Colchester United

A football team based in Colchester, Essex who play in League Two in England and play home fixtures at the JobServe Community Stadium. Colchester Utd was founded in the year 1937. Colchester can brag something only 3 other English teams can do so as well. In 1971, Colchester, after a 4-4 with West Bromwich Albion, Colchester and WBA took to penalties where The U's ran out 4-3 winners, this resulted in Colchester lifting the 1971 Watney Cup at The Hawthorns, as for the 3 other teams who won it, Derby won it in 1970, Bristol Rovers in 72, and Stoke City in 73, after the 1973 edition to the Watney Cup, the competition was scrapped completely. In the 18/19 Season, The U's finished 8th in League Two with 70 pts, therefore missing out on play-offs for yet another year. And the best thing about COLU, is that... I support them!!! Truly amazing.

The U's attained their highest position in England when they finished 10th in the EFL Championship in the 06/07 season back in the Layer Road days.
