Sadly there is a huge flaw in number 3 on your list

Yes there is a chance that Cambridge could have promotion tied up before our game

But for that to happen they’d need to win their next two games which if they did it would propel them into the title race so there will be no flip flops on

Please no! He's been awful so far, can't tackle, stands off, it says something when Shipley is preferred to him at left back. Another awful January signing no where near the level required or the type of player that we needed. Just a left sided Jack Thompson.

Oh yes, that pesky game they have with Bromley has scuppered the third rung on the ladder to freedom!

I think we can leap straight to step 4 in that case!

Perhaps it is words of folly, but I do think we can get something from our next two home games.

Oldham come unstuck on Saturday and we've done well previously against Walsall.

It's purely down to effort and desire now.

Hopefully Cambridge will be in the top two by the time we play them.
Good chance of picking some points up then

Hope is the last thing we have left.
And whoever put those arrows pointing down for Carlisle last season on the Holker Street End wants [SwearFilter].
I said at the time it was a stupid thing to do, and now it's come back on us.

Hope has never been a strategy or a tactic.

But if it’s all you have left it’s acceptable. Here’s hoping for a win tomorrow

I hope you're wrong.

Unless Foley doesn't think he's fit enough, I'd definitely start him at cb

I don't think that's why we could potentially going down

Agreed, old saying about how you treat those on the way up, as you will meet them on the way down. Anyway, some see it as banter, we’re bound to get a lot of shit when we go down, just as Morecambe have.

Banter my arse.
'Some',being the optimum word!
Carlisle hated us for having the temerity to get in the efl. Only have to listen to those two in the studio up there regularly, which I do, to understand that the sooner we are gone the better.

Any guesses at our starting XI tonight?

Can't see it being too different from Saturday.

How many injuries do we currently have? Freddie Anderson, Canavan, Raglan, Earing and Smith? Not sure if that's the lot, or there's more.

Tonight we are at war.
I expect nothing less than every player on the pitch to give their all, and if that proves to be not enough then so be it.
What I dont expect is a half @r$ed effort, like many we've seen this season leading to defeat.
If the players care then now is the time to show it.
