I beg to differ. It was all bad.

At least Curle is tying lads down to 6 month deals not 3/4 year ones, that way if there poor its not crippling the club.

How many 3-4 years contracts did Abbott hand out?

You do realise you cant put a higher buy out clause in if the player wont sign the contract if you do?.

Whatever anyone thinks of curle (I'm a bit 50/50) he has got all of us talking about the team. Theres definitely a buzz about and for the 1st time in a long time going to down to brunton is fun and worth the money

Having made the decision to sign a contract with carlisle ahead of one with rugby for wigan ..it was pretty obvious Dempsey was a talent with a future, why would they give him a contract with a small buy out ?
We would i think have got a lot more from a tribunal having come through the youth system ?

So in Nixons eyes that's a done deal, right?

I agree with that last bit, i said as much on here months ago. I dont think him having a offer to play for Wigans academy has any bearing though tbh.

I don't agree that Curle has "created disharmony", he has attempted to bring professionalism to the club and any disharmony has been created by the likes of Billy Paynter who couldn't be (fat) arsed to do what he was paid to do.

Unrest in the squad, failure to get the best out of players like Paynter, Dicker and Marrow. A defence that is worse now than when he joined. Endless players being signed with no sign that there is any plan in place. Players like Kennedy who was instrumental in keeping us up losing form. The only bright spot is Ibhere and when he was signed Curle said he wouldn't score goals. Please, please let him go to Posh

Steve Evans favourite now, missed a press conference due to an internal meeting. got a little bit more potential than Rotherham but he's got a job on his hands just to get back to the level that he's at now. guess a pay rise will swing it.

If you're holding Marrow against Curle you really are clutching at straws.

That post by Markovich would be laughable if he wasnt serious. Has Marrow played again since his release?. Shame if he hasnt as he must have been a real talent a few years ago.

The Alex Marrow who played for Crystal Palace, Oldham and Preston before coming here. He made 27 appearances in the Championship and Palace saw enough of him to sign him during his loan spell. But he wasn't good enough to get in the 92 nd team in the league?!

Your right he wasnt. At least youve changed your mind and admitted it. Bit sad really how his career took a downward spiral. Bit like another person mentioned lately. Andy Couzens. Scored for Leeds in David O'Learys first game in charge and we know what happened after that.

Marrow? Oh come on. Talk about clutching at straws.

The lad was released almost a year ago and still hasn't found a club!

Don't really know what Carlisle fans expect of our managers. Look at it from an outsider perspective.. Curle came into the club and kept us in the League with an awful squad which was low on morale. Yeah he pissed people off so what?! Kept us up didn't he? Now he's made his changes, mood at the club has swung and for once we're not bottom of the table at the start of September. I'm not expecting promotion this year but I'd take a top half finish. Really think some fans have unrealistic expectations.

How can you say he's not getting the best out of Dicker?

He gets 9 out of 10 every week in the match ratings thread off some folk on here.

Agree with ragingblue. Curled has done a job for us, he could win promotion, titles etc but it wouldn't be good enough for some. I sometimes think that if we, by some miracle, won the premiership in years to come whoever was the poor guy managing would still get slated by some for some reason.

Nah not good enough. If he cant get the best out of Hazard then how the hell is he gonna get the best out of Luke Joyce or Tom Kennedy?

I never get this bit where people want Curle to be our saviour because we didn't get relegated. He got appointed on the 19th September. September! It's not like he didn't have a chance to bring in his own people, use his tactics and increase morale. Just because we just about managed to not relegated doesn't mean Curle did a wonderful escapism job in 8 months of being manager last season.
Arise, Sir Jimmy

If I'm honest the games I've seen this season have been the most exciting I've seen at Carlisle in years. The way we're going about our business means the opposition are almost bound to score, but every time we get moving the ball around we look a real threat. The fact that he's made going to games more than a slog is a plus point in my view.

We are certainly exciting, watching Cambridge and Plymouth score 4 isn't boring. The problem is we don't have a team, we have one player. If Ibhere is injured tomorrow who will score our goals? Then 3 3 becomes 3 0. Miller is starting to look good and this season Dicker is playing well. But if Dicker is good why didn't he play last season? And why is he on the transfer list?
