Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

We prefer your comments Dav,much more controversial and mentally challenging.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

We can only hope.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

3 points please !

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Come on THE STANLEY.
Let's see the boys take thre points today off a much BIGGER club.
I seem to recall watching Carlisle v Burnley in the old Division 1 in the seventies in front of about 17,000 people!
ON STANLEY ON

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Good luck to stanley today from the abu dhabi supporters club

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Mingoia not even on the bench. Coley says he wants his players to give 100%. He always gives 110% Seems he is out in the cold. Mind you Carver also absent, so it seems we have an embarrassment of riches!

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Asamoah scored for Carlisle

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Carver on bench.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Accrodign to BBC

Carlisle 9 shots
3 on target

Stanley 4 shots
0 on target

No wonder we havent scored.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Glad I chose to stop at home I missed an awful display by us apparently.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

What we need, and have needed for years, is a big, strong, pacy centre forward who can put the ball in the net. Surely there is one knocking about in the lower leagues that we could take a chance on? Oh, I forgot, we have Carver, but he never gets a decent run in the team to prove himself. Someone who can belt the ball into the net from around the box would do. Someone like Kevin Ellison, if I may be so bold!

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

According to radio Lancs we deserved nothing from the game and Carlisle should have won more convincingly.
There was also a question mark over Carlisle goal being offside.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

A bit of karma for Nas and the lads.

Stay classy Stanley.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Pretty fair assessment that, but for our keeper it could've been an embarrassing scoreline. On way back now & only saving grace is it's not a long trip home :rolleyes:

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Was like watching a pub team today, shocking!! The goal was a good 2 yds offside imho, the liner was nowhere near up wi play.:rolleyes: as bad as anything ive seen this season, no threat up front, the only one who looked like doing anything "Naismith" was taken off by "Super Johnny Coleman":eek: The young keeper is the best ive seen this season of Stanleys many, but fer him they coulda declared.:eek: If we play like this on Tuesday,kiss goodbye to the F.A. Cup.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Sunday's MOM on the bench, top scorer still on bench, what is colemans obsession with Maguire and McCarten - can't see it, both of them do something decent once every 3 games - NOT ENOUGH.

Kal sadly looks nowhere near yet after his absence and what the hell happened after Moly came on; whatever the idea of a system (4231) went out of the window and we ended up with Moly on the right, OSullivan on the left (our only threat 1st half) resulting in 4 forward players within the width of the centre circle and Deano trying to play right wing.

To paraphrase a popular character from a sitcom: Tactical Genius my arse!!!

really poor, score line could have been much worse.

Said it weeks ago Deano needs to play centre back and Gray needs to start.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Did Gray not start last sunday? n was shocking, I would prefer to start Carver, at least that lads got fight in him. Moly is nothing like the player of 2 yrs ago n fer me has done sod all since his return.McCarten today was very poor imho.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

You're right DAV.....Coleys a football genius.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Agree with most of that Frank but I think Carver should be starting and if he doesn't want Liddle in defence try him as an attacking midfielder.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Back from 11 days in tenerife,sounds like I didn't miss much !!!.
Did anyone (besides keeper) have a decent game??

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

We lose one game and chubbyman and cashman can't help themselves.

Get behind the team.

After the beattie debacle we are finally going places, let's see what happens Tuesday and next Saturday.

I agree about giving carver a start although I do think he is an effective sub when defences are starting to get tired; but Gray has had his chance and didn't deliver.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

We were behind the team, we were yon. if there crap i will say so, if good i did last sunday, where were you?:rolleyes:

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

At least we go to the games DAV. Home and away.. So I think we're entitled to criticise ,believe me bar for the goalkeeper not one player earned their wages.As for the Beattie debacle as you put it pray tell who was the manager when the betting scandal at Bury occurred.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Hunty was putting in a decent shift until he was subbed (because of injury).

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

It's a while since we failed to score in a league game so I suppose it was coming.
Surprised Kai got a start tho, when did he return to training ?,missed a few weeks of posts !!!

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

I think it's nearly two weeks,thought he was doing ok till subbed,got lots of headers in.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

And drop Tom or Rob?? :confused: No way!!

As others have said, surely Carver needs to start.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

No one has mentioned the woeful performance of our midfield who were totally bossed by the lively youngsters making up Carlisle's engine room. Our Captain couldn't see the possibility of making a telling pass ....forwards that is , as opposed to sideways or backwards !, and Andy Proctor was way off the pace !.
As to the 'shape' adopted for today's miserable offering,I doubt if Football19in all his wisdom could have made any sense of it !.
The defence were for once somewhat unsure of their task today , a worrying omen for Tuesday night's task against an attack minded Notts County.
On the bright side we've got a young Goalkeeper with quick reflexes and a skilful reading of the game.His contribution meant that we were not looking at a 5 - 0 scoreline..at least !
It was all in all an afternoon to forget BUT......the Pies ( Not Chicken Balti !) were tasty and good value at £2.50, and Accymad's Cheese Pie looked appetising also !..
With this news from the catering front ended, all I have left to hope for is a different display from the genuine Reds on Tuesday night .

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

You know I don't like to contradict you Alan but the pie in question was of the cottage variety not cheese, & it was indeed very moreish - probably the highlight of the day tbh :)

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

It was obviously much better than it looked.:D

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

I have to agree with you Cashy on Moly looks a shadow of the player he was and poor Mingoia frozen out time to give Moly a break and maybe put Liddle up front on left and give Mingoia a place on the bench.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Only going off what my nose was telling me !..... So wait and watch !.:rolleyes:

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Didn't see the game but, from Professor Coleman's comments, it sounds like Stanley could have done with some of the 100% commitment that Mr. Mingoia always seemed to give. If he is fully fit, I think he's a good option and don't understand why he has 'disappeared'.
But it's a long way to go and maybe, once the loanees have come and gone, as they tend to do, some of the contracted players will get their chance.
As ever in footie, though, the lack of a real threat up front is worrying for any team.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Heard the lads been poorly, dunno how accurate that is? He was on bench at Notts i recall, but nowhere to be seen on pitch pre-match? If thats the case, i never seen the lad give less than 100%. so hope hes on the mend.

Re: Carlisle (A) Match Thread
 

Exile.....Piero trained with the squad today?
