Tomorrow us, Cambridge and Colchester all have home games. |  | | |  |

I can recall my dad and I going to watch Cambridge at home v Tranmere one morning and then on to PR to see Town in the afternoon. It may have been a Boxing Day or New Year's Day fixture - probably in the early 90's.
No idea whether Colchester were also at home.
Edit: it seems it was Boxing Day 1990 and Town lost 1-0 to Middlesbrough in the afternoon in front of 12k people. TWTD...
Colchester drew 0-0 at home to Barnet

Top three clubs in East Anglia all playing at home on the same day must be fairly uncommon. |  |

12,508. I was at the game but can’t remember anything about it. No surprise really. 12k wasn’t too bad a crowd for us in those days. 10k, 11k was more normal, with the odd exception such as West Ham or Newcastle.
Crowds in general were much smaller in those days. I notice Newcastle’s crowd against us was only 17,600. |  | | |

No membership or obsession about points needed in those days. What joy there was to be had watching David Hill and Andy Bernal strutting their stuff in the midwinter mud. | |
