1975–76 Colchester United F.C. season
Encyclopedia
The 1975–76 season was Colchester United's
second consecutive season in the Football League Third Division
. The season ended in relegation back to the Football League Fourth Division
.
run of the 1974–75 season had brought recognition - only it was for U's manager Jim Smith
who left to join Second Division
Blackburn
in the summer of 1975. His coach Bobby Roberts was appointed manager. His early days were disastrous. Not only did United not win any of their first five games, but Smith returned with £25,000 to prise away Bobby Svarc from cash-strapped U's.
Roberts' side rallied mid-season to climb to twelfth place but some crushing defeats including 6-1 at Chesterfield
and 6-0 at Brighton
put Colchester back into the relegation mire. The U's also suffered the ignominy of a second successive defeat to a non-League side when they were demolished 4-1 at Dover Athletic
in an FA Cup
replay. Inevitably United were relegated with Steve Leslie being leading scoring with a record lowest total of just six League goals.
