Brilliant fight back. Completely unexpected so all the more enjoyable 🤣

Based on just that today. I’d happily have as many as possible of that team/bench players next season and build again. Even though that won’t likely happen. Get in.
I think we have nine of our current squad on contract for next season including a few beyond that.
First goal not sure if Browne fouled Canavan before finding space to hit that thunderbolt. Could have been a penalty after Fletcher took out their player in the box. I thought we had gotten ourselves out of jail there and then but oh no we gift them their second. Game should have been over at that point., but Andy Whings sides show resilience more often than not.
A brilliant comeback against one of the toughest defences in the league. Just reward for those that made the effort to be there👏

Yeah Fletcher definitely took the man, the referee put the whistle to his mouth but looked at the linesman who had a better view about time we had a break!

Maybe, just maybe the stick Andy Whing was taking after the Carlisle game “non league manager, non league football” etc was unjustified…..
Superb result

A position they have been in majority of the season. Sorry but it absolutely stinks.. that comeback today was the kind of comeback of champions.
Have to agree with Jonty, three points for Carlisle is a bigger deal than one point for us at the moment, bit of a back-handed compliment really! No point in getting all upset about a bit of radio coverage.
Would be great to take 6pts off them next season, people saying we give two bad goals away, did Wimbledon do the same and shows again just because one team is leading by 2 goals the game is never over until the Final whistle. Do supporters seriously think our players don`t try just because we haven`t had a shot on target and losing 2-0.

Nearly 400 fans is a fantastic away following. Pleased for those who went after some of the awful away performances this season.

I hope there were no Wimbledon fans listening to Adam's after match comments. They wouldn't have been too impressed by Adam's co-commentator referring to them as 'MK Dons' !

Fantastic fight back, Bravo & especially pleased for Mahoney, Hope he refinds his Mojo for us as he clearly is a gifted player who’s a bit lost atm.

Seen a few others and the co commentator saying there was a foul on canavan in the build up but it was hard to Judge on tele. No one appealed though which says a lot

Canavan was tripped by Browne. Mahoney certainly enjoyed his goal😁

Carlisle fans certainly had more to celebrate than us.
I think that is their first win at home on a Saturday for 566 days.
