The abandonment of the Grays game last night certainly caused some confusion amongst the crowd. Why was there no electrician on site when they had a floodlight failure last week ? I know we were losing and playing poorly but this is another example of where the fans are big losers.
Rumours that the Grays replay would take priority over the Millwall game next week, proved unfounded as the decision is to play at Grays on the 2nd round day - Saturday 29th Novemeber. Don't be surprised if it's an early kick off.....

After a 70 day wait we got a deserved victory through a high tempo performance against Brighton, that put the smile back on Carlisle fans faces. Gregg Abbott's post match interview said it all, even though he had nearly lost his voice - the desire has returned.
