U`s keep fingers crossed over duo

Colchester are monitoring defenders Marc Tierney and Pat Baldwin this week after both suffered injuries during Saturday's goalless draw at Southampton. Full-back Tierney was forced off with a hip injury during the first half while centre-half Baldwin suffered an ankle knock and failed to appear after half-time. "They both suffered direct blows so hopefully they're not as severe as pulls and strains," said manager John Ward. "We will do a bit of work with them this week and hopefully we'll get them back."
