Cambridge United returned to League One action for the first time in a fortnight on Saturday and continued their outstanding start to the campaign with another victory as they saw off Blackpool 1-0.
Of the four teams promoted to the division last season the U’s are the only ones not currently down in the relegation zone. They’re flying high in fifth, three points off leaders Plymouth with a game in hand and one of only four teams to have been beaten just once thus far.
There were a few notable new additions at the weekend. United sported a one-off fourth kit inspired by Pink Floyd’s Syd Barrett in aid of World Mental Health Day, and BBC Radio Cambridgeshire handed a debut to UTAS frontman Julian Roberts as summariser.
He was promptly thrown the hospital pass of needing to fill 15 minutes of air time when kickoff was delayed until 3.15 but produced a performance that drew glowing reviews (although saying so may raise questions about whether he added in this bit of the article himself during the editing stage).
