United ended Wycombe's 100% Manor record, although they were unable to convert their superior chances into goals. Still, unbeaten in four and another clean sheet must be pleasing, considering the absence of Anthrobus, for whom this was the first game of three that he'll miss.

Former U's finding the back of the net over the weekend include the original Deano (Saunders) who scored for Wales, Bobby Ford (remember him?) who scored his first of the season for Sheffield United, Mark Stein (again) for Bournemouth on Friday, and Martin Foyle for Port Vale against Grimsby (as I write!).

Having not been updated for a week there have been a few things missed, including the Reserves 2-1 win over Cambridge, with goals from Jamies Cook and Lambert; the taking on of Australian triallist (Paul Roberts) along with the news that Shotton is also going to be giving trials to a couple of French players and another Scot; news that the Pentith Judicial Review action is in conjunction with Rail Properties which possibly makes it more likely that it will actually happen; Paul Powell's signing of a new four year contract – who said that there's no place for loyalty in the modern game?
