Carlisle United (A) League 1 Saturday 21/1/12.

Worst stadium music of the season goes to.. Carlisle United. Playing the Grandstand theme tune... Can hear it loud and clear over Saddlers Player!
Oh and my prediction is Carlisle 2-1 Walsall.

[DanWalsallFC]

Carlisle 1-0 Walsall.
Sloppy play by 'Mr Reliable' Andy Butler. Tried to play his way out of danger and gets caught out, says Saddlers Player.
They're all over us, hit the crossbar too in the first 4 minutes..

As Yeovil have just equalised at Bury, we have dropped into the relegation bottom four :(

[Neuromantic]

We are going down.

Cannot believe there has been no investment in January so far. We can all see what is wrong, so WHY are we not doing anything about it?

Ask the club owner.........

edit - we're back above the line, as Bury take a 2-1 lead against Yeovil Town. :D

[brackley]

Went last week but couldnt get up there today..........apart from the goal, how are we playing?

It is an absolute joke mate, fudge me right off.

Well Carlisle have just hit the bar, again.

[Welsh_Saddler]

Half time and we're 1-0 down. I know I'm only following the game on the BBC website, but there has been no mention whatever of Macken or Nicholls - we've had shots on and off goal by Paterson and Taundry, and also the only 2 corners of the game so far both went to us. Isn't it time to bring Bowerman on for 45 minutes - we have nothing to lose at this stage.

Elsewhere, Barrowman scores for Dunfermline at Kilmarnock. The Baggies are 0-1 ahead at Sjoke, and Dingles are 2-1 ahead at home to Vile. Oh, and Blues 1-0 against Watford.

Just got back in from a day in the Trafford centre, (lots of pretty young things about the place again), to find weem losin again, now aint that unusual! :(
From the look of the BBC report theym all over us like a rash, so can't expect it to stay 1-0 for very long, if it had been 1-1 with possession 50/50, would expect it to stay that way..but now can't see better than a 2/3-0 defeat I'm afraid.

[Darth Vader]

Sign some fudge players Smith.

[Ancient Moaner]

Only crumb of comfort on the horizon is that Exeter are being dragged down into the relegation zone with us, can't see them avoiding defeat at Oldham, if so. that would be slightly better for us. Desperate times when we are relying on the discomfort of others for our ultimate survival, cus we certainly ain't doin much to improve the situation! :(

[DanWalsallFC]

I'm listening on Saddlers Player so my view of it obviously isn't as good as someone there, but, it sounds as if in the opening 10 minutes it was all Carlisle, hit the crossbar early on, scored an early goal too. Then we seemed to wake up, Patterson and Taundry having shots within quick timing of each other, Carlisle goalkeeper didn't do a job with either of them, spilt them both and has since gone on to make a mess out of another Patterson shot so hopefully he can spill a few more and we can grab a goal. Carlisle since hit the bar again.. Since the goal though I don't think there's been any major chances..

That's what I made of the commentary anyway!

Oh, I also text them with my concern over signings (lack of), the reply I expected though.. Smith is at games looking at a few players, he has others at games too and has one or two players in mind. Still, that's what is always being said, just like the same old Jeff Boner quote that 'the manager has money to spend' rubbish.

[Ancient Moaner]

Sign some jolly well players Smith.

What with, I think is the answer to that conundrum, I've got about £5 stashed away, would that help us sign a one legged
dwarf from Stotherts Pit Athletic!

As I've said before, Deano thinks that what we have will save us..........................Yeah! :oops:

[Welsh_Saddler]

No sign of any substitutes as the second half gets under way.....Deano must think we're OK as we are :?

[Tennessee Saddler]

The Baggies are 0-1 ahead at Sjoke, and Dingles are 2-1 ahead at home to Vile.

Thanks Welsh, following the Sads on here,rather than Sky or Beeb, whilst flicking between Fulham/Newcastle and Everton/Blackburn so as to avoid the scores of the above games which are being shown in full later.
Think I'll go out drinking instead now.... especially if the 2nd half at Brunton pans out as expected.

[Darth Vader]

WHY IS TAUNDRY STILL TAKING CORNERS?! He's fudge another one up, "low delivery".

Sort it out.

[DanWalsallFC]

George Bowerman on, Jon Macken off.

[Ancient Moaner]

Story of our lives my friend, we will be OK right to the very end......and back in the Fourth Division...I really don't expect any miracles today. :?

[DanWalsallFC]

Andy Butler hits the post! Lets hope this wakes us up a bit more and we can get at them. UTS!

[Darth Vader]

Butler hits the post, Smith passed it to him. :shock: :shock: :shock:

[Welsh_Saddler]

George Bowerman on, Jon Macken off.

I suppose that's an improvement on what Hutchings would have done (89th minute :roll: )

Attendance 5,051 - don't know how many brave Black Country souls made the trek.

[Darth Vader]

Between 100-150 the boring twerp on SP said.

[Ancient Moaner]

The thing is..it CAN be done..look at Coventry, havn't won a match since nearly as long ago as us, and theym 3-1 up against promotion contenders Middlesborough!

[Ancient Moaner]

Jarvis on!!!! now that IS desperation!

[Welsh_Saddler]

Jarvis on for Peterlin.
Andy Butler booked :roll:
Sjoke missed a penalty :lol: :lol: :lol: Dingles now 2-2 with Vile, Blues 2-0 against Watford.

In the games potentially affecting us, Rochdale are now 3-0 down at Wycombe, Yeovil 3-1 down at Bury. Chesterfield and Scunthorpe both winning, Exeter drawing.

[Darth Vader]

Cook on for Carlisle.

[brackley]

COME ON LADS...........NICK A GOAL

SAAAADDDDDDDDDDDDLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRSSSSSSSS!

[Darth Vader]

Peno!

[DanWalsallFC]

Penalty to Walsall!
