I was behind that goal, with my back turned.  One of the most excruciating experiences of my life.  (It didn't help that the ref then went on to play 3½ weeks of extra time after Zippy scored.)

I'm the proud owner of a ticket to Colchester. I am also the owner of a car without an MOT (an annual occurrence) so my friend is driving. Sweet.

Theres a free bus which goes from behind the big yellow storage place which you can see from the station.  Takes you right to the ground.  About 3 pubs within 5 min walk of the station

From Col U OS:

There are plenty of pubs and restaurants in the town centre and visiting fans may find that getting to the ground in this way is an enjoyable one.

No shit!

Millwall fans were boasting yesterday, that there were more of them than the Colchester fans.

The pitch looked as if it had dried out,but pretty bare and bumpy, looking at the FL Show last night.

Complete fluke of an own goal won the match.

I looked at the pitch....maybe better than what it has been.  I don't think we could complain about luck after Tranny's OG and pen..

Just thought I would post summary of parking info from the Football Fans Guide website:
There 600 car parking spaces at the stadium which cost ?5. Most of the streets nearby have residents parking.
Alternatives are parking factories in the business park that leads to the ground and parking north of the bridge over the A12.

I don't like the idea of parking in the Town centre, then getting bus to the train station then shuttle to the ground, but parking at the ground sounds like a way to sit for an hour in the car afterwards - what does everyone else recommend?

No, you can pay on the day if you don't mind standing in a queue for an hour or so.

Ticket from the CG before hand recommended.

Thanks for that. I'm not in Swindon so I'll aim to get to the ground in plenty of time, then.
