The Preview Show: Crewe (A)

The Retained List Review

It’s only a few sleeps ago we confirmed promotion back to League One at Crewe, but football never stops. Just as quickly, United have released the 25/26 retained list, saying goodbye to a host of faces who were crucial in securing our instant return to the third tier. Caspell, Jules and Swindle go over the list and talk about their favourite memories of our departing players, while also casting their eye over how the squad is starting to shape up for next season.

Proper Geezers

We did it. At the first time of asking, Cambridge United have been promoted back to League One. And we did it in the nerviest way possible, drawing 0-0 at Crewe and waiting for a few agonising minutes as Salford couldn’t find the winner at Crawley that would leapfrog us. Join Matt, Tom and Jules as they relive the whole day, from pre-match nerves, a world famous beer garden, to the missed penalty, a feeling that all hope had gone, and then that moment that it was all confirmed. What a day and what a season.

The Preview Show: Crewe (A)

Well, this is it everyone. Do or die (well, do or play-offs, I guess, but that’s less catchy). We know the equation: win and we’re up. It really is as simple as that… but when is football ever that simple? Matt and Jules are the nervy duo on the Preview Show which this week is an actual Thursday show, and it’s a bumper record featuring some press conference shame, guest voice notes, and an opposition preview thanks to the Railwaymen Pod. Keep those nerves at bay for a few more days, come on United!

Put The Smirnoff Ice On Ice

It was, thankfully, a comfortable afternoon on Saturday. A 3-0 win in the glorious April sunshine at the Abbey that sent Barrow to the foot of the 92, and kept our fate on final day in our own hands. A win at Crewe and we’re back in League One at the first time of asking, anything else and we’ll be looking at our phones as Salford and Notts County are hot on our heels. Jord, Caspell and Tom are on for what is hopefully the second to last review show of the season looking back at Saturday afternoon.

The Preview Show: Barrow (H)

This week has not gone to plan. A Tuesday night loss against Grimsby in our game in hand followed by Salford taking all three points against Bromley on Thursday means the promotion race will go to the final day. To keep it in our hands, we just need to beat a relegation-threatened Barrow on Saturday… it’s as simple as that. Matt and Jules are on to reflect on the run-in, chat what went wrong against Grimsby and preview the Barrow game with the help of the Give Em Beans podcast.
