The topic is: Carlisle United
**** You have room administration powers *****
cufconline> Hi there, who's that ?
>> mfaw has joined channel #XC.1228116
[mfaw] Hi, what's happening?
cufconline> Not much it seems...
>> PERTBLUE has joined channel #XC.1228116
[mfaw] Any reaction from Carlisle about this Clydebank nonsense?
cufconline> I've heard nothing from MK about it yet, officially
>> PERTBLUE has left channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> STV reports suggested MK liked the idea and was talking to this
- Sandy Moffat gadge about it
>> Gibby1 has left channel #XC.1228116
>> Gibby1 has joined channel #XC.1228116
[Gibby1] good morning all
[mfaw] Apparently it seems to be true that Whitehead wasn't injured but that
- Utd have received an offer.
cufconline> Good morning Mr Gibby
[Gibby1] Conference next year?
cufconline> Whitehead gave an interview on RC talking about the injury and
- saying he would be out for maybe 3 games
>> Perthblue has joined channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> Either Conference or Scots div 1
[Gibby1] Sorry state of affairs innit
cufconline> Personally I think we might get more to watch Conference games,
- esp. with derbies v Barrow...
[mfaw] How was yesterday's game?
cufconline> Very poor, Malc. Dick Tracey looked fast but with no great
- touch. Stevo taken off when he was playing quite well..
[Gibby1] Just been on United Clydebank Supporters page, they are refusing to
- deal with the bankies anymore
[Perthblue] I would like to know what`s going on!
>> paulclements has joined channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> Pitch was much firmer than usual. Too many passes were overhit.
- Midfield struggled. Attack lifeless except for Stevo.
[paulclements] I've just logged on and been told that this is an imposter
- room.....whats that ??
cufconline> And I see Bankies only mustered 300 fans for their game!
TO paulclements> Are you logged in via cufconline.org.uk address?
[mfaw] Pearson doesn't seem to look as interested as he did a few games ago
[Gibby1] The fans all hate the board, plus they are miles away from
- Clydebank
[PRIVATE FROM paulclements] i logged in via a link in one of chris
- mcfarlanes emails.....
cufconline> From the East Stand, NP looked to be standing there calmly, not
- getting in the least angry or anything
[Perthblue] He`s fighting with his hands tied behind his back
TO paulclements> That should be the right one - assuming it was the xoom
- address
[mfaw] He was much the same at Halifax, totally impassive
[Gibby1] After Knightons comments last week I'm not surprised
[paulclements] if you boys need directions to places like brechin and
- stenhousemuir then I'm your man !!!!!!!!
[Gibby1] I'll give you bayview
[paulclements] don't talk to me about east fife...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Gibby1] why?
[mfaw] What about the London Branch?
[paulclements] ....they beat us 1-0 yesterday
[Gibby1] EFFC won? bloody hell the Chairmans a pervert though
[paulclements] ...and anyway they don't play at bayview anymore....they now
- reside at the methil docks stadium
cufconline> Clydebank chairman talked about potential at Carlisle. Still
- thought Wimbledon would move to Dublin?
[Gibby1] It's still called bayview tho
[paulclements] nah
>> mfaw has left channel #XC.1228116
[Gibby1] 2000 all seater stand - the rest is block
[paulclements] carlisle might score a goal up here.........
[Gibby1] no problem
[Gibby1] They'll score at the docks afterwards as well
[Perthblue] How are we going to turn things around?
[paulclements] I'd say the 3rd division would be about their
- standard..........
cufconline> We have now not scored in three games, only 31 in 36 games. The
- worst total in Div3
[paulclements] aye
[Gibby1] We need a striker
[Gibby1] and a midfielder
cufconline> Transfer deadline day on Thurs I think. Bloke in the newsagents
- this morning was sure Dobie & Boertien were off
[paulclements] scarborough won.........oopss!!!
[Gibby1] more than likely
[Perthblue] iiiiii
cufconline> Not to mention Prokas and Stevens according to CK
[Gibby1] And a new board
[Gibby1] so no team left
[Perthblue] We`re in deep
[paulclements] wouldn't it be better if CUFC played in Scotland....whats the
- problem
[Gibby1] no way
cufconline> We could be fielding a youth team for the trip to Cardiff, then
