👕 Leaving aside all the many AI creations out there, what would you like to see in Carlisle United’s actual 2026/27 kits (which have been described as a "thing of beauty" by club bosses) when they're released this summer..? #cufc newsandstar.co.uk/sport/26109894…

@Libraise @newsandstar Of course. But difference between limited hope / being very up against it and "doomed" before a new manager had even got started?

@joncolman @newsandstar That's true. Psychology plays a part in results too, and if optimism was at a low there wouldn't be much hope.

@Libraise @newsandstar True, though I think in such a conversation there's still plenty of space to acknowledge shared responsibility - didn't hear that. And "we were doomed" with 54 points still to play for...not very reassuring either.

@joncolman @newsandstar True, but to play devil's avocado: on the podcast at the time of the quote they were talking about Carlisle's managers, not the players. Criticising Williamson at this point doesn't mean he's saying nobody else was to blame.

@Libraise @newsandstar Maybe not...but still possible to own your own part in something that was collectively dreadful? Easier just to talk about the boss.

@joncolman @newsandstar I see your point Jon, but he's hardly going to go on a podcast and say "well lads we went down because I'm a bit useless"

@thegaffa @newsandstar Without knowing the outcome of conversations that were said to be pending, we can't know that for sure ("It's not that straightforward" etc) Working assumption probably has to be that he's staying unless we're told otherwise - but either way, some clarity would help at some stage

@joncolman @newsandstar I think he’s staying, he said he was going away after the semi final, so back soon then it gets announced. All recruitment is being done by tierny n foyle whilst his away, otherwise they would have got rid straight away????

@james_cufc2000 @newsandstar Not disputing his right to have his say, or that his insights aren't worth hearing. But there was a wider picture too, which he and others were part of, and that deserves to be remembered when that period is being recalled and appraised.

@joncolman @newsandstar Agree Jon Josh played under three permanent mangers in two separate leagues for us and rarely played well in any game. Perhaps he needs to have a think why hes playing in an amateur league considering hes played over 200 professional games
