    A roman throw back no doubt. There was probably a defensive point a mile away from the main Fort. Colchester was the original roman capital of england

    Don't know Bronco.
    You get a rough old crowd in Betty's cafe with their zimmer frames and walking sticks.

    I went to last season's away game at Hartlepool. It was pretty heavy outside the ground after the match. Bricks being thrown, very big police presence.

    A 3 year ban and fine already given to a lad on twitter. Amazing how so many folk just laughing it off as lads just being lads.

    Rochdale away last season was the worst I saw. I can cope with it but very unfair on the very young and the elderly at that game. I was in a block 2 from the left hand side and gangways filled up with pissed/coked up "fans"
    The behaviour of some, particularly the angst against stewards and police was embarrassing.

    Guarantee now, the game on 15th April will not be a 3pm kick off.

    I had the misfortune to be near these cretins, ruined a great away win for me.
    I was more worried about getting the Mrs safely away afterwards
    Used to love awaydays but not any more.
    Colchester might be far enough away to discourage them tho'

    Our friends at Harrogate are a family club, hundreds in the home end last year with no trouble, the early kick off is to avoid too much pre drinking with city fan's.

    After last year's trouble with the monkey hangers moving the kick off to an earlier time is a sensible move.

    The games with most potential for trouble is Stockport and Grimsby away going from my previous experience.

    There was crowd unrest for a big chunk of last season.

    You would be surprised. We do the Harrogate day out for breakfast followed by a few beers from time to time. We live in Eccleshill so used to get the bus that goes via the Airport. We have started getting the train as the connections from Leeds are good so it's comparable with the bus time wise plus the train as an on-board toilet, which is quite important at my time of life.
