Johnnyrotten Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 If you're in Derby's shoes (and of a nervous/pessimistic nature), you'd now be thinking that there's every chance Posh Peterborough United can lose by 3 to us on Saturday. Maybe they are just 5% more worried than they would have been, that they really can't afford to go a goal down on Saturday because its no longer as far fetched that we get the result we need, if Posh are only concerned with avoiding injuries.

Lt. Aldo Raine Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Yeah, I'm not sure why Posh would have any motivation to put a performance in I know it could be a good warm up if they also end up playing us in the play-offs, but they've forfeited third place tonight so they might as well stick with their plan and continue to rest players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to win, Derby to lose and a 4 goal swing, any which way. If we only win 1-0 but Carlisle turn Derby over 3-0 then we go up. Just needs to be 4 goals as we’ve got higher goals scored which is the next measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderlust Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Great game tonight. Posh's squad players have a decent pedigree, but the Robins tore into them and could have won by 5. Come on Carlisle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomski Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Carlisle lost to Workington in the Cumbrian cup tonight. Workington had lost previous 7 before this which makes me think it’s easy to get to the final ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have just lost to a relegation threatened team. Have a go first half then see what the derby score is at HT, just act accordingly.

It’s embarrassing Bit harsh mate. Don’t think anyone is. See my earlier posts which explain what I imagine is most people’s opinion on here who are having a bit of banter exclaiming a faux type of excitement. It’s a bit of fun for crying out loud, don’t have to come on here calling us cunts! 🤣 A 100/1 shot which is worth at least cheering on, even though you know how unlikely it is to happen.
