This is gonna be a tough test, I think some are thinking it’s an easy 3 points , it really isn’t and I hope we’re at it from the whistle. . That said i this team always have you believing they can win Enjoy everyone 👍🏾 I've been a gashead too long to think any game will be an easy one. Borehamwood at home was the easiest fixture so far on paper and look how that turned out

Could be a bit of a battle in horrible conditions today. The arrival of 2 new players will boost Cambridge and if Gibson is out that would dampen my optimism Still think we’ll come back with a hard fought 2-1 win. Goals being shared for once (Sinclair and Anderson) BBC has rain forecast to stop by 1pm (and a few on the coach are having baked beans at the services) so hopefully only a bit of wind to contend with

It's going to be a tough game and we'll need to be at our best for 90+ minutes to return with the points.
As others have pointed out, Cambridge don't concede many goals at home. It's a tight pitch and both Plymouth and Bolton were held to 0-0 draws. That's a Plymouth side who are top of the table and the 2nd highest scorers away from home in L1.
They won their last home match, coming from behind to beat Shrewsbury, and drew the previous home game 0-0 with Plymouth; so their recent home form is decent.
We were slightly fortunate to beat them 2-1 at the Mem. They had 62% possession that day and 18 shots to our 15.
Like most games at this level, it could go either way. I just hope we can perform as we know we can for the entire match and that's enough to get the win.

All i know is the more goals Rovers score the harder it will be for Cambridge united to get a result.
So fingers crossed we score a few today.

Arrived crazy early half 11, steward let us in the ground for a quick nose around which was nice. Got a pint in the very welcoming supporters bar, top man Bill sat on the door showing us through.
Sat down for 2mins and some old boy came in (their SLO) and offered myself, my mate and his boy a full ground tour. Down the tunnel, in the dugout, the lot.
Might not be much to some but what a welcome, gobsmacked at the hospitality shown for just 3 away fans turning up ridiculously early.
My 70th ground and definitely the friendliest club I’ve visited (to date)

Bit early for the Cockburns isn't it? Reverse psychology And never too early for a glass of the old ruby nectar. COYB!

A few have mentioned the narrow pitch but this might not be as big an issue for us as other visiting teams. A lot of our goals come through the centre with Collins or Finley finding the smallest spaces for the killer ball
