what a man,what a story.Wonder if a carlise fan tonight will be able to say that.
Any Carlise fan at the game tonight i hold my hands up to you.
I bet every one of them is laughing on the way home and that is more than we are doing, 2 goals in their last 7 away games and surprise surprise, they score 3 at the Valley.
Spoke to a couple of Carlisle fans in the ROD before the game. They've got a few more long distances to travel. Half 6 start for them for the Brighton game. Credit to the amount they brought last night.
