1992–93 Colchester United F.C. season
Encyclopedia
The 1992–93 season was Colchester United's
first season back in the Football League and fourth tier of English football
after being crowned Conference
champions, finishing 1st.
James Bowdidge stepped down because of business commitments handing over the Chair to former reserve player Gordon Parker.
United lost Mike Masters, an American
, because of work permit problems and Scott Barrett
to a richer contract.
The U's lost four of their first five games and sunk to the bottom, they also suffered a hefty FA fine for their indiscipline on the field with Roy McDonough
one of the main culprits. The attacking approach was not as effective against League teams and United concede a 7, a 5 and 4 goals on six occasions. Despite this they rallied, with a young Mark Kinsella
blossoming and finished just four points shy of a play-off place.
With 79 bookings and three red cards it was apt that their new blue shirts had an upward pointing repeating arrow which many fans, upset at the loss of striped shirts, dubbed the 'jailbird' kit.
