Got my two this morning. Hoping for a draw so we can continue the good work of Saturday back st The Valley. Assuming it would be open, would buy tickets for the replay in the West Lower so I can see the whites of her eyes and Murray's. Mind you, they are probably a bit jaundiced at the moment.
Non existent near the ground. I ended up parking a good mile and a half away. Not sure if Colchester offer any parking at the ground as it's a decent sized car park there. There are also some industrial units nearby that didn't offer any parking last time I went but may well do so now?
Edit:
Just picked this off the football grounds guide website:
Car Parking:
There 700 car parking spaces at the stadium which cost £6. As only a certain number of them are made available to away fans it is essential that you pre-book your space by calling the Ticket Office on 0845 437 9089. In the event that the car park is full, then the club direct fans to an overspill car park located on the nearby industrial estate (about a 10-15 minute walk away from the stadium) which costs £8. There is also an extensive residents only parking scheme in operation around the stadium, so you may need to journey to over a mile away, before you can park anywhere.
Edit 2!
Just purchased a car park ticket online (Colchester Utd official site) and printed it off. It cost £6.
A new Colchester Town Centre Park and Ride service has been recently introduced, the car park to which is situated on the opposite side of the A12 to the Weston Homes Stadium (signposted just off Junction 28). This car park has 1,000 spaces and fans attending games are welcome to use the car park. It costs £3 to park there and it closes at 7.30pm for Saturday games and 10.30pm for midweek matches. From the car park it is then a relatively short walk five minute across the A12 bridge to the stadium. There is also a McDonalds restaurant located next to the Park and Ride.

Been to 3 away games this season - Derby, Forest, Birmingham - will be there on Saturday, so no defeat expected - anyone know if Black and White scarves will be on sale at the game?

It will probably be a let down because .... well look at this season, but I'm looking forward to it just the same.

Or also on the side (jobserve)
Just out of interest
If the recent ones are in jobserve, you are now buying a better view
