The Run-In Special Part 1

Jack Swindlehurst is in the hot seat this week as he questions regulars Jordan Worland, Tom Walker and Owen Kiernan on the first of a special series of podcasts looking at Cambridge United's run-in this season. Up for discussion are our games against Morecambe and Tranmere over Easter, plus Saturday's heavy defeat to Exeter. We also wonder just how many top agents are watching Jubril Okedina.

Welcome To Under The Paul Mullin Stand

Spirits are high this week as the UTAS boys get together to chat promotion, promotion, and promotion. There's heated discussion on which bits of the Abbey would be renamed if we had it our way, why Greg Taylor has been brilliant this season, and we ponder whether Paul Mullin is really Luis Suarez. Oh and, you guessed it, some more Wes Hoolahan loving. Get in touch with the pod! www.undertheabbeystand.com @AbbeyStandPod abbeystandpod@gmail.com This is a public episode.

The Good, The Bad and The Mullin

Promotion's on our minds, and it's been a few weeks of nerve-shredding action for U's fans to at least TRY and enjoy. To chat all that plus sharks and celebrations, Jordan Worland, Tom Walker and Owen Kiernan are put through their paces by host Julian Roberts, in another episode of Cambridge United's premiere podcast. Oh, and obviously some Mullin and Wes too. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.undertheabbeyst...

There's Snow Business Like January Transfer Window Business

Excuse the terrible pun; Jordan Worland, Tom Walker and Owen Kiernan put on their United hats, scarves and gloves to discuss our recent games against Colchester, Southend & Bradford, the departures of Harry Darling and Andrew Dallas and whether or not Rob Newman's 2005/06 team were any good.

The U's welcome in 2021 with two wins on the bounce, putting the UTAS boys and their negative ways to shame.

STOP THE COUNT

We've already won this league. By A LOT. Stand-in host Julian Roberts put UTAS regulars Jordan Worland, Owen Kiernan, and Tom Walker through their paces, in a week where United did their part by defeating fat ginger tyrants all over the world by putting Paul Scholes' Salford City to the sword on Tuesday night. The pod discussed our outstanding league form, our flat FA Cup defeat, Idris El Mizouni, Andy Dallas, and all your Twitter questions. Get in touch with the pod yourself: @AbbeyStandPod abb...

UTAS Extra: E I E I E I O

In the first of our new shorter, bitesize pods, we look over United's 2-1 victory over league leaders Newport.

The UTAS End of Season Awards

Well, that's it. League 2 is over for another season, this time prematurely, and while the virus has put the world to a stop, one thing it can't do is throw up any circumstances so bizarre and far-fetched that the U's can get into the play-offs. Probably as it should be. In our end of season show, we give out the best and worst awards of the season, and have a bit of a weird chat about rollercoasters. We'll be around over the summer with special bonus pods, and back next season for even more cla...

Lockdown lifting, a live sacking, and Ian Mather updates the U's

Covid 19, Calderwood 0

In the middle of the outbreak of a viral pandemic, UTAS decide now is the time to finally get back in the studio and spread their own brand of national fear and panic. Namely, just who is going to be taking the Cambridge United hotseat? The full UTAS squad also look back at the failed (and largely painful) Colin Calderwood regime, assess Mark Bonner's time as interim Head Coach, discuss why Tisdale won't bother commuting to East Anglia, and also some chat about goalkeepers and this insanely expe...

Home form? Completed it mate

We've never spoken about how bad Cambridge United's home form is. Never. So when high-flying Exeter City came to the Abbey, we had full confidence in a comfortable 4-0 victory. But is this drubbing just a plaster over the cracks? Are UTAS finally going to stop being so negative? And what is this xG thing?

Lambes to the slaughter and Calderwood's contract crunching

Cambridge United are back in business and inconsistency is the name of the game. From two fantastic away wins to another home slump, UTAS are here to dissect United's pitiful home form, a deserved or undeserved contract extension, and Reggie Lambe's advantages as a flying left wing-back (HINT: not a lot).

Black hole sighted at the Abbey Stadium

As the season draws to a close, UTAS are here to spread more "joy", "laughter" and "happiness". Sort of... It's fair to say it's been a season to forget, and our second to last show of the 2018/19 season takes a look at the U's 3-0 defeat at the hands of Newport County, the season run-in, and the small matter of the published finances.
