Roger_Dubuis Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Carlisle are the masters of bad timing, their only season in the top flight being the only season in post war football the country's most popular club were in the 2nd tier.They got a big derby v Newcastle in the top flight but would have had a big derby v Sunderland and the big one v Man Utd if they had stayed in the second tier. Having to play Bolton the week after a pathetic home loss v Tranmere is also bad timing, Bolton sure to be up for it.Carlisle 1 Bolton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seem to remember you stood on old railway sleepers with cinders in-between. Pop Robson did the damage if I recall. I was only a nipper, on our way up to Aviemore, had an overnighter in Carlisle to take in this game. Id say about 1982 time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked it up &.....it was April 83, same season we beat them twice at home, but we were relegated. My memory of the game (possibly unfair ) was that Neil Berry was especially hopeless.

I went to that on official coach, one of my 1st aways that wasn't local. I remember us singing John McGovern's Super White Army for about 20 minutes non stop, the thrashing on the pitch seemed secondary. If it was now the players and manager would be getting dog's abuse. Our 3-0 home win at Christmas included the Jim McDonagh goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted December 24, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted December 24, 2020 Got a sneeking feeling that this game won't happen. Storm Bella on her way- very strong winds etc. Might be underwater again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played like a bag of shite that night, nearly crashed my van entering the M 6 on the way home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underpants Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 When McDonagh scored I don't think he went particularly mad with his celebration. Keepers union maybe. Tim Howard didn't even celebrate when he put one past Bogdan at Goodison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Take Hunt Off Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Went Carlisle in the Ian Greaves era .Got beat 3-2 they scored a late winner.It was very feisty on & off the pitch , not much segregation. It felt like a different country, Bulgaria or similar , but cold. Never been back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 As pointed out by a few others, yes Burnley. What I wouldn't give to stuff Burnley 3-0 in 2nd tier now with our goalie bagging one to really rub it in. It was a fortnight after beating Blackburn on NY Day, and we still had less than 9k on.
