    FA Cup 2024/25

    Weird that there is not one single tie involving two League One clubs - I’d work out the odds against that if I could be arsed but it’s pretty high…

    Sat 26th/Mon 28th Oct Fixtures

    Being Cambridge, I am fully expecting us to follow up two really excellent performances by rolling over like a puppy for Burton, especially since they just sacked their manager…

    Tuesday 22 October fixtures

    No wins in 201 days then two in four days, both well deserved. We are a better team than 23rd place implies...

    Sky tv affect on Tuesday attendances

    Cambridge average loss of home attendance on Tuesday v Saturday for the last few years has been 12%, unless it clashes with Champions League in which case it is nearer 18%.

    Good, we need all the help that we can get. Your third choice keeper will, no doubt, now play a blinder…

    31 August fixtures

    We’re creating quite a few chances but our defending is diabolical, whether we play three or four at the back - the players are not coping with the change in approach from banging it long to playing it out, and the lack of any fit senior strikers besides Lavery means that the direct approach is...

    24 August fixtures

    It really depends whether our front players get the memo that they are meant to put the ball INTO the bloody net - lots of chances created in the last two games (QPR and Crawley) only one converted, and that a goalkeeping howler...

    League One 1-24 prediction 24-25

    One of the relegated teams will finish outside the play-offs (I'm guessing Huddersfield), one of the promoted teams will get relegated (Crawley look the obvious choice), one of the second-season teams will get relegated (Northampton look least safe) and one 'major' team will struggle (Barnsley...

    League One 1-24 prediction 24-25

    Here are some stats that might be interesting, covering the last 20 seasons: First, how well do relegated teams do? - of sixty teams relegated into League One, 12 have been automatically promoted in their first season - fourteen more have made the play-offs in their first season, but only...

    Season Tickets 2024/25

    2,700 renewals (85% renewal rate) - now going on general sale; hoping for 3,500 versus 3,100 last season.

    Stickied League One Away Support Thread 2024/25

    I’d guess at 950 away capacity (down from 1,475) with home capacity increased from the current 6,475 to about 6,850. This season home seating sold out almost every game whereas there were always unsold terrace tickets, even for the derby against the Pish, so swapping 1,100 home terrace for...

    The mid-table thread

    Cambridge here - now we are level on points with Reading and with a game in hand, can we transfer over from the Relegation Dogfight club please?

    1st/2nd April Fixtures

    Big game for the mighty U's today again v Wigan; win this and we are nearly safe, lose it and it will be much tighter, as I fully expect one or more of Vale, Cheltenham and Burton to get points today (Exeter and Cobblers are safe and may be relaxing on the beach, and Barnsley are totally lacking...

    I’d bite your hand off for a dull 0-0!
