I dont want to panic yet only 4 games in we haven't been battered but struggle to score yeh its a new side virtually but so are many sides so no excuse really I still think were suffering a hangover over from relegation and have that losing mentality I dont know what we can do but we didn't deserve...

Good teams can play badly and still get a win, or at least a draw. It is concerning when the overall performance is decent and we still get beat. Results such as this must suck out what little confidence remains in the players.

No disrespect to local players but was there really any benefit in an academy? Especially when we needed to build a team to try and compete in the league and find that. People talk about local talent but I’m yet to see anyone really tearing it up at any level other than perhaps Workington and Holke...

The interviews remind me of the ones that Paul Simpson used to deliver on Radio Cumbria when Carlisle were getting beaten week in week out.

Jeez mon, nobody can be that dour, without prescribed medication.

Not so much the tone, but the content.

Let’s look at it another way if Andy Whing was an artist then realism would be his brand. He puts it down as it is warts and all. Yes it can be graphic, not pretty to see but it’s as true to life as he can be. I would rather have an honest assessment coming from AW than the usual hyperbolic nonsens...

But 2 of those teams are next door to some big teams, and Fleetwood has a population of only around 27000 and its close to Blackpool. We don't have any league teams anywhere near us. What's Barrows population, around the 55,000 mark. So an average gate of around 3,000 for Barrow isn't that bad when...

I'd be very surprised if Luke Armstrong is allowed to go on loan in January. We've got Charlie Wyke out for the season and Georgie Kelly is very injury prone. Would be insanity to let another striker go out on loan. He might have been dropped last week, but I get the impression Williamson still rat...

Like to see two Strikers in at least🙏 Chris Conn-Clarke hasn’t made the breakthrough since moving to Peterborough in the summer so they might allow a loan. Only seen Linney a couple of times and he impressed me, he definitely won’t come cheaply though as Alty still have aspirations of play offs. At...

Bradford City are invariably overrated, season in season out because they've got they've had some success over the decades, a big stadium and they get good attendances. Realistically though this game should be pencilled in as a decent chance of three points.

3 points in 9 games. Obviously you are happy with this. Always best to look back on yesteryear and hope is it. Facts are facts. Not good enough If we were playing awful I would be concerned but the facts are we are not playing badly. Even Paul Cox in his post match summary Said the best team lost t...

We play a English 3rd Division team the week after will be interesting to see the difference in both teams/games. The third tier of Spanish football is split geographically into two leagues of 20 or so teams, so you might argue that the comparison should be made to both our L1 and L2. Those 3rd lev...

On the other hand both Fleetwood and Carlisle managed to get draws against opposition of a similar calibre.

Carlisle also drew with Workington the other night,does anyone actually care?

True.

No surprise with the scoreline. A Scottish premiership side who have qualified for Europe playing an EFL 2 side who are only 3 weeks into pre season. Kilmarnock start their European campaign next week. On the other hand both Fleetwood and Carlisle managed to get draws against opposition of a simila...

It's arguably the worst possible time to lose a manager. as there is no one in place to co-ordinate pre-season recruitment.

Omari Patrick When asked about Omari Patrick at a recent meet the supporters session Paul Simpson was quoted as follows: "I'm not expecting Omari, it's a strange one, he wanted me to guarantee that he would play as a winger. I won't ever guarantee that. With the shape it can change, so I can't...
