Colchester will be without Anthony Wordsworth and Josh Payne when they travel to Conference South side Bromley in the FA Cup first round.

Young winger Wordsworth is suspended after collecting five yellow cards this season and West Ham have not given on-loan midfielder Payne permission to play in the competition.

But the Us' four other loanees - Kevin Lisbie, Danny Batth, John-Joe O'Toole and Kayode Odejayi - have all been cleared to play by their parent clubs.

Boss Aidy Boothroyd is expected to make further changes so defender Phil Ifil, midfielders Simon Hackney and David Fox and striker Steven Gillespie could get chances.

Centre-halves Paul Reid and Pat Baldwin (both knee) are close to returning from long lay-offs but winger Ashley Vincent and striker Scott Vernon (both ankle) are still on the sidelines.
