Very disappointing, thought we were on top for the first 30 minutes but we've completely lost it now. They're all over us and heads have gone down.

[Keith]

Another good strike, but we fell apart once they went 0-2

[Redalert1970]

Lavelle on the bench mmmm very interesting

[redrobo]

They are onto our defenders quicker than us. They are putting pressure on our back line all the time whilst we don't play high enough.

No way will we get back into this game if we continue to play like we are doing.

[Redalert1970]

We need a striker ... If Stockton and Aj are both out for a while

[jbc.shrimp]

Seem to remember the same score line some years ago. Came back to win 4-3 !

[paschahound]

This is mightily disappointing. Team balance is not right today.

[HALMA 1983]

Should have started with the same team and that includes the keeper

[Redalert1970]

Cambridge have had 12 attempts (5 on target)

Morecambe have had 3 attempts (1 on target)

[tim-sanchez]

Decent 30 minutes followed up by a woeful 15. We really struggle to create clear chances, our best chance by far was the header from a corner.

[CityShrimp]

The half time stats tell a story - we have had more possession but they’ve had a better pass completion rate, more key passes, and of course more goals.

[Keith]

A 'game of two halves'?

That was a half of two halves. First twenty minutes we were at least equal to Cambridge, possibly even shading it. A couple of half chances for us that we didn't take and playing some nice football.

Last twenty minutes we looked like we'd never met each other before.

Heads have dropped. Derek needs to pick them back up and come out for the second period with all guns blazing.

Homemade chicken baltic pie to look forward to. Not sure I'm looking forward to the second half.

[HALMA 1983]

getting blown away, if ever an early goal was needed this is the time.

Well that's a new one. Chicken and herring?

[JTW]

Let’s hope the wind picks up in the second 45.

[marky No.1]

Full backs gone, at least we are trying, rather than leave it till the 75th minute

[Redalert1970]

Very very worrying this

This could end up 5 / 6 / 7

[tim-sanchez]

This is a crash back down to earth after a great start to the season

[Keith]

Oh dear.

Not in this at all. If it was a boxing match it would have been stopped by now.

[paschahound]

Maybe not such a bad move after all to decide not to open the stadium to season ticket holders today
.

[tim-sanchez]

Getting a bit desperate now, we need to show a bit of pride. Toums with a stupid slide tackle that could easily have been a red, CMG with a dive. The last thing we need after this is a suspension to go with it.

[Redalert1970]

This is getting very very very embarrassing now

Cambridge have had 19 attempts in 64 minutes

[Bristol Shrimp]

As much as we haven't helped ourselves, Cambridge do look a very good side. Think I'll go see if I can go and see some turtles!

[MFC-Manc]

The board knew we would get hammered..... that’s why they didn’t let fans in.

[redrobo]

Wonder how many cups DA will smash post match....you can bet he will blow his top and quite rightly so.
