Didn't go today but pleased with a point. Only ten out on total away fans too...

Good job too...it's sooooooo far away! On the train with the players which is a bit of a laugh...

Also from Curle's post match interview it sounds like Dicker and Troy are no longer transfer listed.

Phillips asked if there was any news on the 5 transfer listed players and Curle corrected him that there were now only 3 transfer listed players. Well the 5 were Troy, Dicker, Sweeney, CMW and Kearns, and seeing as the first two started today and the latter three are yet to feature this season, all signs point to Troy and Dicker no longer being transfer listed.

That's good news then, Troy was solid today. Dicker was decent again, but I don't know why some fans were booing when he was subbed off. Joyce had a poor game again though, and maybe should've been subbed.

Hopefully we can get rid of Sweeney and Kearns, neither are likely to feature very much this season.

I'd drop Grainger, and make Kennedy/Raynes/Troy captain. He's a liability in defence, and his only positive is he can cross a ball reasonably well.

Not sure if it was a case of 1 point gained or 2 flogged. On paper it isn't enough as we need wins, but as game went on I think dons well worth their point and we thankfully fmgot back in game.

First half I think we were on top, created from alot of corners but just would not deliver in that final moment. Think dons took lead from very little, but grew from goal and looked useful and defended well.

Second half they did a perfectly timed fake injury 1 min in to kill any early buzz from us and it worked a treat as we never got going.

The turning point was when Wimbledon missed 2 great opportunities for a second goal which gave us a chance. Our subs added balance which was sorely missed as kennerdy was out of place on left, but we scored out of the blue really from a set play, Wimbledon who had superbly marked jabo out the game previously let him space just the once and he took it.

Goal lifted us and nay have won it but alot of final balls or choices were poor.

Fair result in end

Mark of a great striker that... you only have to let him out of your sight once and he's scored.

I can see teams paying more attention to him, feeling that the way to play us is to stop the Jabonaut, but hopefully that will leave space for our other strikers.

Thank fuck we have the best striker in the league.

Nice to see us doing some trust building activities in the middle of the match although I'd maybe focus on trying to defend the goal if I were Hery.

It was an oddly low key goal celebration from Jabo today... Well compared to his previous 6 anyway.

 

[Wombletom]

Only 2 goals. I want my money back.

Carlisle edged the 1st half and I thought we scored a little against the run of play. Once in front thought we looked fairly comfortable without ever really being threatening
Carlisle equaliser (was always gonna be Jabo), changed the game more in favour of the home team.

Overall thought a point a piece was a fair result.

Interesting because I thought we were absolutely shite in the first half.

I certainly think we had a strong first 10/20 minutes but yeah, weren't good for the rest of that half... Just the 442, didnt seem attacking enough,

What 4-4-2? We had 3 at the back all afternoon. I thought we would have been more suited to 4-4-2 today but obviously Curle thought different.

Looked like we began:

Gillespie
Miller Troy Raynes Grainger
Joyce
Kennedy Dicker
Hery
Ibehre Asamoah

I was expecting that when I saw the lineup, but it wasn't...

Kennedy started at left wing back (weirdly), then he swapped places with Hery for a while in the first half, then Brough came on for Dicker 2nd half and slotted into that position which gave us more balance.

We play total football

Just had a flick through the Wimbledon 'messageboard'.

Once our team gels I think we'll move well away from our perception as the division's whipping boys. Not saying we'll go up, but no longer will every point we take off another team result in their fans having a meltdown. For the past few years it has (perhaps justifiably) been the case that even drawing games at home against teams who have no ambitions of promotion themselves has resulted in the opponents fans calling for heads to roll as not managing to steamroller Carlisle is the lowest they've ever sunk to as a football club.

Things will change.
