There you have it, so we can’t compete with Carlisle🤷‍♀️would have been a great addition. Sums it up really
Who knows, we might have somebody better already lined up . Richie said a couple of players should be coming in so let’s wait and see who we get.

statement signing for Carlisle's new owner. They also anticipate a relegation fight, so that's a big boost.

Read today that he has already been signed by Carlisle and is training with them. He will be available to play on Jan 1st.The club have paid a fee that is a lot less than what Wrexham agreed in August

Lots of people are watching a couple of the Aldershot boys with a lot of interest. Their manager is doing an incredible job.

You can sign a pre contract agreement that ties you to your new club but he can't play until January.

Stokes Tolaj & Barham 35 goals between them
Hardly surprising they are being looked at.

Carlisle are banking on Armstrong being able to score enough goals to keep them up.
That's risky
If love to know what he cost them
He's pretty much untried at league 1 level
Good luck to them

Carlisle have new owners who are willing to spend big in the transfer window. According to their manager Paul Simpson he wants 5-6 players to keep them up.

This is the thing to keep in mind when certain elements of the fan base think we'll "be fine" leaving the squad as-is. We need those two attacking players already mentioned to be quality plus any changes that come about as a result of players heading out the other direction
