Football fans eh? We're a funny old lot. Whether it's spending thousands of pounds travelling around the country watching a team who can't buy a win, or clamouring for the return of rubbish former players for nostalgic value, or spending the past week whinging on twitter to anyone that will listen that it's unfair you've...

Bradford 1-0 U’s: The Nightmare Before Christmas
That revival didn't last long didn't it? Our 'blip' has now become a 'run', with just one win in our last seven league matches. All of a sudden, the summit looks so far away.

For a few years in the early 00's there used to be a guy who'd call into the Radio Cambs phone-in each Saturday with his assessment of the U's performance that week. Win, lose or draw, it was always the same, summed up in one word. Dire. I don't know if he still watches United... Continue Reading →
