 Buy one, get one a bit cheaper
Actually a lot cheaper – head for the CFU online store (click here) or the caravan on a matchday to profit from a discount price when buying the first two volumes of Celery & Coconuts. Celery & Coconuts: Volume I – Newmarket Road Roughs The Story of Abbey United and Cambridge United Football Club: 1912-1951 by Andrew Bennett Published by Lovely Bunch 2016 In the early years of the twentieth century, many residents of the Cambridge district of Barnwell had little going for them. It would take a long time for the poverty and squalor of the dense warren of housing, erected hurriedly during the Victorian industrial boom, to be alleviated. From 1912 onwards, they had something to lift their spirits: their own football club. Abbey United sprang up in the gloomy streets and on the bumpy commons of Barnwell. Sustained by the aid of the church, local benefactors and a steadfast band of devoted supporters, the club made rapid strides. As the 1950s dawned, it was contemplating the big time. Andrew Bennett’s meticulously researched and engagingly written Newmarket Road Roughs is the first volume in the Celery & Coconuts series, which will tell the entire history of Abbey/Cambridge United. This volume examines in depth the birth and early years of a club that would one day threaten to storm the Premier League stronghold. Celery & Coconuts: Volume II – Risen from the Dust The Story of Abbey United and Cambridge United Football Club: 1951-1970 by Andrew Bennett Paperback; 388 pages Published by Lovely Bunch 2017 In 1951, Cambridge United were a lowly United Counties League football club, although one with huge ambitions. As they prepared for their first season in the Eastern Counties League, they appointed their first full-time player-manager and looked towards the stars. Supporters and players alike rolled their sleeves up and started work on the rapid rise that in 1970 took them to their promised land: the Football League. Risen from the Dust, the second volume of Andrew Bennett’s brilliant Celery & Coconuts, the definitive history of an extraordinary club, takes readers on a breathtaking surge upwards through the leagues. Backed by painstaking research and Bennett’s eye for a story, Risen from the Dust reveals what can be achieved by a community determined to succeed. 
Several weeks ago we wanted to brighten up the Abbey Arms by adding some pennants to the area behind the bar.
We have now put them up and would like to thank everyone who donated them. See below the ones of significance that are Cambrdge United related and are now proudly hanging on show. 
The third volume of Andrew Bennett’s brilliant Celery & Coconuts history of Cambridge United, relating the incredible story of the 1970s, is available to order now.
With a foreword by star 70s striker Alan Biley, Champagne & Corona tells the tale of a revolutionary decade – one that saw the club continue its irresistible rise to claim a place in English football’s second tier. Written in Bennett’s distinctive, expressive style and containing more than 150 illustrations – as well as the vital statistics of an amazing ten-year upwards surge – it will merit a place on any football fan’s bookshelves. Champagne & Corona will be published in November by Lovely Bunch, the publishing offshoot of CFU heritage arm 100 Years of Coconuts, in good time for Christmas. Champagne & Corona: get your order in now Initial orders are being taken through the CFU online store and at the CFU caravan on a match day. Email 100 Years of Coconuts if you have any questions.

Please see below for a quick round-up of FSF news from August and September:
In 1955, avid Burnley FC supporter and son of a local barber, Bob Lord, rose to the position of Chairman of Burnley FC. The early days of his chairmanship oversaw the most successful period in the club’s history, seeing them become league winners in 1960 and FA Cup finalists in 1962.
Two years later, 1964 saw the first broadcast of Match of the Day, a weekly programme showing football highlights from across the league. A vocal critic of televised football, citing that it would “damage and undermine attendances” Lord not only banned the BBC cameras from Turf Moor for five years, he successfully convinced fellow league chairmen that televised matches on a Saturday afternoon would negatively impact the attendance and income of those clubs not televised. As a result of Lord’s actions, the broadcasting “blackout” was introduced. An agreement made by the governing bodies and leagues in English Football that no matches would be permitted to be televised live between 2:45pm and 5:15pm on a Saturday within the United Kingdom.

The weather has changed now and it has started to rain more frequently helping to keep the moisture levels of the pitch up to the correct levels. However even now with all the rain the importance and the need to water is still a necessity.
