    Good Point. Kyle Reid was probably disappointing statistically but he got us on the offensive very quickly.

    So match day, and I still haven’t got a clue on what the starting eleven will be. I’d like a 442, but struggling to guess positions all over the park. Right wing: Scanell. Up top: Vaughan and Donaldson. Centre mid: Palmer. Centre backs: Everton. The rest I honestly don’t know. Riley at right back maybe? Is Paudie fit? Who is our left back and left midfielder?

    Certainly looking forward to the team announcement!

    Think he will play a 4-2-3-1 formation: -

    O’Donnel

    Mellor - BRE - AOC - Longridge

    Palmer - Akpan

    Scannel - Doyle - Donaldson

    Vaughan

    City 4, Cambridge 1.

    I think there is a hint in today's T&A that Paudie might be involved today

    Welcome back PCX ...... Let's keep the positivism rolling !!!!
    City favourites to go up, and Cambridge equally so to drop down a league. WHAT could go wrong ? :*@ ...........:laughing:

    He was training yesterday so it makes sense, although the lad Everton looked fine especially in the arieal duels.

    His stats aren't anything to write home about.









    (probably score a hat trick today then)

    everyone seems to be expecting an easy win today going by the prediction league.

    Calderwood sorted Cambridge out last season and if anything they will frustrate and attempt to kill the crowd today.

    Expecting a win but think it will be close.

    Cambridge have had some decent results against league 1 opposition this preseason. They seem to be well organised at the back and as someone’s already said they will come to frustrate us and try grind out a result. We need to be on our game from the off and try score early and this might just open them up a bit. Enjoy the game everyone :)

    Not sure Akpan will feature this afternoon, Bronco said he wasn't at training yesterday so could be injured or (fingers crossed but unlikely) there's interest from another club.
