that we couldn't win at home and that we couldn't get back-to-back wins. But in a short space of time, we have done both. What we have done so far has been really fine - we have a momentum and the club is vibrant.

"Hereford did great to get promotion to League One but they've found this season more difficult. But it's still a dangerous game for us and it's up to us to do as well as we have over the last two games."

Their official site names a 19 man squad for the game, with goalkeeper Dean Gerken and Anthony Wordsworth both back in contention. Squad: Walker, Cousins, Gerken, White, Ifil, Baldwin, Tierney, Reid, Coyne, Jackson, Perkins, Yeates, Izzet, Hammond, Wordsworth, Vernon, Wasiu, Platt, Easter.

The U's will welcome an extra 300 schoolkids on free tickets at tomorrow's game as they continue their promotion with the local Sports Trust.