During the past few months during the hot summer and drought conditions getting water onto the pitch was a real task in itself and different actions had to be undertaken to ensure the pitch was stable and playable in time for when the matches begun. The grass is improving all the time as it becomes stronger See the pictures below. Not only were the sprinklers used but so were hosepipes in certain areas. While looking for ways to water the pitch it was even considered using the system that was used when Ian first joined the club. See the photograph below. The sprinkler had to moved around the pitch manually and took hours to completely water the whole area. There was only one Unfortunately, having found it we could not use it due to certain parts no longer working properly and having seized up 
Recently we asked what your favourite matches at the Abbey Stadium have been. Click here to see the original story
Through Facebook and Twitter we have received the following suggestions. If you have any further ones please add to the comments below - You can watch the matches against Bristol City, Sheffield Wednesday and Plymouth below. I couldn't resist adding one of the best goals scored at the Abbey Stadium during recent history Richard Nurse - For me the top 5 Abbey games I went to were 1) Beating Ipswich 1-0 in the League Cup with David Crown scoring in the rain on a Tuesday night. Even the main stand was singing and bouncing 2) 4-0 v Sheffield Wednesday in 1991 in the FA Cup after 100 tonnes of snow were shovelled off the pitch. Dion and Shaggy destroyed them. 3) Beating Halifax 2-0 to reach the play off final in 2014 thanks to 2 from Delano Sam Yorke. Only time I’d been on the pitch (apart from another game - weirdly also v Halifax - years earlier when there was a bomb scare) 4) The aforementioned first game back in the league with Josh Coulson (who else?!) scoring in front of the NRE. 5) The 0-0 v Man Utd. Mark Churchill - The infamous Mansfield game, 3-2 promotion decider, think it was 1973 Carl Ankers - Old ones for me - Oldham FA Cup 2-2 (1st Sunday) Newcastle 1-0 Atkinson last game Sandy Morley - Stevenage playoff semi. It didn't count for a lot in the end, but that was the best single game I've seen at the Abbey. Also Grays a couple of seasons before. Simpson brace, one a penalty. Don't remember much of it--not even certain it was Grays!--but that was my first game and I fell in love. Jane N Paul Grantham Bristol City 5-1. Sheffield Wednesday 4-0 fa cup. Millwall 1-0 fa cup. Man Utd 0-0. The best jointly the two play off wins at Wembley. Adam Haniver - 26th April 1994. We got beat 5-4 by Huddersfield. Despite the result, it still remains the best game of football I’ve ever seen. Scott McGeorge - Some great choices there just watched them all back, that Stevenage game makes my top five & still gives me goosebumps. My other four games would be the Bristol City 5-1 (FA Cup), Millwall 1-0(FA Cup,Thompson OG), Manchester United at Home(FA Cup 0-0) & the Wembley victory v Gateshead after nine years out of the the football league. Gary Dew Has to be the Mansfield game Wayne Cousins 1990-91 beating sheff weds in the 5th round of the FACup 4-0 Joel Kipling Some of the john beck era games were awesome , including the play off final Vernon Wombwell Cambridge United 1 Ipswich Town 0 (league cup). David Crown scored the winner goal Dudley Walton I just found this when looking for Sheff Weds match. Andy Cooper Yep Mansfield Town, for me too, ziggy stardust on the tannoy, monkey boots, scarves on the wrist, donkey jacket Penny Da Costa I went there with my brother once. Don’t remember who was playing just never forgotten that I was wearing a skirt and it was a very cold day. The occasion left me only with the memory of having very cold knees! Never felt the inclination to repeat the experience. Steve Teversham Kettering at home winning 3-0 Tony Butcher hatrick to win the southern league 69/70 ( i think) 6000 + attendance Paul Carwell One cold Wednesday night in 1967 or 1968, we played Hillingdon in a Southern League match, we won 5-0, Bud Houghton scored all five and I had found a new hero. Sid Barker When they played West Ham, in 1979 Roy Proctor - I have the programme for the 1979\1980. It was played on Friday the 21st. December1979 7.30 in the evening. Richard Gambie Chelsea Eugenie Heon - My dad took us once. It'd have been about 1965/67 and I've no idea who was playing ... I just remember standing on the grass at the edge behind a low fence. Roy Alan Ethridge My hero too was Bud But the Bristol game was great Alan Warren In my mind for sheer atmosphere it has to be the game v Bristol City FA Cup 5th Round 2nd Replay, 27 February 1990. Just look it up on you tube. Still sends shivers down my spine. Chaz Gray - And most disappointing V Crystal Palace at home .Quarter final .Totally gutted,different to the Quarter against Arsenal game as we expected to lose. If i remember the 1st replay 1-1 was a stonker as well. Clyde Welch Neither of those games had a replay Carol Wood - Spurs in cup Jason Mebbrey Aston Villa Roy Alan Ethridge Barnet was a great game in southern league too Ian Barton - Think I went with the school to see the all blacks play there in the 50's Rob Taylor Sheff Weds John McGivern - Crystal Palace in the Cup and only just lost to a toe poke from Jeff Thomas. Alan Mappledoram Chelsea back in the 70s friedly webb beneti osgood atkingson haris. Ian Hutchinson throwing into the goalmouth..and Peterborough in 74/75 end of season.?. ow yes hutchinson went to chelsea .i meet him when i worked at chelsea ground 1976 and all the team Duncan Stanley Any game where Coconuts is played and sounds excellent through Wembley sound system as well. Russell Unwin Mansfield wen the U's won 3-2 to win promotion to,the then,3rd division for the first time. Neil Haggart Sheffield weds 5th round Malcolm Holmes First floodlit game I think it was F A Cup may have been Dover about 1955/6 Derek Smiley for me got to be when we beat Mansfield was it 71/72 x Craig Red Withers v Mansfield to achieve promotion for the first time. Ronnie Walton scored a brace that day, my hero, he just lived around the corner from me! Mark Coulson I remember that game, 3-2 as I recall. Think you me and Shrubs were there. One of the biggest crowds in the U's history Craig Red Withers Absolutely right! First time I experienced a triumph as such! Ian Gurr I was at that game atmosphere was fantastic. Mark CoulsonCertainly was Ian, lots of Mansfield fans wandering around the edge of the pitch. One of the greatest games I have seen.
