The topic is: Carlisle United
kynson> Oh yeah !-)
[Gibby1] morning dave
[Gibby1] 3-0 to the cumbrians
kynson> what a result :-)
kynson> were you there?
[Gibby1] Was it a good game?
kynson> It was pretty good
[Gibby1] no I was up here working
kynson> knight looked good
kynson> bass and tracey played well
[Gibby1] There were three of us in her yesterday
kynson> that all?
[Gibby1] here I mean
kynson> anyone commentating?
[Gibby1] no
[Gibby1] just via teletext
kynson> i am hopefully going to scabby tomorrow
[Gibby1] I wish Hull had beet them yesterday
[Gibby1] bez\
[Gibby1] sorry,
kynson> there was talk of real audio feed for local radio on the web. i can't
- remember where we heard it
[Gibby1] beat
[Gibby1] I have just woke up so the typing will be poor
kynson> i was out at buskers last night, so _everything_ is poor this morning
- ;-(
[Gibby1] Buskers busy?
kynson> the town was, and i thought buskers would be heaving, but it wasn't
- full. you could still move about.

kynson> Yo !-)
[Gibby1] Morning Al
[cufconline] Hi everybody
[Gibby1] Staying up Staying Up
kynson> no one would believeeeeeeeee us - the blues are staying up!
[cufconline] Who was there yesterday?
[Gibby1] not me i'm afraid
[Gibby1] I was here
[cufconline] Missed a good game, Gibby
[Gibby1] I usually do
[cufconline] Pacy Tracey did for Torquay!
kynson> i was there, in my usual spot
kynson> are you going tomorrow, al?
[cufconline] Big Nev got an early bath - how we laughed !!!
[Gibby1] Did the crowd back the team from the start
kynson> what was he thinking???
[cufconline] I won't be going, might get to do a commentary in here
kynson> the vocals were good yesterday for the first half
[cufconline] Not sure 'bout the phone charge on Bank Holidays?
kynson> i think it counts as weekend
[cufconline] If that's the case, I'll  be running a commentary
[Gibby1] yay
[cufconline] Good crowd - 3765 about 1200 up on Brentford game. Good
- atmosphere in East Stand
kynson> phone up bt, they'll tell you, i think
[cufconline] okay
[Gibby1] Mother thinks ours are, but we're with cable
kynson> 3765 x £3 = £11295, less the Torquay fans.
[cufconline] MoM was Searle - good choice ?
kynson> i think so
[cufconline] More cash than we got for Caigy...
[Gibby1] wasit cheap entry yesterday?
kynson> whitehead, prokas and tracey were in the running i think as well
kynson> no - the club gave £3 vouchers to the fans
[cufconline] Can use for any remaining home game this season, or at club
- shop, or off season tickets
kynson> i bought two programmes with mine, and gave one to a steward!
[cufconline] Should ensure decent crowds for the rest of the season
[Gibby1] I agree with what Knighton said during the week, about solvency and
- relegation
kynson> i think once the red mist dissipates, we all would rather have a
- club.
[Gibby1] aye
[cufconline] You could have saved £3 on next season's season ticket, Dave
[Gibby1] see the hangers are bottom now
[cufconline] How many points for survival? I thought 45 pts 3 weeks ago, now
- maybe 49 or 50??
[Gibby1] possibly
kynson> aye, i could have saved the voucher, but i live for the moment
kynson> :-)
[cufconline] If we win tomorrow I feel certain we'll be OK
[Gibby1] I think a good result tomorrow will push us to safety
kynson> it would put 8 points between us, and i think we should do it now.
[cufconline] Derek Mountfield made an appearance at HT - thought he was still
- involved at Scarboro ?
kynson> after yesterday, i can't see us losing to scabby
[Gibby1] It has been a very nervy season
[Gibby1] I'll have to stop working these weekends and get to more games
[cufconline] Another good omen - our last two away wins were at Brighton &
- Southend. Next stop Scarborough - notice anything there ?
kynson> it has been a nightmare season, and after the early promise the squad
- seemed to have.
