    Stickied League 2 Transfer Rumours/Confirmed Transfers 2024/25

    Wish I could comment on his footballing ability but he rarely played and the main memory I have of him is him callously moving a tribute shirt the game after George Baldock died. He won’t be missed for that reason alone, even if he is excellent for you.

    Because them sacking him after a loss to us after paying us a lot of money for him is hilarious

    The BELEAGUERED Carlisle Utd Thread

    Armstrong sounds like exactly what we need to go alongside Hogan up top... though being outpriced by Wrexham on deadline day is still a massive blessing in disguise.

    The BELEAGUERED Carlisle Utd Thread

    Embleton was an MW signing, we were in for him in the summer. As for current players... we were left in a position where squad depth wasn't exactly glowing so Lindsey has used the majority of the squad he was given, but some have certainly fallen out of favour. I'd expect Wearne, Leigh and...

    We've been better away thankfully so I'm hopeful going into this one. Just please beat Williamson, that's all. Even better if it's the result that tips their owners over the edge.

    The return of El Plastico and one we really need to win, though I’m not sure what will happen with the squad, we might need to have a change in keeper if McGill is going to be recalled which I would guess is likely.

    The BELEAGUERED Carlisle Utd Thread

    I don't even think it's that sneaky. Our fans have a bit of a mixed relationship with him and a fair few blame him most of all for our relegation in 2023 where he tried to resign afterwards and was turned down, so a new opportunity probably wouldn't be unwelcomed for him. But what we do have...

    It's really starting to be obvious that our best result of the season has already been decided with over half of the season left to play... the 3-0 win against Carlisle in August is becoming a standout. That game conned the owners into believing MW was incredible and our entire model was the...

    I’m sure there were some rumblings about us wanting Nichols so that could be an option. We’re also looking likely to sign Wright from Swindon. Not sure if that’s already been mentioned but supposedly his dad is saying it’s pretty much a done deal.

    That's not my point either... and at that time, we did like him as it was before all the negatives became commonplace. The point is that footballers even at this level are pretty good and a lot of them would both be used to and prefer a better style, and while we maybe had a squad more suited...

    We managed to go from Alexanderball to Williamsonball (before he got figured out) pretty quickly so it's not impossible, though it would take longer than a few games based on the very limited knowledge I have of your squad.

    El Plastico is clearly the best one in League 2

    Who can give the funniest excuses as to why we're not very good this season?

    Played on by your left back, and perhaps even the left sided centre back too.

    Nah, played on by one if not two defenders because of the perfectly timed pass from Carroll.

    Let’s be honest we haven’t been sensational at all during our winning run, but so long as we keep finding ways to win who cares how we play!

    What happened for that second yellow? Sky were still waxing lyrical over that McGill save

    Not even 15 seconds had gone by. Almost certainly our fastest goal I’d imagine

    There have been 15 games between MK Dons and Chesterfield since 2004... The home side has won one of those. Add to that our last win against Chesterfield was in August 2014 in a game we should have lost. Confidence has dipped.
