Yeah, if he carries on like he played on Saturday it'll be a short and sweet stay, sadly. Is it FACT we've got an option?

Neil Harris masterclass β Excited to find out from his post-match how many different mentalities we exhibited. A very promising start π€π§‘
02.08.2025 16:08 β π 4 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0Really like the look of AppΓ©rΓ©, especially if we can get another striker up there with him. Knight should be fun this season.
02.08.2025 14:52 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 2 π 1Don't read that as a complaint, by the way. I'm more than happy for us to be fairly attritional as long as we come out on the right side of it more often than not. And we have the players to do so.
02.08.2025 14:52 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0A proper Neil Harris Cambridge United Football Team performance. We're so back π§‘π€
02.08.2025 14:50 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Seems like a decent enough signing. League Two promotion on his CV (where he was a regular starter) and young enough to improve. If we get one more forward in this week dare I say our transfer window has been... not bad? #camutd
29.07.2025 18:28 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Hard not to feel inspired after hearing Harris in usual, bullish, mood. But also hard to believe it's really a new era if we go into the first game of the season with Lofty as our only available striker. Big week coming up. #camUTD

Incredible local news item. No one should have their buns squeezed against their will in a supermarket.
21.07.2025 21:56 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0So despite their protests about him not being for sale, I suspect he is for sale and we haven't bid the right amount yet. I wonder if we will, he certainly seems an ideal Neil Harris Player for a Neil Harris Football Team
21.07.2025 20:58 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0The interesting thing about this Harry Smith story is that someone at the Swindon end keeps leaking our bids, cos clearly it's not in our interest (or, really, the player's) to keep being so specific about the sums involved; www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/253271... #camutd

03.07.2025 11:10 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0So xAI is bringing revenue to Memphis, and funding infrastructure projects in an area that isn't flush with cash. Its growing presence will likely make the city more attractive to other businesses, too. Unsurprisingly, business leaders are lapping it up: www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/elon...
03.07.2025 11:10 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0So far, so bad. But xAI is also funding a waste water treatment plant, for use not only by its data center but other businesses too. It's also bankrolling some power grid improvements: www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/elon...
03.07.2025 11:08 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0xAI disputes any breach of course, but gas turbines are polluting and there's no doubt they will have negatively impacted the environment since the data center opened: www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/xai-...

It's one that actually makes a physical product for a market that is growing fast and where there aren't tons of other options for buyers.
