I don't think that you can rely on the previews to give a complete and accurate picture of who is or isn't injured/ill/available. Matt likes to keep his cards close to his chest to keep the opposition guessing as to our line up.

Superb win. Well done the team & management & everyone making that 66o mile round trip. Now let's hope we get a good draw in the Papa John's!

Great win today. That's the way to win an away game - win it in the first half and then make sure you keep a clean sheet. Terrific. Following today's results, for the first time this season, I'm allowing myself to accept that we're out of reach of Scunthorpe and Oldham at least - so we're going to be an EFL Team next season - and at the start of the season that was the primary target. Looking onwards and upwards now.

Fantastic stuff. Great to get another clean sheet. A nice run of 3 home games in a row now, we’re in very good shape ahead of them. Well done team, management and the mad ones travelling all that distance.

Being there to watch a performance like that live and sharing it with the other fans, players and management team is just so worth it! |

Can't really downplay a 2-0 away win, though I thought Carlisle, in the first half at least, were really poor (despite hitting a post). Our opener was a great poacher's goal from Tanto who pounced on a short clearance. Lovely move for the second, Richie Bennett setting up David A for a cool finish. Richie had a great game, getting back when needed to help out the defence.
That's our second double of the season, after Colchester. We seem to have the Indian sign over clubs beginning with C!
Most of the leading clubs won today, and we stay 4th (Newport having overtaken us with their midweek win). Forest Green's 4-0 win at Tranmere (2nd v 1st) will have raised a few eyebrows, especially as Tranmere have the best defensive record in League Two.

Yep great result for FGR, it would take a monumental collapse for them not to fill one of the automatic places now. Don’t need much more than a point a game - given their record to date it seems hugely unlikely they won’t do enough.

Just watched the highlights of our game on Skysports.com. David took his goal superbly. What a player he has become. Enzio missed a great chance to score a third goal near the end.

Today was worth every one of those miles. 2 0 didn't do us justice. It could have been 4 if the rub of the green was a little better for Bennett and Enzio shot literally anywhere else. What I saw today a swagger in our play that I've not noticed since possibly as far back as Colchester away. Whilst we've ground out great results since then, we were dominant and we knew it. The move prior to our 2nd goal was almost taking the piss.
Note about Carlisle. Lots of little things I witnessed today gave me the impression of a club with class. The minutes applause being the most obvious example.
My player of the day. Ritchie Bennett. A handful all day, superb assist for Daves goal and some good back up defending. He obviously enjoyed winning at one of his old clubs!

The very excellent commentary team alluded to the chant but I couldn't hear it... So, err, can you sing it to me Andy?
