Colchester and proud!

Parking is very limited on the streets around Layer Road these days, and dont be tempted to park where you shouldnt, the local traffic wardens always do the rounds while the game is on and nick loads of unfortunate souls just trying to watch a football game.
If you cant park on the road head for the Abbey Fields where there is parking for 1000 plus cars and its free!
For those that dont know where it is, directions from the stadium is as follows.
Drive past the ground heading towards the town centre and the Drury pub(as you face the ground you are driving towards the right)
At the roundabout in front of the Drury turn right onto Butt Road, then take the next right turn and then the next left.
You will see a sign saying this road is closed but this is only if you want to go all the way through it, ignore that sign drive in and the Abbey Fields are on your right.
There will be stewards and probably police in attendance for this game, so there should not be any trouble.
If you want to go to a pub, walk back onto Butt Road and turn right towards the town centre, and after 200-300 yards you will find the Dragoon that normally entertains both home and away fans, I dont know if this will be the case with the Drury, it may be home fans only or even closed altogether.
