The Who's Who of Colchester United: The Layer Road Years

After 71 years at their dilapidated Layer Road Ground, Colchester United are set to move to a brand new 10,000-seater, expandable to 18,000, stadium for the 2008 season.
The Who’s Who of Colchester United celebrates the players who played first-team football during the Layer Road years. Every player has their appearance and goal statistics listed, along with a career history and many previously unseen photographs. From the 1930s goalkeeper Ronnie Dunn, who ‘bugled’ his teammates onto the pitch with ‘The Post-Horn Gallop’, to surprise wartime guest internationals and products of the present day youth scheme who have progressed to the Premiership, they are all included.
The Who’s Who of Colchester United is a must for all U’s fans and is a valuable resource for football followers and statisticians alike.