[Gibby1] all at the seaside?
[cufconline] Spot on!
kynson> i have to say that i thought knight did well for his home debut.
[cufconline] "Oh we do like to win beside the seaside!"
[Gibby1] Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
>> Bumble has joined channel #XC.1228116
kynson> bumble?
[Gibby1] bee
kynson> bee all you can bee
>> paulclements has joined channel #XC.1228116
kynson> ooh, they're flooding in now :-)
[Gibby1] hi paul
[paulclements] howay
[cufconline] They were yesterday - goals that is!
kynson> fnrr
[paulclements] about time too
kynson> it is a shame neville went off - we might have got 5 past him again!
[Gibby1] Maybe he done it to save himself the embarrasment
[paulclements] good result for borough at Hull.......
[cufconline] Poor old Neville - he'll have nightmares about BP from now on
[Gibby1] we have, all season
[paulclements] It looks like the chimp chokers could be going to nuneaton
- next season.....
kynson> shame we can't play him every week!
[cufconline] "Who ate all the pies? Who ate all the pies? You Fat bastard,
- you fat bastard, who ate all the pies???"
[Gibby1] I did
[cufconline] Though Nev's had his share, by the looks of him
[Gibby1] and the pasties as well
kynson> who was it said they had been talking to 'pool fans and they were
- convinced the 'pool were going down?
[paulclements] is everybody on this mailing list fat ?
[Gibby1] me
kynson> did you see the 'keepers jersey hanging off the lad in goal?
kynson> I'm a BFB.
[Gibby1] I am the Pie Man
[cufconline] Aye - surprised he didn't trip over it
[paulclements] in a stripey rugby shirt !
kynson> :-)
[paulclements] and a green haty
[paulclements] hat
kynson> will you be there pauL?
[paulclements] hat
>> perthblue has joined channel #XC.1228116
kynson> surfs up :-
[paulclements] not sure.....haven't decided yet
[Gibby1] he joins in time this week!
[perthblue] H I MEN!
[paulclements] its defo not all ticket ?
[paulclements] pay at the gate ?
kynson> i think so, not heard anything to the contrary
[cufconline] Hoping to do a commentary tomorrow - three pts and I reckon
- we're safe, virtually
[Gibby1] Se there was 14,000 at Hull yesterday
kynson> wow
[perthblue] So are we lucky enough to have commentry from Scarboro?
[paulclements] Did deggsy do the half time draw ?....I thought he was
- involved with the borough ??
[Gibby1] What was he doing there?
[cufconline] Hull fans have really got behind them - we need similar support
kynson> aye, he did the draw - maybe he is matey with neville
[Gibby1] mmmmm
[paulclements] I'm sure i saw him on sky sports with a borough track suit on
- ?
kynson> or maybe he is "coming home"
[paulclements] they were doing an article on him
[cufconline] If he was up here, he must have been spying on us
[paulclements] poss
[Gibby1] inch wide private eye
[cufconline] Should have left him with food for thought...
[Gibby1] No, I want the pies
[paulclements] never mind the pies
[perthblue] Were we worth 3-0 ?
[cufconline] Cracking goal by Searle yesterday
kynson> yes, we were worth it
kynson> second goal was flukey
[perthblue] What went right?
kynson> everything, for a change!
[paulclements] Was that geezer from wales (Eiffon Williams) playing....he's
- meant to be pretty good
[perthblue] I hear from my brother that there1s a few going to Scarboro?
[cufconline] Mr Williams was quiet - as were most Torquay forwards
[paulclements] ah
kynson> defence did well, kept it away from the goal most of the time,
- midfield were laying the ball around well na dmost of the time there were
- target men in the box for us. strangely, the target men were often defenders!
[cufconline] I reckon we could take 1,000 over there
>> Bumble has left channel #XC.1228116
[paulclements] whats happended to scott paterson...is he still around ?
[cufconline] Just thought "Bumble" "Mr Bumble" "Mr Knighton" - no surely not?
kynson> whoever it was, they never said anything!
