Cowley condemns alleged racism

Colchester United have condemned an incident of alleged racist abuse aimed at one of their players during a League Two game - for the second time this season.

The allegation was made after the U's goalless draw at Fleetwood Town's Highbury Stadium on Saturday, 30 November.

It comes after racist abuse was allegedly directed at Colchester striker Samson Tovide during a 1-1 draw at Accrington in August.

Colchester posted on X they were "very disappointed" to hear about the allegation, and were "fully supporting Fleetwood in their investigations along with the police".
