Last updated : 01 July 2004 By Michael Morris
The defender, released by Cardiff at the end of last season, has moved back to Essex and has agreed to train with Colchester as he prepares for a new challenge next season.

Uniteds assistant manager Geraint Williams told CU-FC.com

"Spencer is looking to get fit for pre-season and has asked to come in and train with us. It also gives us the opportunity to take a closer look at him and see what he might be able to offer us."

Spencer has had talks with Southend but does not want to drop to Coca Cola League 2 (Division 3). There was also talk he could join Andy Legg at Peterborough.

Best of luck to Spencer whatever he decides.

Speaking of Andy Legg he has signed a new 2 year contract at London Rd. Boss Barry Fry told the Peterborough official website

"I am delighted Andy has signed a new two-year contract, a deal he was always going to agree to. Andy is a very important part of this football club.

"As well as having an outstanding second half of the season on the pitch he is also a part of my management team. I am delighted Andy has committed his future to us."

Gavin Gordon is due to complete his move to Notts County today and Mark Bonner has already signed a two year deal at Oldham after his initial contract until the end of last season.
