A surprising amount of off the ball niggling from Wanderers - including their forward picking a scrap with Lloyd Jones which is kind of unwise - is this usual?

Portsmouth away is a really tough one for the U's - our first five games are four against expected top 8 teams, plus champions-elect (trademark Devon_Lad) Exeter, so if we come away with any results from the Pompey and Charlton games I'll be pleased. Pigott will score against us - ex-U's ALWAYS...

As a neutral that Santos second yellow sending off looked harsh - I've seen a card given for that, sure, but I've also seen a lot of yellows not given, especially when the player is already on a yellow. I'd have been a bit pissed off if that had been one of our lads being sent off... We had an...

Ipswich v MK Dons should be a good game too - Ipswich to push on I suspect. And Plymouth v Peterborough will give Posh credentials more of a test - Plymouth are generally strong at Home Park. I'm looking forward to our game against champions-elect Exeter as well... :)

We (Cambridge) beat Cheltenham 5-0 away last season. So what? Cheltenham still had some cracking results against the bigger teams, stayed up comfortably and finishing only two points and one place below us. They had an off day against us, and we had a good day against them, that's all. Exeter...

U's starting with a deserved 1-0 win over MK Dons. We started with an eleven that didn't include any of our six new signings; I think that helped with our cohesion and organisation. We had some really good passages of play, especially in the first half, but what really pleased me was how solid...

Posh fans are too busy wanking off about their 'inevitable' promotion to slum it on here...

Tough call this year, but I would go for: 1. Wednesday 2. Peterborough 3. Wycombe 4. Ipswich 5. Portsmouth 6. Barnsley 21. Burton 22. Morecambe 23. FGR 24. Fleetwood Bristol Rovers, Exeter and Port Vale I think will stay up, but all will likely be bottom half. Shrewsbury will, I think, be...

Some statistics for you all: - Of the last 48 teams promoted into this division: 5 have been relegated straight away and one went bust 3 have been promoted straight away (Luton, Burton, Rotherham) 39 have remained in the division at the end of their first season - Of the last 44 teams...

Looking at the odds on relegation and promotion together there are some quite interesting anomalies: So the obvious stuff, Ipswich are favourites for promotion and longest odds for relegation; Morecambe are the equal least likely to get promoted and most likely to get relegated (not sure I...

They don't like anyone... they're the kid at school who acted like he was the dog's bollocks whilst being bang average at the few things he wasn't crap at...

Since Peterborough have so many friends in League One - Wycombe fans who endured endless bitter rants about snatching 'their' promotion, Cambridge fans who have put up with years of Borough being touted as a 'natural Championship club' trademark Radio Cambs, Darragh whatsisface, Ferguson Jr, etc...

We've still never lost to Ipswich Town in a league fixture... the mighty U's march on at Portman Rd.

Well this is utterly appalling - perhaps our worst performance of the season. I should have kept my mouth shut...

Peterborough are the most frequent proud holders of the League One Mid-table Championship over recent seasons - for some reason they seem to think this makes them a 'natural Championship club' (TM Barry Fry/Darren MacAnthony) :fl:

If I was Wednesday I wouldn't start by assuming Cambridge are easy pickings (to be fair, Barrieowl was rather more respectful) and I'm sure their management won't make that mistake - a big club, Sheffield Wednesday, and on that I have a soft spot for who really should be at least one division...

Sorry Northernsoul, that is not correct. Football creditors do not need to be paid in full - some clubs have not; however they get a larger points penalty from the EFL as a result. HMRC do not automatically get preferential creditor treatment - they need to be a 'controlling creditor', which...

You can get 7-1 against Cambridge winning at Rotherham; Rotherham are definitely strong favourites, but 7-1 sounds a tad generous to me...? Might have a small punt on that.

As a nerdy stat-keeper i keep a record of all the attendances by club - can anyone provide the attendances for AFC Wimbledon's game this season? As far as I can see only the Burton attendance (7,413) has been published...

Highly impressive performance from United given the number of fringe players on the pitch, players in unfamiliar positions and players who were forming new partnerships in almost every area of the pitch. The absolute worldie from Ben Worman is a thing of beauty, just sex on a football pitch...
