We love our former U's, well most of them anyway, so thought I'd start a thread where we can keep up with them.
Thought I'd kick things off with a happier moment for Matt Jay in Essex as he scored a long ranger against Chelmsford at the weekend. It wasn't a joyous return though as Torquay shipped two late goals to lose 3-2 after leading 2-0.

Jay also got the equaliser away at Weston-super-Mare last night. Hopefully he's starting to enjoy his football again. [Post edited 26 Feb 2025 13:55]

So disappointed by this. Obviously a talented footballer and could've been an absolute baller for us but his career is littered with false starts. He's 25 and really should be kicking on not playing in the National League. What a waste. | |

Sad news for big Harry. Was decent for us and I always liked him as a player, especially in that match against Southend. | |

Jayden Fevrier has joined Charlton on loan from Stockport.

Going up a league on loan seems a bit odd. Shame it's not a big money move, as I expect we have a sell-on clause. |  | | |

The real shame is that we had to sell him in the first place, just to help pay for the ‘white elephant’ . Let’s hope Lisbie doesn’t go the same way. |  | | |

Now, now Danny, let's not be sarcastic! 
Listerning to you, anyone would think the people at the top of football only care about ££££
I'm a little puzzled that we are looking to loan a midfielder? What's happened to young Ronnie?
https://www.gazette-news.co.uk
Can we just fast forward to the 3rd Feb please. | | | |

Paywall for the first link - what'd he say? As for Ronnie, and I've just posted this on the injury thread, I recall hearing earlier this month (or at least sometime after Xmas) he was carrying a minor injury? No idea what, but I would assume it's no longer an issue. I guess it'll be down to who Danny and Nicky think is most ready for a defensive midfield slot? |  |

“It’s really helpful of the EFL to give us a three-game week in the last week of the transfer window – we’re so thankful for that!
“I don’t know who makes these decisions, not football people because it just blows my mind but it is what it is.
He also said “We hope everyone gets caught up with their fixtures and forgets about our players because we’d like to keep the group together, if we could but we know that that’s going to be a challenge.”
and
“We have to thank Robbie to this point, because we’ve had some unbelievable offers for some of our players and as everyone knows, he’s a guy who is selling the club”. | | | |

Not a former player, but it's good to see that Lamberk has found his rightfull place in footy being a pundit for Lad-brokes*, drivelling on about his best XI of players he's managed.
https://www.gazette-news.co.uk
I've listerned to the video three times but I can't understand a word of it. He sounds like a piss-head trying to order a curry. Something about David Fox being a class act. I would have included Jonnie Jackson myself.
It's funny, because if I had to choose my team of the biggest w@n#ers that had soiled our club, I'd be hard pushed to choose between him and Mick 'bigger bastard than....'

I guess a lot of people would say 'a fool and their money - they deserve it' but according to the UK government, the biggest fools are Joe Public who end up paying for it.

....but if some D-lister is desperate for a new Masersharti, then what does it matter whose shilling they take. [Post edited 29 Jan 13:04]

Two of the biggest tax paying individuals in this country own gambling companies. Says it all really. | |

At least they pay tax in the UK to fund the NHS etc instead of slithering off to Monaco or Singapore to pay their greatly reduced dues like some of our ‘patriots’.
The report the government commissioned several years ago clearly identifies that the gambling industry preys on certain sectors of our society, but what have they done about it, sweet FA.
Now the constant adverts are whitewashed with ‘know your limit’ or gamble aware’ It’s like a drug dealer waving heroin under your nose 24/7 and saying, just have one. | | | |

How affective would it be saying 'When the fun stops' to a cokehead?
Did banning fag adverts do anyone any harm (apart from tobacco firms)? People still sign up for cancer if they want to, but kids no longer see it as cool. Did banning car adverts glorifying speed actually hurt anyone? Have the restrictions on alcohol advertising actually stopped any of us having a tipple?
So why the f### do we allow vulnerable people to be constantly bombarded by betting adverts? I'm not advocating that there shouldn't be betting, I don't mind a flutter occasionally, same as I like a drink and I used to smoke.
Would it hurt football to only accept sponsorship from ethical firms? There were plenty of idiots that said F1 would never survive if they banned tobacco adverts, but it seems to be managing OK.

...but the bigger question I hear you say, is what the chuff has this got to do with Former U's players?
