Founded1912
Cambridge United was founded in 1912 as Abbey United, taking its present name in 1951, and has played at the Abbey Stadium since 1932. Elected to the Football League in 1970, the U's won the Fourth Division in 1976-77 and reached the second tier twice, most memorably under John Beck in the early 1990s. Relegated out of the League in 2005, they spent nine seasons in the Conference before winning promotion back in 2014, the same year they won the FA Trophy.
