Match Thread Home v Carlisle Utd Sat May 7th @3.00pm

I can confirm that I was at both games. Really enjoyed today but the Workington mid week match was a huge disappointment.

 

Why are you so keen to try and point this out, Super Bantam my arse

 

Gibson was tidy enough and probably their best player on the day without really threatening us though.

As for Patrick, same as when he was here, he's fast, but that's it, overall I thought he was poor, especially ball control, which was laughable on more than one occasion.

Probably Carlisle's worst player though was Pizza boy, truly shocking

 

Im still open minded, but looks like it was filmed by the club photographer, but if you read my comment I said “Used as a marketing ploy?” .That means some may find it questionable, as you indeed did.

 

The clubs Twitter feed comes across childish at times, as though it's comments made a by a kid doing his GCSEs.i guess it's all about the likes these days.

 

That’s the in thing these days, I follow a lot of EFL clubs on Twitter to keep up to date and they’re all the same. It’s more like it’s one guy running them all, you always get some 15 years olds creaming themselves over the odd comment though so I suppose it’s whatever sells these days. Not my cup of tea but each to their own I guess.

 

Before I retired my old company had an extremely large social media team , they were all aged around 20. They had access to corporate media stuff via Twitter and fFacebook and they left an old fart like me standing . It was standard to err on the jokey side of company tweets. Apparently Virgin were the masters ?

 

Tenner Burns Unit Bet says we finish above you next season mate.

 

Marketing is all about moving with the times... So, of course, the staff will be younger and more in the know of current trends. That's good business sense

 

You need to find a new sport to watch because Angol celebrated as he normally does, we smashed you all first half and you were lucky it wasn't 3/4-0 and also the "penalty" was not even a foul outside of the box. You are bitter, we get it. Good luck next season with staying up

 

The staff are younger usually cos it's cheaper.

 

We're not a big club. Apart from the Geoffrey Richmond era we've always had the small club mentality. Who knows, we might start thinking big again one day?

 

Well that's a very polite whinge ! haha

I saw Angol dishing it out.
I came to two possible conclusions,
He may have been angered by one or two of your fans disrespecting the minutes silence.
Or talk in the dressing room may have been about Gibson, Patrick and one or two other city rejects giving it large at your gaff, so he felt fit to reciprocate.

City were clearly the better team on the day, as you were on the 2:0 defeat back in January
I felt the penalty was stone wall ( only seen it the once), however we've had many given against us, that were very soft.

Hopefully we'll play at your gaff on a Saturday next season, as I like the City, I may even stay over.

 

could not really see the penalty call , as i sit in the lower kop. We have had so many soft penalty's awarded against us and i can not honestly remember the last one we were awarded. If the ref was influenced by the crowd towards us, well its the first time, as they usually go the other way and decide to give most things against us to prove our larger crowds do not affect them, thus making the crowd size affect them. Referee's are decidedly average at our level.
Overall it was an enjoyable match for an end of season and nothing for either team but pride.
Good luck for next season.

 

I predict both Cumbrian teams to be relegated next season.

 

I didn’t know you liked fishing?
