    So heading for 35,000 between us across the two games.
    You can't argue with that in League 2.

    Are you serious, is that all. Just give us more tickets we can help fill the ground, surely your part of the pooled share would help you financially I read..

    they would get about £2 extra for each ticket sol, if that. Hardly seems worthy upsetting your own fans for a few hundred quid

    Well you have to remember Carlisle is a fairly small City population around 100,000, our average attendance this season is 6,500 (for us, that is reasonable) so to get 12,000+ home fans especially when its live on telly is bloody good.
    It seems to me that all 4 clubs in the play offs, stuck by the 10% rule, so you cant blame Carlisle for not giving you more tickets, just be thankful you aren't playing Soulfraud.

    It's a fairly small city but like Plymouth you have a massive catchment area, good rail links and should be a bigger club than you are. I lived in Wigton for about 2 years and I know its dominated by Liverpool and Man Utd fans but there's still a hell of a lot of Carlisle shirts and flags everywhere. Do a deal like ours and you would easily double your crowds.

    Kind of fantasy stuff I'm afraid, I agree we do have a lot of potential. However they have had ticket discounts before for individual games and they've fallen flat on their arses, unless we are doing well.

    Surely that would also, for a few £ , improve the atmosphere. Surely a full house benefits them financially because of periphery sales , such as merch, catering, hospitality. That’s profit added to the clubs bottom line that isn’t pooled to the semi finalists.

    2-1 To Sunderland in the first leg.

    Now 2-2 after 15 minutes.

    Anyone who thinks our tie is over is nuts.

    What has a Championship second leg play off anything to do with us, I don't think many if any think its a walk in the park, they showed on Sunday they are a decent side but so are we, and we have a one goal advantage, cheer up you miserable bugger.

    Yep, think that is good turn out. Don’t forget Carlisle population, at around 100,000, is one fifth the size of Bradford.

    1-0 is not advantage. It’s game on!

    As shown tonight it can be overturned quickly.

    Be quiet will you. I hope they’re not listening to your negativity

    @Onside@Onside has tickets booked already.

    1-0 at home in a two leg tie isn’t a good result. I hope we don’t regret not going for it more.
