*Coconuts Appeal*

Do you have connections with any of these families who lived in the Barnwell area of Cambridge before and during World War I? Bilton, Blunt, Bull, Cash, Codling, Cook, Coulson, Deards, Franklin, Furniss, Golding, Hancock, Maltby, Mathews, Newman, Patman, Sainty or Saintey, Smith, Thurston, Wilderspin, Whybrow.

100 Years of Coconuts (the heritage bit of Cambridge United supporters’ trust CFU) is trying to find out what became of the young men who played for Abbey United in 1913/14. It’s part of a research project examining everyday lives in working-class east Cambridge during the Great War.

Trouble is, we haven’t got any first names to go with those family names, and only two initials (H Cash and G Smith). Tracking these people down ain’t easy.

We would love to hear from you if you’re related to, or have other connections to, any of those names.
Even better if there are stories in your family about an ancestor playing for Abbey.

If you could post on here or email 100yearsofcoconuts@gmail.com, we would love to hear from you. Many thanks.
The photos: women workers at the Newmarket Road gasworks during the war (thanks to the Cambridgeshire Collection) and 11th Battalion Suffolk Regiment recruits at Melbourn Place School in 1914 (thanks to curme.co.uk).

 Anwar Uddin – Lead on the Fans for Diversity Campaign interview

Anwar Uddin has vast experience of equality and football. During his 13-year playing career for the likes of West Ham United, Bristol Rovers and Dagenham & Redbridge, he became one of the most high-profile Asian footballers in British football.

Following his career, Anwar has used the knowledge gained from the game to share messages of equality and inclusion through efforts with Show Racism the Red Card and currently with Kick It Out and the Football Supporters’ Federation as lead on their joint Fans For Diversity campaign.

We spoke to Anwar about Fans For Diversity and how SRtRC, Kick It Out and the Football Supporters’ Federation are proactively campaigning for equality in the sport.

Statto Corner --- v Morecambe

27/8/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
Satto Corner

United have now kept two consecutive clean sheets in the League. They managed that feat only twice all of last season: in January (Notts County home, 4-0, and Blackpool home, 0-0) and March (Cheltenham away, 1-0, and Stevenage home. 0-0).

Jevani Brown is the fourteenth United player of that surname in the club’s history. His predecessors were Sid from the 1920s, while the Thirties saw two Bobs, plus the enigmatic C, CO and W (reportage was not big on first names in those days). The Forties introduced Eric, WH and Neville, then there was a large gap until the more recent Mick (1968-69), Danny (2006-08), Simon (2009-11) and Jason (2013-14).

Unsurprisingly, Smith is the most popular surname in United’s history with 19 entries, followed by the Browns, then Taylor (12), Wilson (12), Johnson (11), Robinson (11) and Walker (10).

Today’s attendance of 3,573 is the first ever recorded instance of that number for a crowd at a United game. The nearest previously was 3,574, for a home Southern League game against Margate on 1 May 1968, which the U’s won 4-1 thanks to goals from Ian Hutchinson (2), Billy Wall and Alan O’Neill.

That figure was also recorded on 10 December 2002 at Kenilworth Road, Luton, when United won a LDV Vans Trophy Area Quarter-Final 2-1 on an extra-time golden goal from Luke Guttridge on a freezing sub-zero night. Tony Thorpe had given the Hatters an early lead, but Terry Fleming equalised just before the hour.

United team: Marshall, Tann, Jordan, Duncan, Angus, Guttridge, Tudor (Nacca), Youngs, Riza, Bridges (Chillingworth), Fleming.
Luton team: Ovendale, Boyce, Hillier, Coyne, Davis (Kimble), Robinson, Spring, Hughes, Brkovic, Thorpe (Fotiadis), Crowe (Holmes).

Player Ratings
Forde 7. Little to do.
Halliday 8. So good to have the best right-back in the division playing again.
Legge 7. Solid effort.
Taylor 7. Stuck to his task.
Dunk 7. Good attacking support.
Deegan 9. The fulcrum.
Elito 6. The usual curate’s egg.
Brown 9. As assured a League debut as one could ever wish to see.
Maris 8. Bundle of energy.
Azeez 7. Fine movement, but woeful finishing.
Ikpeazu 8. Led the line with his usual twinkle-toed power.

Mingoia 6. The odd decent cross.
Osadebe 6. Fairly quiet League debut.
Ibehre 6. Unable to make much of an impact.

Match Summary
United responded to Luke Berry’s departure and criticism of their dour style of play with a vastly improved display of open attacking football which entertained the Cambridge masses but just lacked that vital quality in the final third. Something to build on, at least.

Man of the Match
Gary Deegan. Ran the engine room with authority and pinpoint passing.

Ref Watch
Horwood 5. Awarded far too many soft free-kicks to tumbling Morecambe players and against a mostly innocent Ikpeazu.

If you prefer one posted use the contact form below. We will contact you back with details, postal costs and arrangements.

See link for shop opening times www.cambridge-united.co.uk/club/opening-hours

Programme Preview:
The former Republic of Ireland international successfully kept more clean sheets than any other goalkeeper in Sky Bet League Two during his time with Portsmouth last season, and achieved his first shutout for the U’s last weekend.

Forde states the clean sheet is what keeps him motivated every time he pulls on the jersey for the Club and is hoping for many more to follow.

He said: “I really do pride myself on making clean sheets, so I was immensely proud to get my first at Crawley.
“I go out every game looking to achieve them, and it really is a minimum requirement for me. Working hard to get a clean sheet is what gives me my drive and determination every time that I step out on to the football pitch.

