If we beat them then Morecambe v Carlisle will be a very interesting game.

Have to say I watched Carlisle v Gillingham Saturday, both teams were poor, though Carlisle did create 4/5 good chances and missed them badly.

Got my ticket for tomorrow. Show a bit of fight bluebirds, get the job done, and put another nail in the coffin for Carlisle.

Referee is Adam Herczeg hopefully a strong Ref who takes no nonsense and books players for simulation, can see a lively game tomorrow.

Get right into them from the 1st to the last minute, They are fighting for their lives so we need to match that intensity & win the right to play a bit, Hope our fans go out supping as early as possible and whet their whistles to encourage the team like it’s an away day.

It’s time to beat these & that times today.

Definitely, a draw would not be a bad result. Carlisle have to come to win draws no good for them.

All the talk in the world will soon mean nothing. The players actions will speak louder than any talk come kick off. 🤜🏼Focus, application, determination and true grit needed🤛🏼

It is sad and almost embarassing that we are talking about this game as if it is a great challenge and saying that a draw would be an ok result. However, Carlisle rank alongside Harrogate and, in the past, Fylde as a 'bogey' side. Added to that, our dismal record against clubs at the bottom of the league and I have to admit to feeling apprehensive myself. It promises to be a dour affair and not pretty to watch.

Just go for it. Carlisle need to points but we need to be on the front foot.

There are no good sides in league 2 and Carlisle is the worst side in league 2 that's why they are bottom of the league.

The if you don't win don't lose attitude did for us last season. Let's have a more positive attitude go out for the win straight into them !