[perthblue] I hope not!
kynson> oh come on, we love him really!
[paulclements] aye
[perthblue] Yeah right
kynson> anyway, i doubt knighton knows we are here.....
[paulclements] 2 promotions...2 wembleys....
[cufconline] Suspicious - possibly listening in to what's been said - perhaps
- he read the Marcus Knightworthy piece?
kynson> 2 relegations....
[paulclements] aye
[Gibby1] And a prtridge in a pear tree
[Gibby1] Partridge
[paulclements] aye
kynson> he would probably just get the transcripts
[perthblue] Is there anyone that could /would give Knighton what he wants for
- the club?
[cufconline] Surveillance operation? Clydebankies thought we were being
- "watched" didnt they?
[Gibby1] The manager's a junkie
kynson> operation bumble bee
[Gibby1] so they can sting us?
kynson> maybe it was just someone who bumbled in by mistake?
[cufconline] Still not sure if Mr Hibby was a management consultant
[Gibby1] and just buzzed off again
kynson> ah, but a bee dies after it stings someone
[cufconline] Perhaps the fans should form a consortium and offer to buy MK
- out?
[Gibby1] We'd need the rich fans?
kynson> he offered that, after a fashion, and could we raise £6m
[perthblue] I think it`s too good a buisiness for him to sell
[cufconline] We could let him keep the East Stand and buy the rest
kynson> hmm, don't think that would work!
[Gibby1] We'd have the biggest directors box in the world
[cufconline] He gets maybe 500k for the rest, and charges 50k a year in rent
- from the East Stand
kynson> are you saying he is well endowed/
[Gibby1] ha
kynson> did anyone watch graham norton?
[Gibby1] on his head maybe
[Gibby1] a bit
[cufconline] Soooooo Graham Norton
kynson> the woman who was "greedy" ?
kynson> the bucket/
[Gibby1] he really is a nice boy
[Gibby1] ooer
kynson> ouch, is all i can say!

[perthblue] Are you guys enjoying good easter weather?
[Gibby1] It's dull up here
kynson> anyway, getting back to the soccer, how about we try to organise
- something for the last match agfainst plymouth?
[Gibby1] is it at home?
kynson> a big meet up in the east stand before the match for some bevvies?
kynson> yes, at BP.
[Gibby1] what date?
[perthblue] sounds great to me!
[cufconline] To celebrate our impending survival/doom ?
kynson> 8 may

[cufconline] count me in

>> paulclements has joined channel #XC.1228116
[cufconline] Fatties - obsessed with pies...
[Gibby1] If it's a warm day I'll be very, very drunk
kynson> aye ;-)
[Gibby1] :-)
[paulclements] I've just had a look at Scarborough's only website.....its ok
kynson> oh, actually, i think my wembley shirts have had it - i might get
- another one done up.
[Gibby1] It's in the trophy room innnit?
[paulclements] there were 13,949 at hull......
[paulclements] Hoyland scores....wasn't he on loan with us a while back ???
kynson> perhaps i could get a t-shirt done with all the main links on it! 
- sad, or what?
[cufconline] yep
[Gibby1] very
kynson> :-(
kynson> :-)
[cufconline] Sell them outside the ground - finance the website operation?
kynson> hmm, don't think knighton would like that. let's do it!
[cufconline] Both me & Dave could carry advertising and make a tidy sum,
- looking at the rates on offer
[Gibby1] ooh rebels
kynson> perhaps we should offer advertising space to the club shop?
