Formation and early years

The club was founded in 1912 as Abbey United (named after the Abbey district of Cambridge in which they play); although a club called Cambridge United existed in Cambridge from 1909, it was not linked to the club that exists today.[3] The club played in local amateur leagues, with some success, for many of its early years, moving from ground to ground around Cambridge (see Stadium below) before settling at the Abbey Stadium. In 1949 the club turned professional, and changed its name to Cambridge United in 1951.[3] They played in the Eastern Counties League until finishing as runners-up in 1957–58, which saw them promoted to the Southern League. Three years later, Cambridge United reached the Premier Division of the Southern League. Cambridge United Football Club are a professional football club from Cambridge, England. ...

League era

After election to the Football League in 1970, to replace Bradford (Park Avenue), the club enjoyed mixed success. Although it reached 10th place in the Second Division in 1981, the club was relegated in 1984 (setting a league record for most games without a win, 33) and 1985 (equalling the league record for most losses in a season, 26). These successive relegations placed the club back in the Fourth Division, the lowest professional league in English football at the time.

The early 1990s heralded a brighter era for the U's, however, as with John Beck in charge the club won the first ever play-off final at Wembley Stadium before reaching two successive FA Cup quarterfinals in 1990 and 1991. Despite reaching the play-offs in 1992 after finishing 5th in Division Two (the club's highest league placing), they failed in their bid to become founder members of the Premier League.[3] The club's decline throughout the remainder of the decade resulted in, after a brief promotion between 1999 and 2002, the loss of the club's league status in 2005. This brought with it financial difficulties and the club filed for administration on 29 April. On 22 July 2005 the club came out of administration with a deal being struck with HM Revenue and Customs at the eleventh hour after the intervention of then sports minister Richard Caborn. Cambridge had sold their Abbey Stadium home earlier in the season for £1.9 million; although they lost control of the ground - the money was essential in keeping the club afloat.[4] John Alexander Beck (born Edmonton, London May 25, 1954) is a former British footballer and manager. ...

Recent history

On the eve of the 2006–07 season, it was announced that former Norwich City striker Lee Power would be the club's new chairman taking over from Brian Attmore's caretaking reign. Jonny Hon was also to rejoin the board as vice-chairman after John Howard's resignation on conflict of interests grounds (owing to his ownership of Bideawhile 445 Ltd, United's landlords).[5] Jimmy Quinn was appointed manager soon after Power took charge and, after a difficult settling-in period which included a humiliating 5-0 loss to local village team Histon, he guided Cambridge away from another possible relegation by achieving five wins from their last seven games of the season.[6] [3] The new Wembley Stadium was completed in time for the 2006-07 seasons FA Cup Final. ...

The club's first shirt (between 1924–25)[2]

Cambridge have traditionally worn amber and black home kits in a variety of designs, including plain amber with black trim (e.g. 1979–91), amber and black quarters (1996–98 and halves (e.g. 1924–25), and a variety of stripes (e.g. 1926–36.[2] Only between 1957–60 and 1970–72 have shirts not been predominantly amber, when the club opted for white with a small amber and black detail on the shirt's sleeves. Away from home, kits have often been white with some amber and/or black detail, although recently shirts have been royal blue at the request of the away shirts sponsors, Kershaw.[11] Image File history File links left arm of kit template File history Legend: (cur) = this is the current file, (del) = delete this old version, (rev) = revert to this old version. ... kit_body. ... rightarm of kit template File links The following pages link to this file: Arsenal F.C.

Stadium

The Abbey Stadium’s Main Stand
The Abbey Stadium’s Main Stand
Cambridge United currently play their home matches at the Abbey Stadium in Cambridge, which has been their home since 1932. Before opening the Abbey with a victory over Cambridge University Press in a friendly on 31 August 1932, Cambridge had played matches at a number of venues around the city.[13] When playing under the Abbey United name, games were played on Midsummer Common until the outbreak of the First World War. When the war ended, the club moved to Stourbridge Common and, after promotion to the Cambridgeshire League Division One in 1923, moved once again to land just off Newmarket Road in Cambridge. This ground, affectionately known as the 'Celery Trenches' due to the poor state of the pitch, was christened with a 1-0 league victory over Histon Institute and became United's home for nearly a decade. While based at the Trenches, the club established its offices at the 'Dog & Pheasant' pub on Newmarket Road, which it used as an away dressing room on matchdays, as well as a store for equipment including the pitch's goalposts.[13] However, the Cambridgeshire FA were unhappy with the state of the pitch at this new home, and the club moved to Parker's Piece at the start of the 1930–31 season. Despite the special significance of Parker's Piece in the history of football, it being the first place where the Cambridge Rules were played out, the lack of spectator capacity and disruption caused during games meant this move was not a successful one.[14]