“I thrive on achieving them and it gives the team a platform and a confidence to potentially win more games than we’ll lose. If we can manage to put together a number of clean sheets this season, then you are always going to be there or thereabouts.”

We are looking to set up a group for those retired adults to meet up one day a week for example Mondays to complete all the task needed to be done.

If you have retired, please contact me Dave Matthew-Jones dave.matthew-jones@cambridge-united.co.uk

AJ Habbin Statto Corner

Statto Corner

Until this season, United had not lost both of their first two league matches since the 1994-95 season, when they were defeated 3-0 at Wycombe then lost 4-3 at home to Stockport. They also lost their third game, 1-0 at Oxford, and in between those matches lost both legs of their first round Coca-Cola Cup tie to Portsmouth, 2-0 away and 3-2 at home. At the end of the season they finished 20th in Division Two but were relegated to Division Three because of a League reorganisation.

Medy Elito has now taken three league penalties for United and converted every one…and all of them have been against Carlisle. Only eight players have scored more penalties for the U’s while also boasting a 100% record from the spot: Danny Crow (7), Steve Massey (7), Scott Rendell (6), Michael Cheetham (5), Frank Lock (5), Lee McEvilly (4), Paul Wilson (4) and Bill Cassidy (4). David Crown, Robbie Cooke and Roy McDonough join Elito on three.
Before today United had been unbeaten against Carlisle in the last six seasons in which they have occupied the same division. They last lost to the Cumbrians in the 1996-97 season, 3-1 at home (John Taylor scoring for the U’s) and 3-0 at Brunton Park.

Jevani Brown has become the 30th player to be allocated United squad number 20, the most popular number since they were introduced in 1999. The previous incumbents were: Larry McAvoy, Steve Guinan, Jonathan Hunt, John Dreyer, Des Byrne, Chris Allen, Shane Tudor, Jonathan Heathcote, Neil McCafferty, Ashley Nicholls, Dan Gleeson, Mbiyeye Medine, Shane Herbert, Luke McShane, Alex McCarthy, Felino Jardim, Adam Bartlett, Sam Ives, Jordan Patrick, Jonathon Thorpe, Luke Allen, Sam Smith, Issa Diallo, Cameron McGeehan, Matt Harrold, Jordan Chiedozie, Karlan Ahearne-Grant, Zeli Ismail and Max Clark.

Player Ratings
Forde 8. Reassuring presence at the back, no chance with the goals.
Davies 6. Decent game and learning all the time.
Legge 6. Still a mighty warrior, but was really exposed for pace in the first half.
Taylor 7. Another solid performance.
Carroll 6. Gradually improving, useful when assisting the attack.
Elito 6. Flitted in and out of the game, but at least we’ve found a penalty taker.
Deegan 7. Kept the traffic flowing.
O’Neil 6. Needs to do more; the team does not need two holding midfielders at home.
Berry 7. Made a decent contribution considering he was played way out of position for much of the game.
Ikpeazu 8. Barnstorming display, unplayable at his best.
Ibehre 7. Looked dangerous at times and linked promisingly with Ikpeazu. Goals will come.
Dunk 7. Lively cameo from the bench.

Mingoia 6. Seemed to have forgotten his laser-guided crossing boots today.
Azeez 5. Late sub made minimal impression.

Match Summary
United sank to a disappointing defeat despite enjoying substantial possession in a performance which raised more questions than answers.

Man of the Match
David Forde. Safe hands and a string of fine saves.

Ref Watch
Nield 6. A bit random with the cards, otherwise no complaints.

Soundtrack of the Day
Susanne Sundfor & John Grant “Mountaineers”

MATCH DAY CATERING | REFURBISHED MARVIN’S, BEER DEALS AND SOUTH AFRICAN CUISINE!

11/8/2017

0 Comments

 
Picture
With the Amber Army set to return to the Cambs Glass Stadium for the opening clash of the 2017/18 season tomorrow, the Club are excited to offer supporters a range of new food and drink options to improve the U’s match day experience.

If you are looking for a place to enjoy a pre-match drink and some grub, then the newly refurbished Marvin’s Bar accompanied with its beer garden is the perfect spot!

In partnership with Brewery partners Greene King, East Coast IPA will be available from Marvin’s for a discounted rate of just £2.50 a pint! The bar also offers a range alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, and other refreshments to keep supporters young and old catered for.

“Both the South African and Jamaican culture is about colourful vibrancy, welcoming warmth and delicious yummy food. We both love to entertain, socialize and treat our family and friends with delicious homemade authentic food. On many occasions, we were asked whether we would consider doing catering for events or even start our own business. That is how Kerief Catering was born.

We started trading as Kerief Catering in February 2017, serving delicious Dutch Poffertjes. Our Poffertjes have been very well received and we already have a permanent space at The Cambridge Market on a Thursday.

Starting small with our delicious Dutch Poffertjes, we are now ready to extend to include fresh, vibrant and delicious South African and Jamaican flavours. We will of course still have our Poffertjes for those who need their little sweet treat.”

The Club have internalised aspects of our match day catering as we look to improve the experience for supporters attending the Cambs Glass Stadium.

As part of this, beer prices have been reduced by an average of 10% across the Cambs Glass Stadium, in partnership with Greene King.

Supporters are also able to continue using the Dion Dublin Bar which as always offers a cash bar facility.

Alongside the Tea Bars available in all areas of the ground, the Club has also added mobile units to reduce the queue times, improve quality, and increase the food and drink options available for the Amber Army. This season an additional mobile unit will be located at the rear of the Newmarket Road End.

The Club welcomes all feedback from supporters on how we can improve our match day offering, and encourages fans to send any ideas to fanideas@cambridge-united.co.uk.​
