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.

905 Carlisle at Tranmere.

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...

Four Cumbrians in the first eleven. If that's not something to get behind then I don't know what is.

That's why I said it wasn't all his own fault in brackets. He may well start. He is a proper central midfielder after all unlike Mellish and Whelan. Maybe he's thick skinned and full of confidence in his own ability, in which case throw him back in. Only Simpson and Harris know if he's got the...

The problem won't be so much the starting 11. The problems will start if / when we need to switch it up during the game. The bench is going to look extremely weak and inexperienced. Stretton should be ready to start which will be an improvement on Tuesdays team. Huntington possibly back in...

I'm not condoning overly aggressive play and bully boy tactics. That is both negative and ugly. What I'm after is for us to be more savvy and proactive in dangerous situations. We were facing a counter-attack. Guy was out of position on the wing. He found himself in a situation that should be...

The second goal was a lovely move culminating with a fantastic header. I would say though that Callum Guy shouldn't have messed around with Paddy Madden. He should've tripped him or pushed him out of play. We have become more robust under Simpson but at times still play too fair.

It's not exactly Martin Wilkinson standards (if you're too young then count yourself lucky because that really was the pits). First defeat was against Barrow in the Pizza cup. The team picked resembled a reserve fixture. Enough said. Second defeat was a narrow home loss against the league...

Cheer up. The last time we won this league with Paul Simpson in charge we lost 4 league games in a row around October time. He's just repeating history.

1,116 Carlisle at Stockport.

Brunton Park capacity is 17,949 which includes the use of the Waterworks End (Petteril End) for away supporters if needed. https://www.carlisleunited.co.uk/siteassets/documents/cufc_groundguide_1920.pdf

The 0-0 at yours in 1997 in the AWS Area Final was an even more memorable night. Apart from almost getting crushed in the overpopulated away end the atmosphere was first class.

Apologies got you mixed up with the Orient supporter. I won't be apologising for anything else though because your attitude and opinion is way off the mark currently.

I won't fuck off. I bothered to turn up today. There's a time to be negative and we've had an hell of a lot of it during the last 15 years but now is certainly not a time for negatively. We lost a game but our performance was spot on. Everything you need to know about today was shown by the...

It sure is a turning point in our season. A turning point for the positive. I'm sick and tired of reading your negative bollocks on here. Give it a rest. Support the team. It is a team worth supporting for the first time in years. We are good whether you like it or not. Superb atmosphere as...

Don't think I've ever left a game so pleased after a defeat. Top notch performance. Good luck to anyone wanting to put up a fight against us because we mean business and look like a proper team. The reaction on the Orient bench says it all. Up the blues and up Paul Simpson!!

That was the FA Cup 4th round. I did think of that game but the East Stand was Carlisle only that day.
