Colchester have a legends bar?? on 20:42 - Oct 9 with 791 views | oldburian | In the fifties we were battling with Colchester and Torquay for promotion. We played Colchester at Layer Road towards the end of the season and, at a crucial time, Benny Fenton missed a penalty. The excuse was that Colchester could not afford to go up to the second division so the player/manager had to miss it. Quite a few years later having moved to North Essex, an Ipswich hating Col U supporter tried to make the point that it was the last match of the season and Ipswich were lucky to go up. Unfortunately for him I could prove there was still 13 games left. That apparently was the only time he was wrong in his life! |  | |  |

Doesn’t matter if it’s Colchester or Harchester United, the rules are the same: You keep your head down, you reach peak performing artist and you’ll be called a legend of the locker room too. All us fans need to know is that the Legends Bar is two blocks that way. |  |

Good point. I seem to recall almost a third of our FA cup winning team ended up there, albeit they probably won’t be joining Mr Crawford on the legends photo wall. More recently, seem to remember a chunk Paul Cook’s infamous bomb-squad stunk the place out for a while… [Post edited 10 Oct 20:51]

I think the only two players in colchester's official hall of fame with strong Town connections are Crawford and D Gregory. I'd say the others who''d be good candidates are certainly Osborne, and maybe Stockwell. Personally I'd add Geraint Williams. |  | |  |
