A week later in London, this is a League C match, by Leiton Oriental against Cambridge United, and Christina is the referee of the game, Christina put forward the hope that Liu Zhe will come to the scene to see his law enforcement, and Liu Zhe of course agreed, but also dragged his good friend Frank together, Liu Zhe obviously does not know so much about football, watching the game Liu Zhe suddenly asked Frank: "Frank, is Cambridge United a team of Cambridge students?" And Frank immediately glanced at Liu Zhe and said, "Do you have medium-rare steak in your head?" ”

Subsequently, Frank began to introduce the history of Cambridge United,

Cambridge United was founded in 1912 as a local team from Cambridgeshire, which was originally known as the Abbey League

It is named after the monastery where the team is located

The name Cambridge United was changed in 1951, two years after the club turned professional in 1949

The late '50s and early '60s were a good time for the team, with the team finishing runners-up in the Eastern Counties League and being promoted to the Southern League in the 57/58 season

Three seasons later, he was promoted to the Premier Division of the Southern League

After winning the Southern Super League title in 68-70, the team was selected in the fourth division, replacing Bantam Bradford, although in the 79/80 season the team finished eighth in the second division

However, in 1984, the team began to have a series of bad luck, first with a 31-game winless run in the league, setting a record in the fourth division, and in 1985, the team equaled the embarrassing record of 33 defeats in a single season in the fourth division, and the team returned to the fourth division in this way

In the early 90s, there was a brief break under the battered coach John Beck, who had a thriving third-tier play-off in the 90's, beating Chesterfield at Wembley to lift the club's first ever play-off title and reach the third tier

In the 90/91 season, the team won the third division and was promoted to the second division

The 91/92 season was the best result in league history, the best result in the top flight, and the failure to qualify for promotion in the second tier and fifth play-off was not only a missed opportunity to become the founding team of the Premier League, but also the closest the team has come to a top-flight campaign until now, reaching the quarter-finals of the FA Cup twice as a third-tier team in that run

In the 92/93 season, the club resigned from the decorated coach John Beck, and the team's results took a sharp turn for the worse, and in the 92/93 season the team was relegated to the third division

After two seasons, they were relegated to the fourth tier, although they were once relegated to the third tier

In 2002, they lost 4-1 to Blackpool in the final of the LDVVansTrophy and returned to the fourth division that season

In 2005, after 35 years in the fourth division, the team fell into the Anglo-African League, and with it, the club's financial problems surfaced, not only being taken over by the government that year, but also selling the club's stadium, the abbey stadium, Abbey Stadium, for £1.9 million to ensure the club's survival.

After Frank finished speaking, Liu Zhe suddenly realized: "It turns out that it has nothing to do with Cambridge University!" Then there are Cambridge United and Oxford United, right? "Of course, in 1893 Oxford United was founded in Headington. The following year, Sarfix United was incorporated into the team. The club was founded by John Scott-Tucker, pastor of St. Andrews Church in Old Sidington, and Robert Sichens, a local physician. The football team was established to help Headington Cricket Club's cricketers stay competitive during the winter break. The club's first game was against Cowley Barracks. It wasn't until 1913 that the club began to have an official home stadium. The team bought at the time

Droptenfield on London Road. But in 1920 the lot was ordered to be rebuilt. It was not until 1926 that the official home ground was established. The club purchased a manor lot on London Road. The main facilities of the stadium in the summer are used to host cricket matches, while in the winter they are used for football matches. It wasn't until the 40s that the cricket team officially moved out of the pitch. In 1899, six years after the club's existence, Headington United joined the Oxfordshire Regional Second Division. Until the outbreak of World War I, the team participated in the second division. In 1919, official football competition resumed in England and the Second Division was officially reorganized as the Oxfordshire Youth League. In 1921, the club qualified for the Oxfordshire Senior League. In his first season, the team won 9-0, with Druit scoring eight goals alone. It is also the highest number of goals scored by a player in a single game in the history of the Oxford FC first team. During this period, the rivalry between the team and Cowley Football Club began to escalate. Cowley is located a few miles south of Oxford. In a league match on Labor Day, the referee on duty awarded Cowley two penalties. Fans broke through the barriers of security personnel and players and wantonly attacked the referee. In 1931, the team played in the FA Cup for the first time, where they met Hounslow in the preliminary rounds. In the end, Headington lost 2-8. At the end of the 40s, the team participated in the Spartan League twice, finishing fifth and fourth, respectively. ”

Liu Zhe said: "Oh my God, England's lower league teams also have such a long history! ”

Frank immediately said proudly: "Of course, the history of English football is very long, and the English league system has more than 20 levels from the Premier League to the regional!" This is the birthplace of modern football! ”

Liu Zhe nodded yes, thinking of the motherland thousands of miles away, the development of football can never rely only on a Chinese Super League, if the domestic football atmosphere can be like England, why worry about football not improving!

At this point, Cambridge United's number seven tackled the left wing-back of Leyton East, and Christina immediately blew the whistle and then only verbally warned: "Watch your movements, don't do it again." The player immediately nodded as if he had been pardoned, because Christina is the referee of the Premier League, so there is still a strong authority over these teams in the lower leagues, and the head coach also warned the players not to question Christina's decision before the game, so Christina's game was relatively smooth, and in the stands, Liu Zhe said: "Isn't Christina always known for being strict with her cards?" Why didn't you play your cards just now? Frank gave him a blank look and said: "English referees generally don't play cards casually, they have to take out their cards when they foul, and there are still people on the field now!" Liu Zhe thought about it too
