The BELEAGUERED Carlisle Utd Thread

[Carver]

Coming to the end of November and we are rock bottom of League 2.

The league table doesn’t lie. The worst team in the football league.

13 points from 17 games, -15 goal difference. And some people think we’ll be too good to go down

At least we’re looking much better now than we were when a certain shit goalkeeper kept on starting.

Breeze coming in seems to have given the defence more confidence than that useless waste of a wage Lewis ever did.

There’s more hope now than before.

There has definitely been an improvement over the last 3 games. No doubting that. But it was from a really low floor to be fair.

Just think it might not be enough looking at our fixtures over the next pivotal month. Crewe, Newport, chesterfield, Port Vale. Really need wins from these games to keep in touch with the teams above, otherwise the gap may be too big come January like last season. But realistically can you see many if any wins coming from these games? Probably not. Maybe Newport but that’s never an easy game for us regardless.

My big fear is like last season we’re pinning our hopes on January while not shifting our arses out of trouble before then. Then when january comes the damage is pretty much irreparable. We’ve fucked up too often in the easier games and left ourselves needing wins from the tougher games.

I think we’ll go down sadly.

Well we’ll just have to wait and see but I am more hopeful of our chances of staying up after these last few games and with January not far away I have more faith in Williamson and the new sporting director to bring in the right kind of players than what Simpson and Abbot signed by wasting money on Lewis, Armstrong, Vela and giving Kelly and Wyke ridiculous contracts.

Has Williamson won you over then? As you were an advocate for getting more of a fire fighter in like Pete Wild rather than someone who will change the whole footballing philosophy.

He’s mixing things up a bit more now tactically and as I said before, dropping Lewis was the correct thing to do and proved to be a significant change to the confidence of the team as there is more of a fight about them now since that Wigan match.

I’m willing to give Williamson more of a chance after recent improvements. I think a sporting director finally coming in looks to have helped too.

It was mixed up at Salford, but last week at Bromley and yesterday i thought we were definitely trying to play a lot when we had the ball. The players seem to be adapting to it now, making decisions quicker and more subconsciously. Breeze over Lewis is making a positive difference.

Still think the lack of quality in certain positions is an issue that may well cost us.