- :(
cufconline> My poll was 118:22 against a move to Scotland
[paulclements] big derby against the doonhamers (QOS)
[Perthblue] Young kids won`t pull us through
[paulclements] why
cufconline> I'd rather play Barrow
[paulclements] on you go then
cufconline> Preferably in Div3, though
[Gibby1] I'd rather play Workington
[paulclements] I'd rather play Rangers
cufconline> Perhaps we should merge with Workington & Barrow and form a
- Cumbrian "superclub" ?
[Gibby1] I'd rather play Barcelona
cufconline> Wouldn't we all?
[Gibby1] good Idea Cumbria United
cufconline> There was talk of a Bury/Rochdale/Oldham merger this season
cufconline> Why not call it "Carlisle United" ? Good name, no ?
[Gibby1] that went down like a lead ballon though
[Gibby1] excellent!
cufconline> Fans never like mergers, it has to be said
[paulclements] carlisle/clydebank will never happen.....MK is
- mad...Clydebank are mad
[Perthblue] we are not going to have a club soon I reckon
[Gibby1] Takes away the individuality
[paulclements] Clydebank are a waste of space...no ground...no fans...whats
- the point
[Gibby1] MK should stick to UFO spotting
cufconline> There have been plenty of merger plans, none seem to have gone
- through
[paulclements] thames valley royals.....
[paulclements] reading/oxford
cufconline> Hearts/Hibs was talked of
[Gibby1] Bankies seem to see a club in trouble and try to merge, i.e
- livingston, Dublin and now us
>> Perthblue has left channel #XC.1228116
[paulclements] they flogged their ground and didn't have another one to move
- to...they deserve all they get
[Gibby1] Dundee/Dundee United
cufconline> Liverpool/Everton.....errmm..perhaps not
[Gibby1] nah
[paulclements] whats the mood like at the games....
[Gibby1] dunno
[paulclements] is their in discention in the ranks........
cufconline> Disgruntled
cufconline> Unhappy
[paulclements] in = any
>> Cyprochris has joined channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> Miserable
[Gibby1] about time
cufconline> Apathetic, even
[Gibby1] Knighton must go
[paulclements] where
cufconline> Just 2,560 yesterday - when Hull are getting 6,000plus
>> Perthblue has joined channel #XC.1228116
[Gibby1] to f***
cufconline> MK should resurrect "kids for a quid", perhaps "everyone for a
- quid"
[paulclements] Hull have spent money on players...so have the monkey
- hangers...so have borough....what do we get ??...more bloody loan signings
[Gibby1] free entry with the men in white coats
[paulclements] stevens for a quid
cufconline> CUFC pay you to come in?
[Gibby1] who are the monkey hangers
[Perthblue] Knighton makes me puke
[paulclements] the chimp chokers......
[Gibby1] he's a tosser
TO Cyprochris> Yo Chris is everything working your end ?
[Gibby1] enlighten me
[paulclements] Hartlepool....its an old story
cufconline> he wasn't at the game yesterday. Allegedly at Clydebank
[Gibby1] more than likely
[Perthblue] Why doesn`t someone like E.Stobbard step in?
[paulclements] that means the crowd would have been 201
[Gibby1] more sense
cufconline> Hartlepool - old story that they found a monkey washed up on the
- beach and hung it cos they thought it was a Frenchman
[Gibby1] MK wouldn't pay to go to a game
[Gibby1] Thick shits
[Perthblue] Something`s got to happen,and quick
[paulclements] 3 points at Darlo ???????
[Gibby1] 3 points anywhere
cufconline> Stranger things have happened. We need to score first, then we
- can start thinking about winning
[Perthblue] I don`t feel confident about us beating anyone at the moment
[Gibby1] I want to see us play the claret and blue trash next year
[paulclements] Is Pearson off...he hasn't had much of an impact as manager
>> Cyprochris has left channel #XC.1228116
[Gibby1] england U18's permanent?
>> Cyprochris has joined channel #XC.1228116
[paulclements] Ian McCall...he's the man
[Perthblue] Who can blame him?
cufconline> I'd like to see Pearson sign a contract and commit himself for
- next season
cufconline> Otherwise i could see him going off somewhere else
[Gibby1] dispose of knighton and bring merv back
[paulclements] nah
[Gibby1] Dave Mcreery?
[paulclements] bring back aidan mcaffery
cufconline> Nightmare!!
[Cyprochris] I'd like to see Knighton commit something else immediately
[Gibby1] like an asylum?
[Cyprochris] ANyway, afternoon chaps

