We've produced a special retro programme styled after the programme from the last time we played Barrow in the league (or indeed any competitive fixture).

commercially that's probably a smart move as fans from both teams will look at buying it.

Yeah hopefully a decent consignment of them have made their way down to Barra

 

[BlackHaddock]

Our programme for the Bradford game is a 'Blank Page'.

 

[SVH]

Away to Exeter. Fancy us to nick it 1-0.

 

[Casey]

Hey Shoddy, of topic but whats the difference between Cumbria and Cumberland?

Noticed the newspaper is Cumberland but Carlisle is in Cumbria.

[chipmunx]

Cumbria is a ceremonial and non-metropolitan county.
Cumbria is formed of the old counties of Cumberland (that Carlisle was in), Westmorland - and part of Lancashire (mainly Barrow).

Edit - and a little bit of the West Riding of Yorkshire*

Fair play, I cant see us losing. Comfortable 2-0 win is my guess. Tomorrow will tell

More to the point, how was the match report written a month before the match?!

 

[chipmunx]

Now that Alan Nixon has predicted a 2-1 Carlisle win i'm feeling more confident about Barrow getting a result tomorrow.

Have you done them in your other home games this season, or is it just a one off for this game?

That's funny, i wonder if it's an original typo

 

[shoddycollins]

Only for games which are 56 years in the making.

Didn't know Nixon did predictions, thought he was just a transfer rumours type.

Back then Cumbria would still not exist, well not as an administrative area at least, but the newspaper is still called the Cumberland Times (if it's the same newspaper that is)

 

[The Terminator]

Ross Embleton has said that quite a few players returned to training this week and that we will be able to field a good enough team with subs for the game with Cheltenham tomorrow, however all the players haven't trained for two weeks and our team is going to be a bit mix and match.

Cheltenham won't get a better chance this season to win a game, they didn't play last week but have been able to train and probably played a friendly or something to keep the match sharpness up, whereas all our players have been at home for two weeks.

I'd take a draw, if we're to stand a chance of getting anything we'll need to score quickly because I can see us running out of steam having not trained for so long.

So annoying as we'd started well and was scoring goals.

 

[The Jovial Forester]

Bring back Rheged.

 

[shoddycollins]

Radio Cumbria currently doing a special preview. I wonder how they're doing the commentary, will both teams get their usual commentary teams on FM and AM as usual?

 

[shoddycollins]

Bring back Rheged.

You can always stop off at the Rheged centre just outside Penrith next time you're up here

Always fancied a trip to that valley where the last king of Cumbria is buried but I'd have to look it up again, read the story ages ago.

Dunmail Raise, it's right off the A591 between Ambleside and Keswick, just look for the old AA box. He was supposedly buried in a tarn at the top of the mountain though so enjoy your walk.

to answer my own question... yes

1-1

 

[Carver]

Barrow are looking weak, have a clueless manager and we're getting close to thrashing someone so it may as well be them.

4-0 win im going for.

Just a shame no fans will be there to see their cup final this season.

 

[SVH]

I think you’ll have plenty of the ball tomorrow but we are dangerous on the break. We haven’t conceded a goal this season and have scored 8. Anything can happen on the day but I’m confident it won’t be a comfortable 2-0 win for you.

Should've been a comfortable 2-0 win for Tranmere last week so I don't see why not.

 

[SVH]

Should've been a comfortable 2-0 win for Tranmere last week so I don't see why not.

In that case it should be a comfortable 5-0 win for you today then.

Not far off.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Harrogate v Bolton. Be very careful of the ref Mr Speedie. He is awful.
