New boy Gareth Williams is aiming for a ten-goal haul with Colchester United.
Snapped up from First Division Crystal Palace on a month's loan by U's boss Steve Whitton, the South African-born Welsh striker is already relishing the prospect of making his debut against Blackpool at home tomorrow.
"The first thing I want to do is to come here and score goals," said 21-year-old Williams.

"And if I can cap my debut that way and help Colchester to climb up the table I'll be very happy."
Of his immediate future, Williams said: "If things work out for me here and there's no chance of breaking into the Palace side, I'll be more than willing to extend my loan period.
"And if I get to play in every game I'd love to finish up with something like ten goals."
Whitton said: "Gareth is a very clever player in the same mould as Graham Barrett.
"If he makes the same impact I'll be more than happy and it's already in our minds about extending his stay here."