[Gibby1] they need it
[cufconline] Take money *off* the club? I'd rather take it off somebody else
[perthblue] So are we getting a commentry from Scarboro?
kynson> i was joking :-)
[cufconline] Assuming favourable phone rates, yes
[cufconline] thought so :)
[Gibby1] (-::-)
[paulclements] #
[paulclements] cu y
[Gibby1] +-=*
kynson> it might be interesting to do some t-shirts for the IML
[paulclements] xxxxxxxxxxxxl
kynson> ;-)
[Gibby1] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxlllllllllllllllllllll
kynson> as mr burns would say - XLent :-)
[paulclements] less pies more excercise
[cufconline] & Neville Southall sized
[Gibby1] Choose pies, choose a effing great big belly, choose beer
[paulclements] I'll keep a look out for you dave if I go tomorrow...you don't
- sound too difficult to spot !!
kynson> no, i'm easy. just ask around carlisle :-)
[cufconline] He's been lowered in by helicopter
[Gibby1] ooh
kynson> once seen, never forgotten, eh al?
[cufconline] It's part of the pre-match entertainment...
[Gibby1] that's the same with me
[paulclements] sounds like a two seat job
kynson> you know when you've been tangoes!
kynson> tangoed
[cufconline] michelin man, mr blobby etc etc
kynson> IML, It Means life, {other IML ancronyms},  Internet Mailing List
kynson> on the shirts?
[Gibby1] I'm a lean mean pie eating machine
[cufconline] Inebriated Most Likely
[paulclements] thats IALMPEM
[paulclements] down with pies
kynson> I'M Lardy!
[Gibby1] yep that's what I say
[paulclements] I'm off....I might see youze tomorrow......ta ta
kynson> we could put a different chant on the back of each one.
kynson> ok, bye paul
[Gibby1] see ya
>> paulclements has left channel #XC.1228116
[Gibby1] Well, i'm going to get well and truly hammered tonight and watch the
- footy
kynson> maybe we could do something with these shirts. speaking of which, i
- wonder if the club will sort out the sponsorship for next season
[Gibby1] how?
[cufconline] Why didnt they let us sponsor Nigel then ?
kynson> i think they just didn't get their finger out. Phil talked to them
- often enough
>> perthblue has left channel #XC.1228116
[cufconline] He's still got our money - so we could be in for next season -
- if Phil doesn't skip the country :)
[Gibby1] What has happened to the "official" ssite
[cufconline] They put it up last year and have done nothing with it
[Gibby1] lousy
kynson> we could come up with a design for the t-shirts and people could have
- their own chant (or whatever) on the back
[cufconline] Lack of resources, apparently
[Gibby1] ah
[Gibby1] Lack of staff?
kynson> hell, what does it take? al and i do ours in spare time.
[cufconline] "Knighton's a fat bastard" chant "Where's all the money gone?"
- chant, that sort of thing?
kynson> hmm, might have trouble getting those printed !-)
[Gibby1] I would have: I want Pies and Drink
[cufconline] Might have trouble getting those in to BP...
kynson> "Cumbria, my lord" for me
[cufconline] "No sleep till Dalston" "For Fox Sake" - whoops nicked that one
[Gibby1] You could do them on your own PC  with one of them t-shirt printing
- kits
[cufconline] Thats how I did mine
kynson> we should try and come up with some more IML phrases
[cufconline] But now me printer's knacked - thinking of investing in a new
- one
kynson> aye, but not everyone has them
kynson> i have an hp 670c, do they work on those
kynson> ?
[Gibby1] I was going to "borrow" one from my work
[cufconline] Mine's an Epson, but you can get HP compatible kits
[cufconline] I think about £10 for 10 special transfer sheets
[Gibby1] but there is only two so I think they would miss it for a couple of
- days
kynson> i use caldew enterprises for t-shirt printing - £10 for t-shirt _and_
- printing!
[cufconline] You also need an iron, of course
kynson> :-)
[cufconline] Maybe cheaper that way ..!
kynson> they are on port road - that is how much it was last year, might be
- more now.
kynson> i got my ibiza t-shirts done there
kynson> and wembley one
[Gibby1] I done my own Unioin Jack for 1st wembly
[cufconline] For bulk printing, they would probably be a better bet
kynson> well, we could work out the details and see if anyone on the list
- wants one. we could hand them out at the last game, or mail them.
[cufconline] I went down to the club shop for that one, got on Border TV
- briefly !
[cufconline] Good idea
