Alfie McCalmont midfielder for Carlisle is set to leave the club although he is under contract. According to their manager he has asked to leave. They have had an offer and he could be leaving in the next few days. Is he on Orients radar. Good midfielder.

The final home match of the season was arguably Alfie McCalmont's best game all season long, netting a goal in a 3-1 loss to Wycombe Wanderers.

But what came before that has certainly made his position in the team look in doubt. He was suspected of being part of a small group of players who went out less than 48 hours before their Easter Monday game against Lincoln City.

These players were not named but were subsequently punished. McCalmont, alongside Jordan Gibson, were notably left out of the matchday squads for three consecutive games following an internal investigation by the club after the Lincoln match.

Discounting this suspected behaviour, he is quite far down the midfield pecking order, with arguably six players ahead of him, when fit.

He is in need of an impressive pre-season to try and get himself back in contention for the starting spots.

Yes, but he does feel better.

Sounds like just the guy for us then! 6 players ahead of him in the midfield pecking order from a side that was comprehensively relegated!

I did go past the ground earlier today and there was a definite aroma of Cart Noir around the place

Indeed. It doesn’t sound too inspiring.
