The seemingly unstoppable Colchester United bandwagon rolls further onwards.

And for the last couple of weeks I was wishing someone had brought me a thesaurus for Christmas rather than just socks.

The barrel for superlatives on how the U's are just ripping through the opposition in the Coca-Cola League One is well and truly scrapped at the moment.

There is one word, though, that can simply sum up the performance put in by Phil Parkinson's charges on Saturday against Walsall - clinical.

It was two sharp set-pieces that now means that the U's have claimed a now sublime 14 wins out of their last 16 games.

Firstly, Neil Danns, and then Chris Iwelumo, struck from a routine that was practically identical within the space of just over ten minutes in the second half.
