Away Match Build Up 5/8/2023 L1: Cambridge United v OUFC

[Malc]

What a long summer that was!
But here we go again with a revitalized team and a lot of faith in LM

Win we win? Of course we will. I feel a 0-2 win for the mighty Yellows coming on,

What do you think

 

[holdsteady]

I am in Majorca for this, will I be able to pay a tenner and watch it on my phone as I am abroad on the hotel WiFi or does it not work like that?

 

[Victor1986]

I will also be there holdsteady. COYY!

Yep that should work

 

[bdodwell]

I'm staying in Cambridge so will be in the Town - and the best boozers are?

 

[Lost Marbles]

Cambridge Blue is an absolutely banging boozer. I'll probably head to the Green Dragon beer garden by the river if it's sunny though.

Where abouts?

Where abouts?

Check under the bed.

The team almost picks itself but I’m sure someone will have different ideas:

Beadle,
Long, Moore, Thorniley, Brown,
McEachran, Brannagan,
Goodrham, Rodrigues, Browne,
Harris.

Scorers: Rodrigues and Brannagan.
Score: 1-2 to the mighty Yellows!

I think we’ll keep a clean sheet.

Doesn't look like it will be. Current forecast is pissing it down.

 

[West Oxon U’s]

Cambridge have a very experienced centre-back partnership of Ryan Bennett and Michael Morrison.

Better steer clear of the curry houses then

 

[Grumpy Git]

Was Jack Stevens released or is he on loan to Cambridge?

 

[Foley]

Cambridge have a very experienced centre-back partnership of Ryan Bennett and Michael Morrison.

Morrison was 35 in March. Hopefully he struggles with the pace and high pressing of Harris, Rodriquez, Browne and Tyler!

Green Dragon for us.

Looking forward to this one! You can’t beat that new season optimism. I’ve never been to Cambridge, so wanting to get there fairly early to make a day of it. Does anyone have any pub recommendations?

Lived for three years in Cambridge roughly halfway between the station and the Abbey, and there were an absolute ton of cracking old man pubs in that part of town - the Devonshire Arms, Kingston Arms, Live and Let Live, Cambridge Blue, The Geldart.....

.....that being said, my knowledge is now more than a decade out of date, so no idea if any of these are still any good!

Ok great, I'll look to try and incorporate a few into my walk from the station to the ground! 'Old man pubs' are my favourite types, so it's nice to know there's a few good ones. I thought there would be to be honest.

Cheers!

 

[SteMerritt]

I went to 'The Eagle' when I was last in Cambridge, if you like RAF history then it's definitely the place to go.

Does anyone know if the supporters club at Cambridge let oxford fans in last season? My dad can’t walk far so will head there if they let us in
