Carlisle (A) match thread - 1st Jan

Featured Replies

Yet again Crosby takes off our best player, Wilson, far too early, when we were on top. Totally changed the game. Sick of it.

You always go to far to be fair 

Were all pissed off with that but in all fairness we got what we deserved 

 

How have I gone too far? I don't rage at anyone here who has a completely different opinion to myself. As I've said before, we have a manager who is far better as a number two, a DoF who blagged his way into a role and an owner who has been making some poor decisions for a while. There are massive issues at the club and some people seem to be perfectly okay with it.

Don't bring on Balmer - he's rubbish. 

I’m not an AC fan but in all fairness, I’d have brought on a defender to try and protect what we had. Unfortunately it’s the quality of defenders that we have that’s a concern

In fairness, Wilson, despite being a professional footballer for many years now, is blowing out of his arse after 60 minutes and has to be taken off.

Any credit Crosby gained from the Blackpool result has quickly evaporated. He needs to go as does Smith.

The club is not rotten from top to bottom as u put it so in my opinion again your going way over the top

Protect what? The point against bottom of the league. It’s embarrassing.

Uche had a very good game though. 

Port Vale the charity that keeps on giving on and off the pitch.

Very poor display except 5 mins each half. Young lads looked out of place today which is no criticism because it’s what you would expect really.

What has bugged me all season  and today is our negative mentality when we score. No urgency or conviction to go and get a 2nd goal.

I can’t believe after watching our defence for half a season we still think we can sit back and soak  up pressure to keep a clean sheet.

Done nothing to convince me Crosby is the right man for the job.

Lightweight throughout the team barring Uche who is not really a footballer. You could see it coming, time and again we do this. Get some strength and height in the midfield and defence. Our team on the pitch at the end of the match wouldn't win a game in this division

Exactly this. How many times do our players get knocked off the ball or have an inability to run past someone?

I lost count the amount of times Chislett got blown off the ball.

None of the defence (other than perhaps Debrah) are physically intimidating. 

None of the midfield has the ability to defend and break up play. Especially when we need better game management. 

We don’t have one player that possesses pace and directness out wide.

Well, rotten probably is hyperbole which I have a knack for. But there's certainly glaring issues.

Whose on Radio Stoke now saying we played really well

Overall Carlisle completely deserved win game .

Vale played like they were on the ale last night .

A very poor showing got what they deserved a beating 

To be honest Carlisle deserved by  4 or 5 goals .

I see Smith's had his good game now and back to his usual useless self 

Poor poor display .

Credit to Carlisle deserved winners as for Vale well if that's the best you can do against bottom of the league I have to ask the question why you bother .

Has Crosby got a son?
