Summary

Description
English: Colchester United's Layer Rd Ground. Layer Road has been the venue for Colchester’s footie team since the 1909-10 season. Colchester Town F.C was wound up and Colchester United founded in 1937. The U’s finest hour came in the 5th round of the 1971 F.A Cup when the 4th Division Side beat the 1st Division (equivalent of premier league now) League Champions Leeds United 3-2. Not being much of a soccer fan I was in TM0024 at the time and could hear the roar each time a goal went in! The Layer Rd stadium is due to be replaced for the 2007-8 season with a brand new stadium at 132822to the north of the town.
