John McGreal will be in charge for Sunday's fixture as the new First Team coach:

Will we experience the new manager halo effect - players playing for next year/for a contract? Those of us who will be there will enjoy it whatever and it would be great if we could score 3 goals and push them up to the century for goals conceded this season. I am sure Hendo will be trying! |  | | |  |

I'll be there.
Live less than 20 miles away from Colchester.
Hope to meet a few Dale fans on the day.
Nothing riding on the game but hope Dale put in a shift at least for those travelling from Lancashire. |  | | |

Same here, my local game (as a Suffolk exile) and I can't wait for Sunday.
Any ideas for fancy dress or is that not happening this year? | | | |

I think the fancy dress theme this year will be empty seats!
Saying that though I will also be there on Sunday | | | |

Anyone recommend places to park on Sunday? |
At the ground itself. There is a huge parking area. The arena is out of town situated in an area of "nothingness" | | | |

So on Sunday Colchester will have a manager on the touchline and Dale won't?
I'm a bit surprised there's been no comment on KH being in the States. But I'm sure the personal matter that's taken him there couldn't allow any delay and isn't job-related. He wouldn't have issued an early release list if he didn't intend to be around next season, would he?
As for the prospect of Dale finishing with a win, I'm not expecting an easy, 'dead rubber', early afternoon (what IS the logic of the changed KO times?). Colchester's form in their last half dozen matches has been mid-table level, and as commented the players will be hoping to impress the new boss. | | | |

Hillys dad lives in America so it'll be personal.
12.30 ko is so Sky can show a live game without interfering with Prem games.
Donny v Burton is on.
All the games have to kick off at the same time on the final day. |  |

123, mostly south-east based Daleys.
Before flying off, did KH, as well as saying those released won't feature, mention whether he's picked Sunday's team? Or will that be BBM's job? | | | |

It'll be Chris Beech's final decision you'd imagine, but of course they'll discuss the team before KH goes (whenever he may be flying, if not already). |  | | |

I believe you can park and the nearby park and ride for £3. | | | |

Given the ticketing arrangements probably only an option for Dale fans based in the area, but it might be possible to fit in the Conference play off second leg at Braintree after the Dale game:

They're 1-0 up after the first leg at Grimsby, so a reasonable chance of them being in the League next season. Their crowds are quite small but they are part-timers. |  | | |
