Monotonous win despite fireworks above
The U's made 10 changes from the side that beat Chester in the FA Cup. A changed but still strong side for the U's as Brighton and Hove Albion U-21's put out a strong, aggressive and hungry side. The U's looked to dominate from the off. Gibbons' edge of the box effort was magnificently saved by the young seagull in between the sticks. The U's looked to continue to apply pressure with multiple brilliant crosses from Brazilian born McConnell. Bradshaw played a firm pass into Ka

On form U's to face promising Brighton & Hove U-21
The U's go into this Vertu Trophy game with a win against Chester in the FA Cup. As we wait for league action, the players will have their focus on a very promising Brighton & Hove U-21 side with bags of potential. The U's sit 3rd and 2 points away from progressing into the next round. A win gets the U's through but anything else will see the U's out of the competition. Despite it being a rather insignificant cup, getting good minutes into the young players and those who aren

U's comfortably book their ticket into round 2
With all the bookies and fans declaring the U's as the favourites it was vital that they ensured there would be no upsets in this magical competition. The U's introduced Smith, Bennett, Knight and others whilst also maintaining a strong 11 that wouldn't suffer a cup upset.

The greatest cup competition in the world returns to the Abbey
The U's return the FA cup with a home tie against Chester FC. The non league knocked out Morecambe in the 4th qualifying round. The U's are hoping for a comfortable victory to book a ticket into the 2nd round but the last time we faced a non league side in the competition we had to win through a penalty shootout. With no replays in the FA Cup anymore the same result is certainly on the cards. The U's will likely start with Kouassi and Kachunga through the middle as Lavery wil

Lavery injured, U's lose and no chances
The U's named an unchanged lineup from the side that beat Bromley at the Abbey last week. The U's started the game by sitting in a mid block. Lavery and Kouassi were pressing from the front with the assistance of Kaikai and Mayor. The U's never really got into the game with the ball at their feet. 30% possession throughout the opening 50 minutes. Gibbons came closest with a header from about 8 yards out that just went wide. It was a good move from the U's to set up the chance
