Looking for a heads up as I travel from outside the area for home games TIA I think so, best to exit A14 at Quy Or take the Milton exit and come through town? Personally, I'd do that, park up in Chesterton and walk across the river.

I travel in from J13 on A14 and have tried various routes to the Abbey and I have found parking at Pye terrace near the haymakers chesterton and walking across the green dragon Bridge is best for the ground (Going and leaving).......Martin

Be nice to welcome Jack back to the Abbey. Sure he will get a good applause as he was a quality player for us and good bloke in general.
It must be a touch strange though playing at a ground as an away player of a ground which has good memories for you.
Hopefully Iredale Snr will get to enjoy the game.
I'm going for a Cambridge win and Jack is Bolton's best player.

Howdy again folks. See you’ve signed a couple of good forwards including Bonne who we were linked with in the past and you got a great result on Saturday- things are looking up. We’re doing great overall, but not everything is going to plan. We’ve made a few signings including loanees, but it was a bit rushed as two more of our CBs were injured including captain Santos leaving us with stand ins at the back so Taylor had to be thrown in the day after he joined us. He did ok under the circumstances but playing out from the back we gifted Barnsley a bunch of chances and we were lucky to get away with a draw in the end. Hopefully the back 3 whoever plays will sort it out for tomorrow and not give you the game on a plate. Due to cup games and postponements we have 8 games to play in February so the whole squad is having to be utilised- difficult to guess who will start. It’s far from perfect scenario but we have faith and much as I like your club, I’d prefer it if you don’t turn us over tomorrow Should be a good game.)

Everygame we have lost has involved a football! Coincidence? We won on Saturday because I served all that morning's cups of tea in our household in Cambridge United mugs.

Stevens Gibbons Bennett Morrison Andrew Digby Cousins Lankester Kachunga Kaikai Taylor I'm not so sure, he's (as you might expect!), keeping his cards close to his chest: 'Bolton are one of the teams in the division that rarely divert from a three-in-defence system with wing-backs. In contrast, Harris has so far opted for a flat back four in his time at the United helm, although he would have no concerns about switching things up should it be required. You’ll have to wait until tomorrow night to see what we do but we’re certainly not afraid to change. I quite embrace the change at times, it’s good to challenge the players, he added. Bolton are a difficult side to play against in whatever system you play because they’re very good at finding solutions and they’ve got very good players for the level. Am I happy to change shape? I’ve got no qualms with changing for any given opponent or staying in a particular shape for a given period of time.' We will see!

If he'd spontaneously come out with that, I'd agree, but it's come from being explicitly asked the question.
We'll see of course but I'd be surprised, especially seeing as it's not a formation he's seemingly played anywhere else.
