The BELEAGUERED Carlisle Utd Thread

[hellogregory]

What's the preferred result tonight? Accy win? Draw?

Those fans who think we can still stay up are best to answer.

For me it’s irrelevant as we aren’t winning enough games ourselves to be in contention to stay up.

Well n that case you need tranmere to lose because they are still not many wins away from us

Well if you're not going to get behind the team then just do one you miserable sod.

Ah here we go, he’s flip flopped again. Let me guess… we’re now staying up.

Make up your fucking mind

can we have Carver and hellogregory in oversize boxing gloves and sumo suits duelling in the centre circle as pre-match entertainment?

We've seen improvements in performances and I'm sure the goals will come on Thursday night, we're so close and it's still achievable.

So stop being so bloody negative and get behind the lads.

Even in the past when we've done well you said we were shit and going down.

First and foremost you have to go by results and the first 2 months of 2025 have been our worst run of form of the season. We were bad before the new year, but we’ve somehow got worse. There have been zero improvements. Our 2025 form has been even worse than typical relegation form.

It would be achievable if there is or has been any signs of improvement. But there hasn’t been any. We’ve been consistently shit and ineffective all season. It’s absolute pie in the sky cloud cuckoo stuff to expect this team to suddenly string a run of wins together. It ain’t happening.

With respect to Gillingham, they are in terrible form, if we can’t beat them at home, who are we going to beat? You suddenly think we’re going to go to barrow and win, and then follow that up by beating the league leaders on Tuesday? Come on…

And I do get behind the team. What do you think i have a season ticket for? What do you think I’m going to Barrow and Harrogate to do? Support the opposition? I can get behind the team while still holding the opinion that this team is going down and is the worst Carlisle United team I’ve ever seen.

I'm firmly in the camp of wanting Carlisle to string a few results together and stay up now just for the banter.

The one and only reason I would be happy to see Carlisle relegated is Carver.

Actually it's because you and every other club in this league knows that once we turn this around and get going we'll be a huge threat to be feared.

The reason this league has looked so poor this season is simply because we weren't up at the top end of the division.

Our clubs ambition and expectations are to become a Premier League team much like Brighton, Brentford and Bournemouth etc who were all once lowly L2 clubs.

You could well be right based on those examples.

But you very much need some 'quiet time' on the National League 'naughty step' before any of that can even think about happening.
