Colchester United vs Bromley preview

In the last five years, Colchester United have had ten changes of manager. In the last four seasons, they’ve finished 20th, 15th, 20th, and 22nd. The results speak for themselves.

Hoping to revive the club’s fortunes, when the U’s looked for yet another manager in January 2024, they opted for the local duo of Danny and Nicky Cowley.

The Cowleys’ story is well known in the football world. Successful stints at Concord Rangers and Braintree Town earned them a move to National League promotion-chasers Lincoln City. Not only did they guide the Imps into the Football League at the first time of asking, they took them into League One two seasons later.
