Watching Annan fc in their play off final now live on BBC Alba 2-0 half time 2-2 on aggregate, Matty Douglas stuck on bench with 3 other cumbrians,Charlie Barnes and Owen Moxon starting the game,got to say Moxon looks very strong at that level and we are now one short for the midfield

But if i had thought of this i would be shot down . popside posted about carlisle city.Nice to read about it but be careful what you post. ? Welcome back. Assuming you mean Garstang, You will note that Carlisle city thread was not just a dumped link which is all I pulled you up on. The OP expressed an opinion about Carlisle City which is fine, as a bonus he mentioned a current and former reds player and that they had beaten us in the previous round. Most forums from my experience die when they descend into OPs containing just Links to external stories, ive tried for years to keep this site going for its users at my own expense and never asked anything other than the members to use it for what it was originally created for, Discussing the reds, its not really here for any other purpose. If anything i could be way more draconian in deleting non reds content but im not. for sure i could have been less confrontational in this case for which i apologise, but you did not answer my points raised in the other thread so i dont feel the sarky comment was warranted here. Its an impossible job being an admin because you will always do something that pisses one side or the other off (See the Keithstoke debarcle a few years ago). And sometimes you do wonder what is the point in carrying on with it.

As words of encouragement to the admin(s) I am guessing is Ash. I really like this forum, and check it every day so please keep up the good work. I can imagine that it feels like a thankless take sometimes. Also, I have to say that I like the links which sometimes have interesting items that we may not pickup in living away from Cumbria. On Annan, I would love Matty Douglas back if there was any realistic prospect of getting him. Can’t believe he is on the bench , must be injured or something. Is it realistic that we can compete for these Annan players though? Not sure what their budget is like, but they have the chance to play at Rangers or Celtic every season, as per last season, which must be quite an attractive prospect. I was also looking at average attendances for last season and Lancaster was around 300 (2nd worst in their league) versus our average close to 800. So unsure how they can afford to steal some of our best players. I was talking to a friend who watches them and said Brockbank was their best player last season. Would love him back too

Would love him back too I don't think it's the money side of things that pulled Brockbank away. I'd imagine Lancaster is an easier journey for him and a higher level of football. Doesn't mean reds couldn't tempt him back with a bigger offer though.

Often in football it is about the challenge and next season will present such challenges in Reds league with Witton and Macclesfield expecting to lead the charge but optimistic Reds can overcome ! Think the way Danny G plays he will attract good players. Think after last seasons horrendous injuries we need a strong competitive squad from the off and wouldnt a good FA Cup run help to raise excitement levels with the supporters. Anyone know when draws are due to be made.

I know Matty has played mainly as a striker, but I believe he could be an effective midfield playmaker, as he can pick a pass well with both feet. He can chip in with a few goals too!

ex reds man Matty Tymon has left marske. would we go for him Matty left last time because of the travelling. I'd imagine Scarborough or Whitby again may be his preferred destination.

Carlisle United sign Owen Moxon on a 2 year deal from Annan, massive step up for the lad and would have loved to see him at the reds,a great example of a local player bouncing back from rejection and working his way back through local teams
