2000/2001 Season:
Viveash, Parky and Gurney scored the goals earlier this season as Cambridge were beaten 3-0 at the Madejski Stadium:
2 December 2000: Reading 3 Cambridge United 0

1999/2000 Season:
Last season Reading failed to impress in their meetings with Cambridge, in the first season we'd played them in the league since the 1993/1994 season. At home we played out a disappointing 0-0 draw while away from home they beat us 1-3 in a game right at the start of the season:
15 January 2000: Reading 0 Cambridge United 0
14 August 1999: Cambridge United 3 Reading 1

Back in the 1993/94 season I remember well the trip to Cambridge United for the first round of the FA Cup - getting soaked on the away end watching a dull 0-0 draw - the Royals then went on to lose the replay 1-2 at home! Thankfully in the league we managed the double with a 3-1 home win and a 1-0 win away.
