Carlisle United needed to either take the transfer window fully seriously or not bother at all.
We’ve improved the midfield, haven’t really bothered with our crap defence and have added completely unproven gambles in the final third. 3 forwards in with about 6 career league goals between them...
I reckon one or two more of our more optimistic fans will be joining me in the view that we are 100% going down
Its the hope that kills you, and having hope of staying up makes days like today feel worse for the optimists no doubt.
For me, I fully expect performances and results like this...
Another inept performance and home defeat. Credit to Swindon, but we made it so easy for them. We are simply terrible at both ends of the pitch and so easy to play against.
That’s now 5 defeats from our last 6. Our worst run of results of the season. Our form is getting worse which is worrying...
Considering the lack of goals in our team all season, the transfer business we’ve done has been poor for a club supposedly doing everything to stay up.
I was hoping we’d get a real quality addition to give me some hope that we can score the goals to stay up, but Cedwyn Scott, Joe Hugill and Joe...
And Morecambe have won the wrestle.
I’m genuinely surprised. Maybe they aren’t as broke as people think.
I’d be interested to see how Carver talks his way out of us losing out on a player to a relegation rival.
The Jimmy Glass thing is cringeworthy.
Finishing 2nd bottom of the football league is not something that should be celebrated years later. On the day yes, but then should be quickly left in the past and forgot about.
It’s stuff like this, the glorification of failure that I believe contributes...
You mean before the season we got promoted, like most of the bookies thought. Pre season predictions, which you know, can be wrong. Take this season for example… Think I predicted us finishing 16th or something. Obviously as the season has gone on I now realise that is now going to be wrong.
Based on what I’ve been reading, I think I’ll pass on Andy Dallas.
If we sign him we sign him, but it’s not one that looks like could be a game changer for us.
Also what has been evident all season from Simpson’s team and now this new team, once we go behind we are done. I’m sure I saw somewhere we’ve picked up 2 points all season from losing positions. That is shocking and another key factor in why we’re where we are and why we’ll be relegated.
You’d think with all the money we’ve been splashing out we’d buy some goal threat, but so far we’ve signed 2 forwards who don’t score many goals at football league level and looks like we’re bringing in another who doesn’t really score many.
As I think we’re down I was of the view that we...
Well you’ll see.
I have no faith whatsoever in this squad and manager getting us out of this.
There have been zero improvements in results since Williamson came in. Mostly not his players I know, but majority of these new players arrived at the start of January, yet we’re now going into...
This is like us with Paul Dummett.
Tore his hamstring 4 minutes into his debut. It's probably him done for the season. We're paying him a rumoured 8k per week.
I’ve already answered this but I’ll answer it again a bit more…
Because in 27 matches they’ve been better than us and have managed to accumulate more points, more wins and a healthy 5/6 points buffer on us.
Based on this, and the fact we’re showing no sign of improvement in our results, it’s...
And this might be an unpopular view but I don’t think our transfer business has been anywhere near good enough for a team that seriously wants to stay up.
Weve no doubt strengthened the midfield, but a big problem is we’ve lacked goals. We’ve brought in Hugill and Scott who between them have...
I don’t have hope of us staying up. Until we can prove we can string a few wins together (something we haven’t done in 2 years), there’s no hope.
For what it’s worth, I believe we will improve in time. But by the time these players are moulded into an effective team, it’ll be far too late.
I...
