Cambridge's FA Cup windfall cash going down the pan…!

Cambridge United will spend their FA Cup windfall sprucing up the toilets, says chairman Dave Doggett. The U's held Manchester United 0-0 at the Abbey Stadium on Friday to secure a lucrative replay at Old Trafford, which is expected to be worth more than £1m.

"Hopefully we can get the stadium done and start putting in some proper toilets," Doggett told the Sunday Mirror.

"Some toilets and tea bars and more hospitality - that's what we will do."

The Cambridge board have been desperate to upgrade their 8,000-capacity stadium, which hosted non-league football for nine years until last summer's return to League Two.
