the_mighty_bosh Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Bit of an odd one to call this. With a full strength team I'd imagine we'd win fairly comfortably, but are all our loanees available to play? Add that to the obvious possibility that Placide won't play and it could be a tricky one. Carlisle will be physical so hopefully we can stand up to the challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmr Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Wellens did say about giving players a rest so I'd expect a few changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Let's hope not too many. We don't want another Dickov/Accy Stanley outcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laticsbiffo Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Can anyone tell me whether the away end at Carlisle is standing or sitting, i've not been before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShireBlue Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Sitting. Nice view of the Lake District though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Sinnott Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Lad who used to play for Springhead scored his first Carlisle goal at the weekend. Probably out to prove a point cos we turned him away a year or so ago on trial. Hope we go with a strong team to win the game - obviously a lot will depend on City, Wigan and Preston, but we need to line up as strong as we can, get the game won and then give our fringe players half an hour...

losesome Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 No easy cup games especially away. Would take a draw , we need a 3rd round cracker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al_bro Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I guess that we will get an indication of whether we have a chance of renewing loans in January if loanees are allowed to play or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't think of anything worse. Would feel like a fraud watching us play there by default. Would take a draw. Another Tuesday game I can get too, would be cheap, and realistically in the aim of getting to the next round isn't a bad outcome giving us home advantage.

Not saying that they're dirty necessarily, but Curle likes to play with big centre backs and at least 1 target man. Nicky Adams' crosses will be their biggest threat but we should exploit their lack of pace at the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
