Just taken this off the BBC Sport Website. Not 100% accurate, but always good to see the Albion mentioned in glowing terms!!
I was at Addams Park for the visit of Witton Albion for the last game of the '91/92 season. Wycombe wanted to win by 12 clear goals and Colchester to draw for us to go up. Witton Albion players gave us the “we’re not worthy” sign and their supporters were chanting “Champions” at us. The following Wendesday, Witton were due to face Colchester in the FA vase trophy final. We responded with “We hope you win the trophy”! Finally the whole ground errupted as one “WE HATE COLCHESTER”! Hope this helps! (We won 4-0 but they also won hence another year in the conference ensued)
Agree with Post #2! Go to Ipswich!

i’ll take the wycombe rivarly if you don’t mind?
the 1991/1992 season saw colchester & wycombe locked together in the conference fighting for a return to league football. the u’s player/manager at the time, roy mcdonough, used every opportunity to stoke the rival between the clubs, players & supporters. ultimately, both clubs ended 21 points clear of the rest of the division with colchester gaining promotion on the final day of the season by way of a superior goal difference. that same season colchester also lifted the fa trophy with a 3-1 win against witton albion - the match marked the first goal scored by an american at wembley (mike masters of colchester). and to top it off colchester also won 2-1 at wymcombe in the league by virture of an injury time goal from their goalkeeper scott barrett…from inside his own penalty area.
enjoy your visit fellas. up the u’s.
