🌍 From Alexander Wood in 1930 to Tommy Smith & Owen Goodman in 2026, we've created a new page celebrating @ColU_Official's World Cup connections.
Have we missed anyone? We'd love to hear from you.

@SteveWooly2@philunwin We try to keep the Coludata contract tracker as accurate as possible, although some details are not always officially confirmed publicly.
As far as we are currently aware, this is the current #colu position.

As the season comes to an end, a sincere thank you to everyone who has supported @coludata this year.
178 matches have been added to the website this season — something only possible because of help from supporters, contributors, media, photographers and historians.

@philunwin@sears11GOAT@liamb0798 For reference, some of the lowest home league gates (excluding 2020/21 behind closed doors):
Exeter 2,028
Bristol Rovers 2,069
Hartlepool 2,115
Barrow 2,297
Rochdale 2,298
All in 2021/22.
(Football League, home matches only)
#ColU
@philunwin@sears11GOAT@liamb0798 That’s right. Lowest recent home league attendances do largely fall in 2021/22 — but context is key.
Crowds were still recovering post-COVID, which significantly suppressed figures across that season.
#ColU
Further recognition from the end-of-season awards:
Goal of the Season – Arthur Read
Young Player of the Year – Kyreece Lisbie
A standout moment recognised for Read, while Lisbie’s award reflects his impact across the season.
#ColU
Well deserved recognition for Jack Tucker, named @ColU_Official Player of the Season last night.
He also picked up:
Players’ Player of the Year
CUSA Player of the Year and
CUSA Away Player of the Year
An outstanding season. #Colu
