A number of supporters have been contacted by players, backroom staff or someone from Football in the Community enquiring how they are managing in these difficult times and in some cases offering help including shopping.

This gesture is much appreciated by CUSA, bringing together the fans and the football club, whilst we are all missing our football during the lockdown.

Keep safe and well, we all need to play our part in seeing off this invasive virus

Very sorry to have lost one of our most loyal of members, and a man who was utterly devoted to Colchester United for so many years. He will be sorely missed and all of our thoughts and prayers go to his family and friends at this most terrible of times. RIP Paul Wright

Paul had a unique "affection" for referees, particularly one or two, which are best not to name publicly. All who knew him will really miss his critical opinion of the men in black

Huge congratulations to Jamie Cureton, Chris Iwelumo and Lomana Tresor Lua Lua, for being inducted into the U's Hall of Fame

U's fan Aaron Finch is undertaking a massive challenge in aid of MIND, the mental health charity, and has sent us the following appeal:

On Sunday 5th July, I will be completing a summit of Yorkshire's three tallest peaks in one day, which will see me accomplish an ascent of 1,532m – higher than Ben Nevis, and cover a marathon distance trek – but with three hills!

I will be completing this challenge with people from across the football community, and this challenge will be a test of fitness, endurance and team spirit. Because dealing with a mental health problem is no walk in the park!

This is a charity close to me so I would appreciate your help in reaching my target! Any donations are greatly appreciated!

Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to Mind. 

Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this.

Safe Standing update from the Football Supporters Association:

"This week the Government has confirmed that it will be implementing its manifesto commitment to reform the all-seater legislation covering the Championship and Premier League. Sports minister Nigel Adams said the Government is “keen to deliver” its pledge on allowing standing sections to be introduced in the top two divisions.

The Sports Ground Safety Authority (SGSA) has been tasked by the Government to produce a new report ahead of any legislation coming to Parliament. SGSA inspectors will be visiting several grounds over the course of the season and report back to the Department of Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) with their findings"

Whilst only the top 2 divisions are being discussed at the moment, it is at least a step in the right direction. For all of the report please visit the News section at www.thefsa.org.uk
