Colchester United made it six games unbeaten with a 3-1 win over Cheltenham Town today.
The U's fell behind in the 56th minute when Chris Westwood headed in Ian Westlake's corner.
But Colchester were back on level terms barely six minutes later when Dean Hammond headed in Mark Yeates' free-kick from close range.
Robins substitute John Finnigan was sent off after picking up two bookings in quick succession.
And the U's were ahead for the first time in the match soon after through former Cheltenham striker Steven Gillespie, who headed in from Pat Baldwin's cross.
The impressive Yeates then rounded off victory in the final minute, scoring at the second attempt after keeper Scott Brown had saved his first attempt.
