@ThomasFeaheny Solid effort again from @bostonunited , I thought there'd be a drop off after last year but not a bit of it. Every away turnout over 100 with 3 localish (Wealdstone, Brackley & Solihull) left.

@bostonutdstats Putrid is a bit strong Christian. We scored 2 excellent goals and had them worried going into the last half hour. I thought we were well in it even at 3-2, but they picked us off last 15 minutes as we inevitably tired.

Putrid performance eventually punished by a less-than-perfect Carlisle. 11 goals shipped in 2 visits here First recorded time we’ve conceded a pen, own goal and had a red card in a league game EVER Not recorded a worse second half (0-5) since 1964- 6 conceded in a 7-0 at Goole

@UK47Gooner @bostonunited Bit unfair mate, 11 v 11 and its never 6-2, but they picked us off after the red card. And if the effort goes in instead of hitting the bar at 3-2 they are wobbling.

@bostonunited That crowd there are a massive hindrance to thst side, they got on the players backs at every turn, every bad pass & mistake and they had a go. They only got behind them when they were 2 goals clear and the game was won. At 2-2 with 11 that's a tight game, but they were ruthless

@ButlerAndy Tell me about it! And I somehow preferred the Chelsea of back then. We went to games with hope rather than expectation!

@kirtonskeldyke Old skool Chelsea I never knew Fair play Paul, bet you're like most, priced out these days by the nu footie audience. I went twice before the money came in, very edgy down there, but in a good way, old London boozers and character galore.

@FootballInT80s Proper Sheffield United goal of that era, not a lot of subtlety but very effective, that tactic u did much better sides than that Chelsea one.

34 years ago today: The Chelsea and Stamford Bridge of 1992 couldn’t be further away from the institution that exists now. Sheffield United’s winning goal that day belongs to a very different era too.

@ButlerAndy @officialcufc I'm on a three hour (THREE EFFIN HOUR) safeguarding course for the bowls club this morning 🤦‍♂️. Probably being taught we can't refer to coffin dodgers as coffin dodgers 🤷 Oh for a three hour bus journey, football banter, and a savoury pastry. You lucky person @ButlerAndy 😁

3 generations and to be the last in the line is tough. Please try and support the events he puts on, there are very few, if any venues like The Glider left and it needs a preservation order slapping on it now!

Like Andrew who works tirelessly to keep The Gliderdrome going despite other attractions and a lack of funding that is both extraordinary and shameful in equal measures when you see what is handed over to other fly by night projects. The football club has been in his family for

I want to thank Andrew Malkinson for his help making this happen. The 3 of us were privileged to be the last fans allowed in to the ground, we've all done the hard yards over the decades and it was clear this was a tough moment for Andrew too, life can be very tough for good guys
