1964–65 Colchester United F.C. season
Encyclopedia
The 1964–65 season was Colchester United's
third consecutive season in the Football League Third Division
. The season ended in relegation for only the second time in Colchester's history to the Football League Fourth Division
.
was not on the retained list. Playing his entire career as a part-timer Wright set the record for appearances in a United shirt completing 453 League and Cup games scoring 99 goals. He was only 30 at the time of his release.
Manager Neil Franklin
also sold Martyn King to Wrexham in October 1964. This, and the sale of Bobby Hunt
the previous season, did not impress the U's faithful. Bringing in 14 new players in just a season and a half proved too much of an upheaval for United. The loss of their prolific strike force was naturally the most devastating blow and only 50 League goals were scored. Inevitably United struggled throughout the season.
Franklin's first signings Derek Trevis
and Duncan Forbes
were ever-presents with Billy Stark being leading scorer with just 13 League goals. Colchester were relegated back to the Fourth Division
with Franklin having already being given a year's contract extension mid-season. Average attendances hit an all-time low of 3,655 and the Supporters Club could only muster 997 members - a far cry from the heady days of the late 1940s.
