For Town there are 2 exceptions to the above views and stats.  One good and one bad.

About 12 years ago we beat Cambridge 1-0 away in the league.   It was an excellent  performance by Town.  Anyone who was there will remember it.

Yes, the stronger team usually wins a cup replay when at home to a lower team.  Town were at home
To Salisbury in a FAC replay.  They were a division lower and part-time.  Despite taking the lead in extra-time, we still lost before penalties.  

As we have found in the last 2 or 3 weeks,  nothing is certain in football.

If I recall right we’ve won at the Abby a couple of times, 2014 & 2016 the latter Berret scored the winner bizarrely.

That night against Salisbury was Baltic. Even by BP standards it was cold, and I despaired when it went to extra time and we had to endure another 30 mins freezing our nuts off.

To lose as well was just torture.

I was at the Cambridge 0-1 in 2012. Coulson, frankie artus and Scott Garner, elding with the goal
Good atmosphere with about 400 Town fans on a cold Tuesday night
We finished mid table but I enjoyed most of the games I went to that year, which is unusual  
Come to think of it, I think it was mainly due to having a striker that terrorised defences
That and the fact we finally had a team that worked for their wages


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

It was also at Cambridge where Town ended a ridiculously long run of not winning an away game, in Slade's first season in 2004.  Macca scored the second in a 2-0 win I think.

But yeah, generally they've got a bit of a hold over us.

We've got a decent record there in recent times.

2020-21 lost, 2019-20 drew, 2018-19 lost, 2017-18 lost, 2016-17 won, 2013-14 won, 2011-12 won, 2010-11 drew.

So it's been poor in very recent years but priort that it was decent.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause
