Simpson wasn't impressed last week with the way we threw it away but this week he needs to give himself a good look in the mirror.
Three at the back was overkill with the way the game was going. We needed an extra man in midfield. Charters should've been on at half time or pushed Mellish...
Carlisle United 3 - 0 Sutton United
All evidence points to nothing else but a routine Carlisle United win this afternoon. Paul Simpson will be demanding a performance after his fury at last week's cock-up.
Fair enough, solid reply.
You're text most of the time reads like you have unrealistic expectations of the standards of league two football and the general inconsistencies involved.
Enjoy the ride. Tone down the unnecessary negative language. Its not good for the health and its not in tune...
I'm not exactly sure what you're after from Carlisle United. You do realise that we're a league two club?
To say that we were terrible for 60 minutes is an insult. Sure, we were starved of possession, but seriously possession is vastly overrated, and when possession football is played the...
Harrogate cost themselves a well earned victory by crapping their pants when taking the lead. I understand, we've been in that situation many times over the years desperate for a win but it does make you wonder why managers want to change the flow of a game they're dominating.
We really missed...
We do get a small number of Rangers fans visit Brunton Park when they're not playing.
Regarding the paddock situation. The most logical solution would have been to stick a copper and a couple of stewards in the area.
Any excuse for the club to fuck over the fans (not even been made to do it...
Holy, Back, Armer, Mellish, Guy, Moxon, Gibson and Dennis have all started in 90% of our league games. It's not bad having that level of consistency in the starting eleven after a third of the season.
Granted a few of them might be playing with knocks but I'd hazard a guess that most players...
The opposite of our game at Stockport on Tuesday.
According to their fans it was one of their best performances of the season and it was one of our worst.
Usually the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
I'd rather be solid and consistent than being occasionally spectacular.
The spectacular...
It was a full pre-season but it was a pre-season that started early. It might've only been a weeks less holiday but a week is quite a lot when it comes to resting professional sports bodies.
There's been a lack of rain this year. Pitches are dry and firm. Not so much a problem up here, we've...
Dickenson and Senior are funny ones. You could say that before a ball was kicked they'd have been first choice. However there's not a chance either of them would've regularly displaced Armer and Back on this seasons form. For me right now they're unquestionably our first choice wing backs. Sure...
To be honest the hysteria over our injury crisis is rather tedious.
For the majority of the season we've been able to pick our first choice back five. Whelan was rightfully keeping Feeney out of the team.
The midfield three of Guy, Moxon and Gibson have played the majority of games. Again...
He could've been lined up in North Korea for all I care.
He ran them ragged. You can always tell a forward has had a good game when the opposition defence start losing their temper with him.
Centre forward, right wing, central midfield, right of a four, on the floodlights. He was everywhere.
N
Nope.
Stretton was a forward. He might well have been pushing down the right hand side of the forward line but he was most definitely a forward.
Don't get yourself all flustered because we won young lad.
We had two upfront. Not sure where this one fit forward lark is coming from?
What do they say in Liverpool? Boss. We certain did boss it.
The three Jack's gave everything out there today. Armer struggled a touch against the No 7 first half but he set that straight in the second half. Ellis was...
100% Tranmere never took over for a second of that first half. The only danger was poor defending for two near post headers from corners and looking a little leggy towards the end.
Looked leggy towards the end of that half. It's possible that our weak bench will cost us a win. Battling like warriors and the team are in it together. Good to see.
That's your preference.
I think it's something to be proud of. I was brought up on a diet of Jansen, Edmondson, Hopper, Prokas, Murray etc. It's long overdue seeing a few decent local lads represent the blue shirt.
Seeing a lad from Staveley represent Carlisle United and do a good job of it...
