| The consensus seems to be that the second induction ceremony for the Cambridge United Hall of Fame, held at the Cambs Glass Stadium on Thursday, March 9, was a terrific success all round. A Premier Travel Suite packed with 120 guests paid tribute to four new inductees to the Hall of Fame: John Beck, Ian Darler, Dion Dublin and Paul Wanless. Beck, Dublin and Wanless received the accolade following voting among supporters; stadium manager Darler, whose career of nearly 40 years has been punctuated by many other awards, was selected by a committee. The Coconuts committee is hugely grateful to Graham Daniels, who acted as master of ceremonies on the night, Paul Burling and his staff, whose catering and service were top class, and Olivia Disley-Stevens, Cambridge United's conferencing and events manager, for her help in putting the evening together. Here is the second batch of photos, from Simon Lankester, from an evening that will be remembered for a long time.
