Plymouth Argyle travel to Cambridge United for a sold-out Sky Bet League One fixture that will double as a remembrance match this Saturday. The 1036-seat away allocation in the South Habbin stand is completely sold out, with no tickets available for purchase on the day.
A minute's silence will be observed before the 3pm kick-off at the Cledara Abbey Stadium to honour John Vaughan, the former Cambridge United goalkeeper who died earlier this week. Poppy Appeal collections will also take place around the ground. The fixture comes as Plymouth, fifth in the table with 19 points from 12 games, look to bounce back from a 3-0 defeat at Stevenage last Tuesday. They face a Cambridge side sitting one place above them in fourth, making this a key contest in the early standings.
Travel and stadium details
Plymouth supporters are making their second away trip of the week to the Newmarket Road ground. The away section has a total capacity of 1030, comprising 910 standing terrace spaces and 120 seats, plus three wheelchair spaces. The stadium operates a cashless system for all food and drink purchases inside, though cash is accepted at external outlets like the Club Shop and Ticket Office. The Ticket Office opens at 10am on Saturday, with turnstiles opening from 1pm.
A range of facilities are available for all fans. Sensory bags can be borrowed with a £10 refundable deposit, and audio descriptive commentary is provided for visually impaired supporters. Assistance dogs are permitted, and the sunflower logo indicates where someone may need extra time or help. The Multi-Faith Prayer Room is located behind the Mead Family Stand, and first-time visitors can register for a complimentary 'My First Visit' certificate.
Matchday experience
Cambridge United have organised several activities for the day. The Junior U's Kids' Zone, featuring mascots Marvin and Amber the Moose, opens at 1pm outside the stadium on Newmarket Road. A BrewBoard Fan Zone with Happy Hour offering £5 pints runs from 1pm to 2pm. New food options include Amber's Pizza in the Mead Family Stand, while United Fried Chicken continues in the Novus Main Stand. The 2026/27 matchday programme, featuring George Hoddle on the cover, is available for £4.
Supporters are reminded that the club operates a strict conduct policy. "Any incidents of this nature will be investigated and could lead to sanctions being applied by Plymouth Argyle, the football authorities, or the Police," a club statement said. Security checks will be conducted on all bags entering the stadium.
With no on-site parking available, fans are advised to use alternative transport. The Newmarket Road Park & Ride offers a matchday return ticket for £3.80, while the Citi 3 bus service also runs to the stadium. The Supporter Liaison Officer, Dave Matthew-Jones, will be available throughout the day for any queries. Plymouth's next fixture is this away match at Cambridge United on Saturday 24 October.
