Enjoyed that today. We played some excellent football first half. Sat a bit too deep as the game went on but picked up the 3pts. Good atmosphere too.

Nice one, how many times have we had that this season? Reckon you would be quids in if you put a bet that score every game.

Pleased to see us ending the season with a few goals a couple of wins and decent momentum ente close season 8n good spirit to come back and make it really happen next year.
Would have readily taken this season last August

Would be good to finish in the top 10, obviously a huge improvement and gives the club a realistic aim of playoffs next year.

Great to see us finishing strongly. Like County Ranger i’m now happy with the way the last few weeks have gone. Q Supporter.

Thanks Neil. That more than paid for my ticket. Thought in the first 20 mins we were excellent and moved the ball around brilliantly. Then Cambridge came back a bit. Still think we deserved the 1-0 ht lead though.

Have to say, apart from the goal big Frank' touch is pretty bad. Great goal though. Why oh why do we sit back on a good lead. I think most people knew their goal was coming.

I think if it wasn't for the heroics of Micky D we may have only drawn that one. He was superb, far too good for this league. Thought Ben White had an average last home game.

Thought their number 8 was a right pain in the backside. Kept harassing our back line all afternoon. Thought there was a law against that!

agree about their no 8....imagine a front line of Amond and him,,,He is on loan to them from Northampton so may be available ??

Good to see Frank on the score sheet again if not for his own confidence, but too little too late for me. Coincidence that he has got 2 in 2 with the end of his contract looming? His career has mirrored this - potential there but just no consistency and application. His touch is poor and he can't head the ball - shame really.

He started the season on fire and is finishing it strong.Unfortunately,he was woeful in the middle.

Good performance much better in the first half where we took the game to Cambridge by being busier and more proactive. Liked the movement off the ball and quick passing. We used both flanks to great effect creating a lot of chances in the box. Every player played their part. I thought Days distribution was varied instead of the usual hoof ball up the pitch.
Second half when we scored the second decided to sit back and let Cambridge take the initiative which they nearly did. We lacked the competiveness in midfield as the game went on allowing much more space and time for Cambridge to exploit.
Stand out players both halves were Butler, Demetriou and Amond those three never stopped running. closing and pressing.
Nouble had an impressive first 45 mins. and second half goal but it stands out more when he has been found missing much of the season. New contract ? No imho. Too little too late ? Yes !

Exactly! Three goals in the first home match against a woeful Chesterfield, two goals in the last week, and only 5 goals in the eight months in between. Not good enough.

Nice few quid for you there pembs.
Now first half I thought their number 8 was awful, just chased lost balls like a headless chicken and had a terrible first touch. He certainly improved second half.

It's worse than that.He scored two before Chesterfield in his purple patch.So it's only 3 goals in eight months,and two of those were really og's.
