Won on penalties

Rochdale's top scorer Emmanuel Dieseruvwe has a third National League promotion final win.
He has done it with Grimsby and Salford previously.
Proven National League player. Let's get him signed!

We won’t be able to afford his wages.

Interesting to see we had connection with both sides Jason Taylor at Rochdale and Booty and White these players may come back to haunt us next season.

Funny old game the millions that Carlisle have spent over the last few season and their fans are creaming themselves over the thought of signing Tom White in the summer

Wow, Tom White! All they need is Pete Wild as manager and they’ll be sorted…

Oh wait…

Could have been good playing York & Rochdale in the league but we just thrown our league status in the bin, not to worry always Worthing & Hornchurch.

Since when did they become such juggernauts? They’ve just come out of none league not the premier league

Worthing will give us a good hiding too.

Names don’t matter anymore. Remember, Bromley are a League One side!

All about the money now.

We don’t have a lot so have to be clever with our signings, and please make good use of the loan system! It has been ghastly and cost us recently.

Borham look a decent outfit with a decent manager.

If there was ever a model, that is it.. pure passion and determination!
Hope our board are looking for someone like their gaffer, someone with fight and desire that can galvanized the squad as one.

If they keep their players, they will be there or there abouts next season.

unity is key.. this season was a disfunctual as you could ever get..

This should spur our board and fans to believe that it's not impossible to get out of this league if Rochdale can do it surely we can but we must look forward not looking at signing back players who either left or we got rid of !

Looking at Rochdales finances , kids of Sir Peter Ogden (billionaire) bought the club, partnered with long term sponsorship of multi millionaire company Crown Oil, and they still didn’t finish top. We’re not even in the same stratosphere. Reality bites in this league unfortunately.

An unfortunate truth.

We can’t compete with other club’s finances.

Paul Hornby said in an interview with Adam on Radio Cumbria following the Rochdale friendly last close season that their budget wasn’t far off twice what ours was. No coincidence the top three in this years National league were the three sides with biggest budgets
