Very nice effort this year! That GK shirt in particular though is fire...

With 2 weeks to go until the #ColU kits are launched, it's time for my annual kit design exercise. This year, I would lean massively into the Roman heritage of the town, something we don't often do, specifically the Roman mosaics found in the town

The #ColU away kit would hero the mosaic aesthetic, but with design features celebrating the county of Essex, the cross of St Helena, Colchester's patron Saint, and the club's Roman eagle. The badge would be a stylised eagle only with the clubs founding year in Roman numerals.

Accidentally posted 2 of the same images at the top. Here's the third to round out the suite! #ColU

The step regression of the UK's underclass is just so depressing. I am 51 and as a football obsessed kid in the late 70s, 80s and 90s, I witnessed a clear reduction in the racist bullshit in football. Genuine, serious progression. Now, I'm not naive enough to think that the racists went away or changed their views, but it became an unacceptable trait within the game and things changed so much for the better. Now, in 2026, with the rise of Reform UK and Ruprecht's Restore, we see these vile characters, openly espousing racism again. Taking pride in their bigotry. ☹️ Where did we go so wrong, as a nation?
Harry Maguire, who is English and Northern Irish… … has been demographically replaced in the England World Cup team by an African named ‘Addji Keaninkin Marc-Israel Guéh’ born in Ivory Coast. What’s the point in a ‘national’ football team if someone who is NOT from that nation can join? Maguire should play for England. Guéh should play for Ivory Coast. Common sense. I’m sure Maguire isn’t even allowed to contest this decision because, as his shirt says in the photo below, ‘no room for racism’.

So not only would we be fronted by the unlikable JT, the money is apparently coming from Saudi? Looks like #ColU are trying to play bad guy bingo. Just waiting for the Donald Trump endorsement next.
Replying to @Betson365
Also, whilst the individuals aren't know - the 'money' in the room sounds to be from Saudi #colu

Hey @UmActuallyShow, in your S11 question about Ted Lasso you stated he joined the "British Premier League", when such a league doesn't exist! It's actually the "English Premier League" as the Football Associations are divided amongst England, Scotland, Wales, N. Ire, & Ireland

Not that it matters because it's L2 and VAR isn't a thing here, but for something I thought was well offside at the time, it might have actually been onside after all (or at the least way closer than I first thought) #colu #ctfc

Obviously I can't be 100% on shoulder positions given the hard cam location, but the feet are level at least

Gotta love seeing Holloway storm down the tunnel at the full time whistle whilst waving angrily at DC. He really doesn't like us it seems 😂 #Colu

Think today showed that we are really missing that destructive midfielder. Yes the likes of Edwards and to a degree Anderson were also off it today, but I think we stop that goal earlier in the move with the right attributes in the middle #colu

Another goal line scramble. Tucker with a double block following up Macey's save. Oldham knocking... #ColU #oafc

Does feel like with the scrapping of matchday programmes, there truly is a void to be filled for a new #ColU fanzine to be born...

It's home kit speculation season for #ColU fans. Here's a few designs because i'm bored waiting for news of the takeover. First one is a prediction based on the latest Macron templates...

Second #colu design is a bit more out there with its use of patterns within the stripes

And the third #colu design is a bit more expected, but still showing some variation with the stripes