[Gibby1] YES
cufconline> Ah Chris has been switched on at last
[Cyprochris] John Rudge owlsd be my choice

[Gibby1] Dario Gradi
cufconline> And I hear Chris balderstone's now local
[paulclements] Eileen Drewery
[Perthblue] It doesn`t matter who`s in the managers chair,Knighton would
- foul it up
[Gibby1] who?
[Cyprochris] I did not get out of bath until 1/4 past - i thought it was
- earlier - came on and got kicked off immediately - have i missed out?
[paulclements] no
cufconline> Malcolm Fawcett came and went
[Gibby1] Harry Greggs the man
>> nickgarratt has joined channel #XC.1228116

- cup final both live beamed to my houde

[Perthblue] I doubt it
[Cyprochris] If we went down (and I don't think we will), we would not get
- back up again

cufconline> 2,564 inc. about 100-odd Bees
[Gibby1] was sumo playing
[nickgarratt] do you know of any good curry houses in darlo?
[Perthblue] Better than I thought
[Cyprochris] Did anybody here about the Pay per View yesterday?
[Cyprochris] Sumo plays at Colchester
[Gibby1] since when?
[Cyprochris] About 2 wks ago
cufconline> No Sumo was not in the squad - still at Colchester I think
[Gibby1] or is it since the man who deserts a sinking ship went there
[Cyprochris] He hit the post against Man City
cufconline> And bounced back into play?
[Gibby1] then the bookies after it?
[Cyprochris] It was 7.90 to watch at home and £7 to get in Layer Road
[nickgarratt] family calls - see you next commentary
>> nickgarratt has left channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> City won 1-0 live on PPV Sky
[Cyprochris] L
[Gibby1] That is a bloody rip off
[Cyprochris] OL
[Cyprochris] s\dfvsdfbsfbsfg
[Cyprochris] \sdgsdggdg
[Cyprochris] sorry
[Gibby1] too much beer last night?
[Cyprochris] Ver clever though - Layer Rd holds 7000, Man City didn't know
- and asked for 8000 tickets
[Perthblue] I`m getting pretty depressed about our position,what can be
- done?
cufconline> Have Sky released viewing figures for first PPV game yet ?
[Cyprochris] Man C average 25000 at home but have huge away following, they
- were always going to make a kiling - expect Man City, Sunderland and Man U
- to be gullible enough to pay
[Gibby1] I spoke to a colchester fan up here a fortnight ago, he could take
- the ribbing though
[Cyprochris] DOn't know
cufconline> Heard a rumour that it was very low, even amongst Sunderland
- fans
[Cyprochris] Interesting
[Gibby1] The money's to buy MUFC though isn't it
cufconline> Put it this way, would you pay £7 to watch CUFC on the box ?
[Gibby1] no way
[Cyprochris] NEVER
[Perthblue] YES
[Gibby1] mind you, cheaoper than going to BP
[Gibby1] cheaper even
cufconline> So it should be
cufconline> It can never be the same as actually being there
[Gibby1] more atmosphere in the pub
[Cyprochris] Yes but part of it is the journey, the programme, the banter,
- the pastie and the disappointment of losing etc - tv it lasts 105 minutes
- and thats it
cufconline> And you don't get some loudmouth shouting in your ear all
- afternoon...
[Cyprochris] I gotta admit, Euro 96 in the pub I was in was effing superb
[Gibby1] I was in a jock pub
[Cyprochris] You don't know my wife!!!!!!
cufconline> I watched England v Italy at the Turf Inn, it was bloody torture
[Gibby1] WC was crap though
cufconline> That's what you think, Chris...
[Gibby1] ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh
cufconline> He's off to ask a few questions, folks :-)
[Gibby1] ouch
cufconline> Sorry 'bout the XOOMbar BTW
cufconline> It's a new thing they've started - in return for unlimited free
- webspace
[Gibby1] good idea though, keep it free
cufconline> And they're giving away computers up there, Chris...
[Gibby1] free my favourite word
[Gibby1] after lager
[PRIVATE FROM Cyprochris] H
cufconline> There's no such thing as a free lunch
[Gibby1] Down in carlisle last week, went to shaha for a curry, ghandis
- revenge next day
cufconline> Except if you hold up a restaurant
[Gibby1] hot hot hot
[Cyprochris] She says its all true but she can't remember it as she was
- asleep through most of it ;-P
[Gibby1] you'd probably get skewered
cufconline> That's what they always say
[Gibby1] getting personal now isn't it
[PRIVATE FROM Cyprochris] What was that about giving away computers - my pc
- was to slow to respond at the time
TO Cyprochris> Can you see the offer in the top right of window?
[Gibby1] chris i'll get a bokk from t'library and get details for grounds
[Gibby1] book
cufconline> I think the freebie PC's are only available in the States,
- though
[PRIVATE FROM Cyprochris] that will involve turning my graphics on - a bad
- idea as it woul be even slower -i will look later
[Gibby1] tight gits
>> Perthblue has left channel #XC.1228116
cufconline> And you have to conform to a required "customer profile" i.e.
- rich
[Gibby1] that rules me out
cufconline> And me
cufconline> I don't even pay for my season ticket
[Gibby1] jammy sod
[Gibby1] or should that be lucky
[Cyprochris] you nick it do u?
[Gibby1] mugs old men in the beehive
cufconline> My dad pays for it - because he's rich and retired

[Gibby1] worse than that
cufconline> what, you mean it's genuine?
[Gibby1] the company got done for selling 2nd hand hard drives as new
[Gibby1] silicone group
[Cyprochris] you should come over here - disk burning is a major business
cufconline> There's a bloke called malcolm Crellin I think sells 'em cheap
- from a garage nr Maryport
[Gibby1] alledgedly
[Gibby1] keep your eyes open for the old bill material
cufconline> Two people at work have bought off him and he does good after
- sales service
[Gibby1] i'm not asking 500, not 400 i'll give you it for 250
[Cyprochris] can you email his details?
