They were very lucky last season they got a "Diamond geezer" Striker on loan from Sunderland - this season Mr Diamond is on loan at Lincoln doing very well.Earlier in the season they had an infestation Of Huddersfield loanees - I am sure without the time to check that they have more thab the maximum loanees allowed to start on the team sheet.As I have said plenty of times already on here the Carlisle center hald cooly passed the ball into his own net in the 81st minute to give the "Smelly" Sulphurites an unlikely win. Basically that win Stinks !!!! They even play away in Sulpur yellow shirts !!That "gift win " was their only win in their last six their laughable winner is always worth a re-watchhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8m5w6VcvL4Again this season they have got one decent loanee striker can't remember his name So expect a Battle of the Alamo match as they try to hold on to the point they start with.
If we can’t score 3+ goals in this game, then we really are rubbish
If rovers lose this, and don’t put in a half decent performance, the knives will be out, so to speak, more than previously this season.

It's obvious to anyone living in the real world that we've no chance of making the play-offs. This squad is nowhere near good enough to get the amount of points now needed to do that.However, the team still needs to perform to a decent level over the remaining games to convince the waverers that it's worth buying a ST for next season.I've got mine, because I'm daft as a brush, but if the team finishes the season poorly, the ST revenue for next season could take a massive hit.
The lone striker issue is what kills DS and his system for me.No-one, Haaland,Zlatan or even Shearer, playing up top solo and yards away from any support would be scoring regularly in our side - and with respect to both George and Lavery - they are not physical at all and rely on channel balls etc to use their pace and get on the end of things. It dosen't matter which of them - or even Agard - there's no chance for the guys.But equally importantly, what about entertainment ?? In this system there is certainly precious little of that.Getting out of this league is simple enough - with the right approach anyway - we desperately need an Andy Cook type of proper centre forward and then the likes of George and Lavery,playing off him would have a field day - add Hurst and Moly to that spearhead and we would piss this league.Is it really so hard to see ??
We're going 'Full throttle' according to DS so we should be in for some high tempo footy and some excitement to keep us warm!
f**king hell this is a bad result.
