Player information

I have made a new table showing the first team players using a template i found on another page. What do people think of it? is it better or worse than before? --BurtonH0123 (talk) 16:56, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Please use the format as found in the Manual of Style for football clubs. It's a much nicer layout, anyway. Dancarney (talk) 20:30, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

sorry about that :P... BurtonH0123 (talk) 14:57, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Reg Smart

• Recent editor added note about Reg Smart stepping down from role (unspecified) in early 2006. I cannot find any verification for this elsewhere on the web - could this statement be clarified? -- MightyWarrior 12:03, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

The official website lists Baker as the current chairman and Smart as life president, so I believe this information to be correct. Although I can't find any verification for the fact that he resigned in early 2006, at http://www.cambridge-united.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News/Feature/0,,10423%7E793946,00.html it does state that Baker was named president on 20/02/2006. --Oli 22:21, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Yes, but Reg Smart ceased to be chairman (stepped down from board of directors) in 2002; see http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/cambridge_utd/1789540.stm. So what role did he step down from in 2006?? -- MightyWarrior 23:48, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

• Is it realistic to expect that the list of current players can be kept sufficiently up-to-date? From the club's official web-site it looks as though a number of players listed in this article have now moved on. -- MightyWarrior 12:03, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

• I think it is realistic to keep the current players up to date. I would happily take on the role of updating it if i hear of any transfers. --BurtonH0123 (talk) 16:57, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

Table of Managers

Here is a table of managers to add. I'm holding back at the moment until I can verify some of the dates that look iffy.

• I've used this information and created the page List of Cambridge United F.C. managers with a link from this page. I think the information is now correct using a combination of Soccerbase and the official website. Oli 22:34, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Headings

Seems to be too many sub-headings in the history section (more of User:AlexWilkes edits). Can I suggest that the sections are combined, rather than having one sentence per heading? WikiGull 13:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

• I did do this some time ago when there were many more headings, but I would agree there are still too many, especially the first few which could probably come under one 'older' history section. Why not have a go WikiGull? Oli 15:50, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

New Kit

Cambridge United have today released a new Home kit and as I am not very experianced with Editing football related articals I am going to suggest someone else to do it. The new kit looks like this,

Jazza5 19:17, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

The away colours need changing. The away kit is light blue, the 3rd kit is white.

http://www.footballshirtculture.com/200811251954/08/09-kits/cambridge-united-new-08/09-away-kit.html 87.82.25.114 (talk) 16:14, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

Women's Team

I've added a short sentence about this under players in line with a lot of other club pages, but I can't find much information about it. I think it would be beneficial to have something about this if any information can be found. Oli 22:32, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

History

I think the History section is too long and needs condensing, with a longer history (including more pre-league era information) being created on a separate linked-to page. I will start to do this unless anyone has any objections? Oli 22:36, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Fandom

An unnamed editor today (21/08/2007) added a section entitled 'Fandom' to the article. I've since removed this as there's already a section on 'Supporters', and most of the information read like an advertisement (price and sale information) and was thus unsuitable for Wikipedia (see WP:SOAP). I've put a more objective sentence on 'United in Endeavour' in the supporters section which I think is more appropriate. Oli 22:59, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

New Current Season Page

I have created a new page showing this season for Cambridge United. I am slightly unsure that i have included everything, in particular transfers, as for me the Cambridge utd website has not been working for me. Could somebody please take a look at it and help take it forward. By the way, i am happy to keep the results table up to date throughout the season so this is not an issue.
