Founded in 1937, Colchester were elected to the League in 1950, after finishing as runners-up in the Southern League in the previous season. Their first meeting with the Town was only their second in league football - recording a 1-1 draw at the County Ground - before returning to Layer Road a week later to humble Swindon by four goals to one.
