  • Boreham Wood (A) Review and Xmas Fixtures Preview - Can United bounce back from two league defeats in a row with the Xmas Week Double-Header? - Season 25/26, Episode 26
    Dec 24 2025

    It's two defeats in a row for Untied in the league as they're comfortably beaten 2-0 at fellow promotion hopefuls Boreham Wood - is it time for panic stations or is it just a blip?


    There's an opportunity for the Blues to get back on track in the Christmas week as they face consecutive fixtures against bottom four sides, where nothing less than six points will be considered a disappointing outcome.


    We look back on the loss in Hertfordshire before previewing the final two fixtures of 2025.

  • Blackpool (A) FA Cup Review and Woking (H) and Harborough Town FA Trophy Previews - United's FA Cup dream ends on the seaside - Season 25/26, Episode 24
    Dec 10 2025

    United's "Road to Wembley" via the FA Cup has ended for yet another season, as they were beaten 4-1 at Blackpool at the weekend - despite the scoreline, the Blues gave a decent account of themselves against a League One side once again this season.


    While the route to the national stadium via the FA Cup has closed, the FA Trophy journey begins this weekend - with a first ever visit to Harborough Town and a role reversal of United's cup ties across the rest of the season. Can we avoid a potential banana skin against the promotion-chasing Southern League Premier Division Central side.


    Before that though, in-form Woking are the opponents at Brunton Park in the National League - both sides are unbeaten in nine league games, will something give or should we expect a stalemate?
