This will be our final match in the Central League cup this season.
We can't qualify for the play offs.
As for the Central League, it seems a bit odd. We've already played 3 matches and there appears to be only another 4 games to play. Making a total of 7. There are 5 teams in the league, including us. Therefore 4 adversaries, home and away = 8 games.
The games we've got to play in the league are as follows:
Tranmere - Home - Yet to be rearranged (Original game postponed) 3rd March Huddersfield - Away
17th March Fleetwood - Away
31st March Fleetwood - Home | |

Will Chris Beech be visiting?
Will Nick Anderton get some game time for Carlisle? | |

I think the answers are yes and yes.
I've just found this article:
New Carlisle Utd signing to get first outing today as Blues continue hunt for more
Chris Beech will take a first look at Nick Anderton in a Carlisle United shirt today as the Blues continue their efforts to make more signings.
The left-back will face his former club when the Blues go to Blackpool in this afternoon’s Central League Cup reserve game (kick-off 2pm).
It will give Anderton the chance to build up his match fitness ahead of first-team involvement. Anderton joined from the Bloomfield Road club last week and was an unused sub in Saturday’s draw at Oldham.
Beech hopes the 23-year-old will benefit from today’s run-out having missed recent months with injury.
Asked how much game time Anderton would need, the Carlisle head coach said: “He’ll need some — he’s been out for a bit, not just [in terms of] playing for Blackpool, but he’s recovered from an injury, which has enabled us from a business perspective to recruit him.
“We’ve done very well, and worked hard with Blackpool to make sure a player of his quality could come to our club.
“He comes with League One experience, as well as great non-league experience at Barrow. He’s been a transferred player — Blackpool paid a lot of money for him — and he was excellent last season for 22 [league] games at Accrington.
“It was in the first half of the season after they had got promoted — they were in the top half of League One, then he got recalled and wasn’t really used.
“I’m really pleased we’ve got a player like that — he’s young enough to go again.”
Beech may use today’s game to cast a further eye on Joshua Kayode, the Rotherham loanee who made his debut as a sub at Oldham.
Those out of the side, including Mo Sagaf and Jack Iredale, are likely to figure.
It also remains to be seen how many of those recently omitted from the matchday squad completely will get an outing against Simon Grayson’s second string.
United are still trying to bring more players in with 10 days left in the transfer window, while the Blues would like to move on some of those currently out-of-favour, including certain loanees.
Beech admitted it was not a straightforward situation and said: “If the lads aren’t gonna be playing I’m sure they don’t really want to be here.
“But at the same time, everybody — while they are here and representing us, and get paid by us — have to do their jobs, that’s where we are at the moment.
“Like I said about recruitment, it’s the same with [this]. They are in contracts; it means [parent] clubs that own their contracts have to recall them.
“If they don’t recall them, that’s because they’re more or less saying they don’t want them, and they’re their players.
“We’ve got to try and find that balance between it all. I want any young man playing football, but I can only pick 11.”
Second-bottom Stevenage, meanwhile, added to their squad yesterday with the signing of former Norwich striker Simeon Jackson, who recently left Kilmarnock. [Post edited 21 Jan 2020 11:37]

Cheers Spell.
Well I'd like to see Larry use the excuse "not up to match speed" "need more game time" or "not match fit" now, totally bizarre. | |

It's not a reserve team.
It's a youth team.
OK, if the manager doesn't want a reserve team, so be it.
Grayson's obviously decided there's other, better, ways of doing things now.
It's less interesting for us though. | |

Good work spell. I must confess to be totally perplexed by our set up at the moment. | |

Carlisle have got a senior team out and, for example, I'd have thought the following players needed game time:
Edwards
MacDonald
Thorniley
Ward
Kaikai
Scannell
Ronan
Nuttall
Madine
It must be judged more beneficial nowadays to have the players in training. | |

New signing Anderton makes first Carlisle Utd outing in reserve victory over Blackpool
Blackpool 0 Carlisle United 3: Nick Anderton completed his first hour in a Carlisle United shirt as the Blues enjoyed a comfortable reserve win against a young Blackpool side.
New left-back Anderton played for 60 minutes against his former club before being replaced.
The game, at Squires Gate, saw Anderton build up his match fitness ahead of first-team involvement for United.
Goals from Jack Bridge, Tom Wilson and Jayden Major earned victory in the Central League Cup game, but there was an injury concern when midfielder Mo Sagaf limped off with eight minutes to go.
It was a much more experienced United team than that fielded by the League One outfit, with Carlisle including six of last summer’s first-team signings.
Bridge, Sagaf, Olufela Olomola, Nathaniel Knight-Percival, Christie Elliott and Canice Carroll were involved, having all been out of first-XI favour recently.
Carlisle — their team taken by academy boss Eric Kinder, with head coach Chris Beech arriving to watch during the first half — had the better of the first half without creating many clear chances until Bridge fired them in front.
They lined up with Olomola as a central striker with Charlie Birch and Bridge wide left and right respectively, and Taylor Charters playing behind the frontman, Carroll and Sagaf deeper in midfield.
Charters sliced a shot well wide after 10 minutes with Olomola having a later effort blocked after bringing down a ball from Carroll.
United then went ahead when a Birch cross was only cleared as far as Bridge, and he sent a well-taken shot into the top corner of the net from the left.
Birch then sent a cross just over Olomola’s head at close range, the striker then drilling just wide and Charters going close with a deflected effort.
Blackpool’s young side struggled to test Blues keeper Louis Gray, with Birch at the other end failing to get a clean finish on Carroll chip.
After the break, Olomola somehow failed to convert a Birch cross from close range, before Anderton’s flick-on from a corner saw Knight-Percival fire straight at the keeper.
Anderton, who enjoyed a largely comfortable afternoon at left-back, then tried his luck from 25 yards, firing a shot wide of the target, before the former Barrow man was replaced on the hour mark by youth team player Liam Lightfoot.
Ten minutes later the Cumbrians doubled their lead when Olomola was fouled on the left, and youth defender Wilson timed his run well to meet Carroll’s inswinging free-kick and head past keeper Jack Sims.
Owen Watkinson came close to pulling one back for the hosts but sent a low shot across Gray and narrowly wide from the right.
Sagaf was then hurt in a challenge with a home defender and went off with eight minutes to go, his replacement Jayden Major making it 3-0 moments later, the youth forward arriving to finish after Carroll’s diagonal ball to Christie Elliott had seen another sub, Jamie Armstrong, try to force the ball home.
United: Gray, Elliott, Anderton (Lightfoot 60), Knight-Percival, Wilson, Bridge, Sagaf (Major 83), Carroll, Birch, Olomola, Charters (Armstrong 77). Not used: Robinson. | |