Henry Francis, then president of the club, offered United a lifeline in 1931 when he donated land he had acquired to the club, and erected a grandstand and changing rooms on it. This land, where United have been resident since, was close to the Celery Trenches where, with the approval of the Cambridgeshire FA, the club played while the new ground was being prepared.[13] The first match at the newly constructed Abbey (though it was not known as this until 1961) was played with no grandstand, which would not be opened until March 1934, and subsequent stands were constructed between a period of many years up until 1954 when the final terrace, on the west of the ground (now the 'Habbin Stand'), was completed.[13] The Main Stand of the Abbey Stadium The Abbey Stadium, in Cambridge, England, is a football stadium. ...

Much redevelopment has occurred since including the redevelopment of the main stand to include a roof and extra seating and, most recently, the erection of a new all-seated stand at the south of the ground to replace the original open terrace that had stood there since 1966. Despite planning permission being granted for further development, as part of the same scheme, at the north end of the ground (including an 86-bedroom hotel, retail space, new offices and a new supporters club), financial difficulties meant this has yet to be entered into.[15]


These same financial difficulties meant the Abbey Stadium land, donated to the club by Henry Francis in 1931, was sold to then director John Howard's company Bideawhile 445 Ltd in December 2004.[4] Although the club confirmed in January 2006 it had "reached an agreement in principle" to buy back the ground, this has not yet happened, but is seen as crucial in safeguarding its long term financial security.[13] Also in January 2006, John Howard announced plans to move out of the Abbey Stadium to a new purpose built stadium in Milton.[16] These were criticised by fans as risking the club's identity by moving out of the city and, despite Howard describing them as crucial to the club's future, little else has been heard of them since.

Supporters

Cambridge United have a number of supporters' groups and associations, some of which are independently run and some are run by the club itself.[17] These include:

  • Away Travel Club: Officially linked with the club and provides match day travel to every away game, as well as hosting various fundraising events particularly for the youth system and sponsoring senior and youth players.[18]
  • Junior U's: A club initiative to promote active support among younger fans - membership is free and includes benefits such as reduced admission to league games and a free Christmas party.[19] The Junior U's fan club is promoted by club mascot Marvin the Moose.[20]
  • Cambridge Fans United: An independent supporters group but now a significant shareholder in the club with representation (on the fans' behalf) on the board of directors.[21]
  • Vice Presidents Club: Club offering match day hospitality including dedicated seats in the stadium and pre-game meals.[17]

In addition to these supporters' groups, the club currently has one independent fanzine, United in Endeavour, which raises funds for Cambridge Fans United and is sold at home games.

Cambridge fans in full voice (April 2007)
Cambridge fans have a reputation as vociferous and loyal, although home attendances were below average towards the end of its stay in the Football League.[22] Since relegation to the Conference, however, attendances at the Abbey have been amongst the highest in the league. Cambridge's first two seasons in this league saw them post the 4th highest average attendance figures in both years (2,607 in 2005–06 and 2,815 in 2006–07).[23] [24] Traditionally, Cambridge have had Peterborough United as their main rivals rather than closer neighbours Cambridge City, something that was recognised in a survey by the Football Fans Census as a reciprocated feeling.[25] Other rivalries include those with Northampton and Rushden and Diamonds (due to geographical proximity), Brentford (due to sporting rivalry during the 1990s) and local team Histon who were promoted to the Conference National for the 2007–08 season after a rapid rise through non-league football.[26]

However, this ceased following financial difficulties which meant the club could not guarantee being able to put out a team for every game.
