Colchester United fans will be able to get their hands on parts of the club history when the U's hold a special auction at Layer Road later this year.

As the club prepare for their new life at the Weston Homes Community Stadium, they will be providing supporters from around the globe with the opportunity to bid for parts of their old ground, which was home to the club for some seventy years.

From office furniture to turnstiles, different parts of the Layer Road stadium will go under the hammer at an auction to be held in July. There will be assets big and small, with something to suit every budget!

The catalogue of lots and the day of bidding will be co-ordinated by local auctioneers Stanfords, who have been running auctions for over one hundred years in the town.

Stanfords are based just around the corner from the club's new stadium in the north of Colchester and have great experience of running auctions, in the town and surrounding areas.

A full catalogue of lots will be made available in due course, including an online version for fans to download.

A viewing day will be held at Layer Road on Saturday, July 19th with the auction itself to be held on Sunday July 20th.

Further details will be issued both through the official website and via the local press.

I may bid up to £1.00 for Karl Duguid as they appear to be getting rid of all the old rubbish from Layer Road, only question is what would I do with him if my bid won? hmmmmmmmmmmm ;)
