    Carlisle United Vs Everton - FA Cup 4th round - Sun 31st Jan - 13:30 KO

    Everton at a canter. A thoroughly professional performance from a very good side. Barkley and Lennon were a cut above today. For our part, I felt we got it all wrong. We started with 4 central midfielders, I'm guessing the plan was to make us competitive in the middle of the park...

    Carlisle United Vs Everton - FA Cup 4th round - Sun 31st Jan - 13:30 KO

    Rain has relented for now. Good bit of snow has fallen on the mountains in the Lake District, but at sea level the worst has been hail today. Should be good to go, though the pitch may not be in pristine condition by the end of it!

    Spot on, though your throwing arm sounds pretty impressive. It's raining. Heavily.

    Ref v Cufc

    The car park at the ground is closed due to the floods unfortunately. Limited street parking around the ground at the best of times but non-existent at the moment due to the presence of dozens of skips full of stuff damaged by the waters. Don't be tempted by the Tesco at the East end of...

    Ref v Cufc

    Hard to say. I live around 25 miles from Carlisle, in the eastern Lake District. It simply hasn't stopped raining here, rivers and lakes are overflowing once again. The flood warnings for Carlisle itself have been withdrawn, but more rain is forecast tomorrow and Saturday so the situation...

    Woman did a great job for us on loan when he was a youngster, hoping to see him on Sunday.

    Carlisle v Toffees

    No offence taken :) I'm back on the Warwick myself for Sunday, first time in years. Been in the East (Pioneer) Stand for most of the past decade but it sold out pretty quickly. You're in for a real old fashioned experience. The Warwick consists of terracing with a bizarre corrugated iron/tin...

    Another wet day in Cumbria. Tomorrow isn't forecast to be quite as bad but Friday is looking like trouble. Rain and wind through the day, turning to snow and ice at night...

    Carlisle v Toffees

    I'm one of those [Poor language removed] fans, though I come in peace... Which end are you in? Most of us are a friendly bunch but there are a few bad eggs, as there are everywhere. Where you are in the ground will dictate how much you can get away with in terms of revealing your 'true...

    Carlise tickets.

    Surface was very damp, seemed to take a lot of pace off the ball. Also some random bounces where bits of the turf were being kicked up. Challenges around the edge of the pitch seemed to kick up a lot of water. Our groundstaff are legendary in the lower leagues. The Brunton Park pitch is a...

    Potentially very bad news up here... http://apps.environment-agency.gov.uk/flood/34681.aspx?area=011FWFNC3A&page=1&type=Region&term=Northwest Brunton Park is slap bang in the middle of the area at risk...

    16,691 tickets sold according to the club, with just 151 tickets remaining to be sold. Torrential rain all day today, more forecast for tonight and tomorrow morning. Friday looks awful. Let's hope we aren't playing underwater on Sunday! If you have terracing tickets buy some quality...

    Around 1000 tickets remaining, should be gone tomorrow. First full house for around 8 years, since we were pushing for promotion to the second tier.

    Carlise tickets.

    We'd originally announced your allocation as 3,600. First any of us had heard of the 3,971 figure was on the sales update today. Our ground is up and running, but our offices and changing rooms are portacabins at the moment. The staff are making the best of a bad hand but to be honest there...
