You coming to Carlisle or what?

[Stanley Bowles]

Right im up and up and off to the dam fine border city of Carlisle ,anyone care to join us. I do believe there is a cheeky little cup clash between the Cumbrians and the Shrimps. So follow me to the promised land ,i feel it will be a goodday had by all(also theres a little matter of football match to settle to) Ill be in the Cally ph at 11, thats the one at the top of Botchergate as you come out of the station .Just enjoy your day whatever the result see you there.

Record away following this season for the blues is 1014 v Norwich City lets see if the Shrimp Army can surpass that, it would be nice

[Blackpool Shrimp]

500 to 600 tops

[Shrimpman]

200 max

not exactly a "glamour tie" & only 2 wins in the league

Norwich took over 1000 all the way to Carlisle? We will struggle to beat that figure, but 600+ would be nice.

Weather isn't looking great which might put-off a few. According to the Beeb it is sunny up there though...

Had planned to, but really can't afford the petrol given my circumstances.

Will have to make do with Ockers....and Player plus Radio Cumbria for continuous coverage!

Myself and 3 others setting off in ten minutes, see you there

Free balloons, come find me, look for last seasons home goalkeeper shirt (the orange one )

Presently sat on a train just arriving in Hexham. The only way this tie could have been easier to get to would have been to draw Gateshead away

[Blackpool Shrimp]

According to carlisle official board we had 551 there (good guess by myself 500-600)
