Having watched a number of Carlisle games the latest being Stockport at home they have some top end League 2 players set up and coached brilliantly by Paul Simpson. The only players we have that would get in their team would be Brough and McLelland IMO. Yes we could beat them but not by going all out attack.

Wouldn’t surprise me to see Broughy in a Carlisle shirt next season, 1 I hope he stays with us & 2, If we have to sell him I hope we get a good deal done….

Oh noooo, Didn’t know that, Let’s hope we offer him a vastly improved deal as he’s certainly worth it & if we are to be challenging next season we need the better lads playing for us.

The club needs to get as close to self sustainable as possible Mike.
We can't keep throwing loads of money at players. I'm sure if PW wants to keep PB then talks will have started.

He’s off to Wrexham as long as they get promoted I’ve heard from a fairly reliable source.

That was a strong rumour a while back & could have traction, time will tell & as another posters says, If he was staying he’d have signed by now.

Aye - Jack Armer has been very consistent for us this season and is still young, having only turned 22 a couple of days ago. He's started every league game this season, and has already played well over 100 games for us. We also have a 19 year old left back who's enjoying an excellent loan spell in SFL 2 with Annan (the same club we re-signed CUFC youth product Owen Moxon from). Max Kilsby has been almost ever-present at Annan, and looks likely to have a decent future.

Brough has developed into an excellent league 2 player, but there's no guarantee he'd displace Armer. Doubt he'll be coming back to Carlisle.

Looks like I’m miles off then, Anyhow how we smash you on Saturday

I half missed a bit of our game yesterday & did I hear Adam say over 4K had been sold by Ko yesterday?? I might have heard wrong.

This is a club that, apparently, a few seasons ago - were skint - according to some posts I read on here. So how have they attracted these quality players? They're situated - similar to us - at the ar*e end of nowhere. So geographical location goes against them. Have they had a cash boost recently from some source?
