Joe Edwards: 'Colchester United must now push on'

Joe Edwards wants to see Colchester United remain focused as they look to keep their decent run of form going at Swindon Town on Saturday afternoon.

Colchester United midfielder Joe Edwards has urged his teammates to "push on" while confidence in the camp remains at a high.

The U's have won back-to-back games in League One to climb into mid-table over the past fortnight.

Edwards believes that Colchester, who failed to win any of their opening six league fixtures, are now in a good position to build some further momentum heading into the remainder of the season.

"There's a lot of confidence in the group at the moment and we know we've got a very good, talented bunch of boys," he is quoted as saying by the Daily Gazette.

"If we can keep that going with results, that brings confidence. We've got three good results in the space of a week and now we can look forward to Swindon on Saturday.

"Now's the time to push on - we've had a good few weeks but we can't look back. We need to keep going now and stay sharp and go to Swindon with a lot of confidence."

Edwards has made nine appearances for United since joining from Yeovil Town in the summer.
