Carlisle relegated

[The Reverend]

To the conference. Feel a bit sorry for them. Thought they were a nice club with a fantastic stadium. The staff were really pleasant as well. Can’t be easy for their fans having some of the longest away days in football. Hope they bounce back.

[Scuba Diver]

seconded.
Nice club to visit and always a nice welcome.

They will get local games like Truro City next season, just to rub their noses in it :-(

Morecambe also gone. Another nice club. It will be a long way back for them for sure.

The American ownership did not work for Carlisle then?

[Orient Punxx]

51 years ago they pipped us to the Premiership (L1).

[Chelmsford Swimmer]

Paul Simpson did extremely well to get them into division one. No surprise with a bottom half of division two budget Paul Simpson couldn't keep them up last season. In my opinion they correctly decided to retain Paul for this season, that lasted just four matches and he was gone. Perhaps they regret that decision now. We lost our first 5 matches this season, but fortunately our American owners were not so trigger happy.

[EliotNes]

They will be back in the EFL within a few years

[Max B Gold]

This is very bad news for Scotch O's.

[Qin]

ive always liked Carlisle, and feel a bit sorry theyve gone into the non league wilderness.

I'll watch out for their results next season, and hope they can get back

Yes it is but I hope we have some interesting trips to look forward to in The Championship - Sunderland and Middlesborough?

[Chelmsford Swimmer]

Had to smile, Barrow are now describing themselves as the only Football League Club in Cumbria.

[Loyal_Supporter]

Good riddance. Got stones, bottles and other things thrown at us when we were leaving Brunton Park after we drew in 21/22.

[EastDerehamO]

Always feel for any traditional EFL club relegated, we know what it’s like all too well.
Was delighted to see Barrow return eventually to the EFL, and I wish Carlisle as quick a return as they had when they previously dropped out. I note the top of the National League is packed with ex EFL clubs

Point of debate how long do you need to be in the football league to be a Traditional EFL club?

Yeah, has always been a pretty grim away day.

Good riddance.

[PKM]

It was a bit too cold up there for my liking. Left Devon in shirt sleeves, had to buy an ‘emergency’ jumper in Carlisle. And that wind, biting.

[cymruO]

What on earth were they thinking of when they appointed Mark Hughes?

[HackneyO]

To be fair to him if he’d had longer he’d probably have kept them up. Got half their points in just over a third of the games.

[Nurofen]

I'm still bitter about them beating us to that third promotion spot in 1974, so good riddance.

[cymruO]

I was at that last match against Aston Villa in 1974. We didn't blow it that night, we went through a bad patch, rather like the 5 defeats on the trot this season. If only we'd just won of those 5 .....
