TOPIC: Its ironic really

All of us board warriors calling for a change in ownership and booting the lying ***** out; yet these same custodians have supported Keith Curle in getting the current team together with the results we are all seeing (and enjoying). The cynics amongst us will claim that the 3 are only in it for themselves, but I don't think this thought bears critical examination. My thought is that many of the fans will be perfectly happy at the moment and while welcoming a new owner will not mind the 3 remaining in charge. Judged in football terms only it is difficult to disagree with such a sentiment.

You may be right.

Your not right.

Its no secret my twining of getting shot of the horsemen is priority and this must not be allowed to drop in my view. The billionaire issue-shafting Lapping is still a disgrace and this MUST NOT be allowed to be swept under the carpet.

Right then

Yes the footballs better then it has been but we are currently 10th in a tin pot league in a league we shouldn't really be in given our possibilities.
The club was running at a loss for the last 5 seasons being kept alive by one man.
A crumbling stadium that hasn't had any major improvements in 20 years.
A owner that calls supporters [censored] for not going along with his every decision.
The billionaire dupe and the lies that followed it.
Treating someone that was only willing to help out with utter contempt.
Another owner that tells people not to come if they don't like it and criticizes the other directors and media in a text to "Keith"
Dreadful matchday experience compared to other clubs at the same level.

Theres more but i can't remember just now, but alls good tickerty boo

Yeah, but apart from that what have the Romans ever done for us?

I agree with pretty much everything there, but wasn't AJ addressing JP not the fans? Also, I think the texts were from Keith, not to him.

Mullen the bit you missed out was AJ swearing at the commentary box on air.
Have to agree with you their behaviour is unforgivable and until they are dethroned the long term future of the club is under threat.

Are them eyes pented on pacirv or what?

I have to say that I have thought long and hard about what is important over the last few months-long term financial security for the Club or a few moments in the sun with two cup runs and a promotion challenge.

Given I have been watching Carlisle since 1969,and glory has been in short supply,I'm erring on the side of enjoying the moment!This is a season we all dream about so for me,I'm getting 120pc behind thinking the positive rather than the negative.In reality,the fact we are having a great season significantly helps financially too.

We support Carlisle on a Saturday because we want them to win on the pitch-I don't go to BP worrying about debt and cashflow.

A reorganisation of the Club's long term ownership will also be so much easier from this position-the owners will know that.

In short,time to set aside any ownership issues for a couple of weeks and enjoy the moment.

I wouldnt say 10th in league 2 is great but its certainly better than the last few years.

I agree-but compared to looking into the abyss,we are in clover.Remember I was still ploughing on with the deal even if we were relegated so as I sit today,this has been the mother of all turnarounds and KC deserves huge credit

Definitely. Keith has done a fine job of turning things around. Hopefully he'll be able to strengthen further. Were capable of making the playoffs and could yet get promotion.

FFS get a grip. Keith Curle has succeeded IN SPITE of the BOD, NOT because of them.

Here's one all of you can try at home, wherever that home is;

Take your right hand and put it on your left shoulder.
Take your left hand and put it on your right shoulder.

Managed all that? Good

NOW GIVE YOURSELF A F*CKING SHAKE!!!!!!

I don't think that the large majority of fans will agree with you.

Maybe. Maybe not yet. But a couple of extremely lucky cup runs just paper over the cracks. They will come to their senses in time.

I think you are wrong! 1.8 million in debt to AJ proves they have the wrong business plan and they have had a lot of luck this year thanks to Keith and properly more importantly Lee Dykes recruitment. If you look at went right this year financial is two young players sold (no one else to sell on now), two premier league draws (can't bank in that every year) and story loan paid off (will Jenkins do the same next year???).

You still think JN is a rank amateur in a time warp as you have previously described him Cayambe?

I do agree with that (but can't remember writing it). I'm not referring to those who post on here but the bulk of the fans, who concentrate on the football and not all the shite that surrounds it. The 1,000 or so stayaways don't go down to BP due to the crap that has been on display (plus their own £ circumstances) - better football will lead them to return no matter who the owners are.

My point is that I am ignoring the board,most of whom are irrelevant anyway.For me,I'm gladly enjoying the moment as once it's over,it's gone. There is plenty of time to see the required and obvious changes unfold and there is hardly a better time for the billionaire to reveal himself,short of a run in the Champions League.

I think KC sums up the difference in approach by the three amigos, which no doubt he has been instrumental in achieving, in his post-Yeovil comments: "the thinking in the past was to run the club on cost and savings. That is very important, but value has been added to that train of thought..."

I take that to mean he has been able to get Nixon and Co to actually invest some money here and there rather than scrimp, save and cut budgets the whole time - let's hope we see more evidence of this in this transfer window.

With the additional coverage that a fourth round game against a big team on TV will produce - will there be any mention of the mystery billionaire episode in the national media?

Lets hope the limo turns up again....
Then again more likely to interview a happy clapper- local brown noser like shaldon who cant praise the horsemen enough for utter failure
