    It was 1-0 mate.

    They battered us for 85 minutes, Hales got sent off then Dickenson crossed form the left, it hit a defender and trickled through the keepers legs. Don't think it even made the net.

    I remember the wooden stand falling apart and getting crushed when we scored. I was about 15.

    Would think it maybe easier for a lot of those going to go from Stratford.

    bear in mind that colchester station is an absolute mission from the ground (complicated 40min walk easy)
    and that the nearer station (colchester town) is only rarely served a couple of times per hour...
  • Options
    it is 15-20 mins max spoke to a cutomer i know there and also just rang colchester fc both said 15-20 mins at the max
  • Options
    in the programme it says its a long walk.

    it also mentions 4 adult group save train ticket, is that just through syd cheesewright or can anyone get on that? be well handy for us if so! £11 each!
  • Options
    Programme said roughly £5 in a cab.
