No I can't find it. The only Colchester one I've found near to the time is this one of two seasons later............

If anyone can tell me the number 8 in the line up for Colchester then they'll win a lollipop or the programme if they really want it (now you know why I don't know what's happened to some of my programmes over the years :D ).

I've just been flicking through said programme and the player profile is on Paul Comstive.

One question that was asked of him was............ Should England still be banned from Europe?

Comstive's answer...... No because it is a worldwide problem, not just England's.

Well said, and peace be with him.

..and for me, all of that stuff in the eighties makes me appreciate, even more, the fact that I can look at Saturday's fixture list and see that we're playing Southampton in the toughest club league in the world, as favourites to win, sitting in 12th position - and it doesn't seem undeserved, wrong or out of place at all. This is our rightful place to be. We have truly earned it.
