If the pitch was like it was for us then I can see why a cup upset would be more likely to be fair. The grass was far too long which basically made all attempts at passing play useless. That being said Warrington were dire, even for a friendly match against a team 3 leagues lower than ourselves...

What on earth is the keeper doing?

Curle liked Garnett, unfortunately I think the flooding messed up any chance he had of a contract as he had nowhere to stay so had to go back to London. KC said we'd keep an eye on him with a view to bringing him back up when the time was right, we signed Mark Ellis around that time though so...

Hahaha amazing, hope we trounce them now.

A match made in heaven!

Well non-league encompasses a lot more teams than just League 2 so I suppose more posts would be expected? Match threads worked fine as they are last season for me, albeit there's enough CUFC posters to make them work. I know some of the other match threads had very few posts, if any. It may be...

I couldn't make much sense of it myself, seems like it would make more sense to play them together and show everyone else the type of runs to make for Devitt's passing. Ever since he purposely brought a brick and some lip balm to an interview I've learned it's best not to pick apart his oddities.

We've just started a game against Workington. Our first half team, which looks like a 4-4-2: Gillespie, T Miller, Raynes, Ellis, Grainger, Lambe, Jones, McKee, Adams, S Miller, Trialist Curle isn't playing Miller and Devitt together in pre-season as he says both would benefit more from...

He's quick and has a decent cross on him which are two of the main things a player like him needs to be good at, the other attributes can be worked on I guess. I don't really expect him to go to a Prem team but I'd be very interested to see how much compensation we'd get if he did. Anything over...

If that's tinpot, and the players came to us, does that make us massive??

Certainly isn't looking good for Morecambe. I hope they stay up seeing as they've given us Miller and Devitt but at the very least they'll be in a relegation scrap I would think.

I think with the money I've seen being spent so far this summer, with teams like Portsmouth and Orient who were no pushovers last season making some good signings, the teams coming up probably won't have as easy a time as Rovers did to go up last time. Consistency can only take you so far over...

Honestly can't tell if you're joking or not. I hope you are. If not, I'd advise taking a look at some of the other squads which are being put together at the moment. We've got a pretty good one and I'm still mostly expecting us not to make the top 3.

Wes Fletcher would be a good, cheap backup striker I think. First half keeper hasn't done himself any favours, need to be signing one soon though as we can't be going into the season with only Gillespie and the youth keepers. I'll be at the Warrington match, think that's the only pre-season...

Surprised you guys didn't go for Shaun Brisley, think he wanted to move closer to home (Manchester) so going to you would've been ideal, certainly more so than coming all the way up to Carlisle.

1) Portsmouth 2) Leyton Orient 3) Carlisle --------------------------- 4) Doncaster 5) Mansfield 6) Luton 7) Cambridge --------------------------- 8) Accrington 9) Wycombe 10) Plymouth 11) Hartlepool 12) Notts County 13) Cheltenham 14) Colchester 15) Barnet 16) Blackpool 17) Yeovil 18) Grimsby...

We did Cassius Camps again a few days ago. General consensus seems to be that it's physically the hardest day of the players' careers. We did it last year and it seemed to do the job, the players mentioned it every now and then throughout the season when we came from behind to win (coming back...

Hello

Pleased with Brisley, glad to see Curle addressing the defence having pretty much sorted out attack and midfield already. Not sure who we'll start now though, Raynes, Ellis and Atkinson would all surely feel aggrieved at not starting the first match having been regulars last season, but Brisley...

As has been said on our forum, the use of the word 'exciting' to me suggests it won't be. Unless the exciting part is how good a signing it is, or maybe it's a youngster. I'm looking forward to it whoever it is, and the fact that Dykes has said what he did must mean he's pretty confident of...
