Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

Good performance all round new bloke took his goals well. Bean man of the match for his combative around display. Only disappointment was Lees slow distribution which I think he many have been hooked at half time for.

Long way to go before the season is back on track but it's a start

They even played 'life is life' at half time! Just like the coppell glory days!

In all seriousness, fantastic performance. New striker is exactly what we need.

Some great performances there-Dean stood out fo me.

Really enjoyed second half on stream. Cracking performance. You reds!!

Good performances throughout. Saunders was great tonight but Berahino gets the headlines for his goals.

Very impressed with his second. Jockeyed the defender and struck it over the keeper from just inside the box.

Scunthorpe, Yeovil away, Exeter at home.
It's time to put a run together if we want this season to mean something.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

We out fought and outplayed Carlisle in every department. If we can perform like that consistently we will have a good chance of making the play offs. Berahino looks class.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

Looked dangerous. Like the diamond shaped midfield which suits some of the players. Dean, Boswell and Logan all excellent, Douglas & saunders stood out & berahino looks quick with superb technique. Very happy bunny!
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

If we can get Berahino on loan til season end then anything's possible. Good performance and can't see Alexander starting from now on.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

After twenty minutes of evenly matched play, the first goal - a Harlee Dean header from a Saunders cross - clearly gave the Bees confidence and goals two and three followed quickly. The second a well placed shot close in from Saunders , after Donaldson had been fouled in the area, the third a brilliantly taken shot from an unmarked Berahino from a pin point Logan cross.
Carlisle went to pieces after the first goal and started their usual fouling game but the Bees had their tails up and battled hard for every ball.
The fourth was a Premiership quality run and curling finish from Berahino.
Excellent performances from Saunders and Berahino. Donalson did well after Gary Alex was injured and subbed with Berahino - good hold up play, worked hard, some good unselfish passes - but alas no goal .
Logan and Bidwell did well (good crosses and sound defending) and Bean and Dave worked very hard, challenging for every ball.

Brilliant performance - very proud of of all the lads.

he wasn't well before the game..

I was working tonight during the game, but got to watch most of it on the TV. Thanks to their sh*t keeper, and a decent performance from us. Every time i think we can kick and build from this, our next three games are the make or break of our season, realistically we need nine points. COYR!
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

Saunders was fantastic tonight. He looked very classy indeed. The diamond really suits him. At last, we have a striker who can make his own chances and finish like a dream! :):):)

excellent performance. same team and formation saturday please uwe and we'll enjoy a long journey home :sorted:
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

The bees put on an excellent show today. Saw the grit we had been missing and the desire to win it in the final third. Berahino in particular took the chances when given and is quite clearly going to be fundemental if we want to push for the play offs. We were capitalising on their mistakes as well as a good performance from us but capitalising is something we often let go but today every single one of them had there heads up and put in a good shift.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

I thought Legge was superb tonight!
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

How important the first goal was.. Every player played their part tonight. Very solid and our hunger won us the game.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

I've only seen the Bee's on TV this season and both times they've looked superb. Dunno what all the moanings about... :wave:
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

Really good performance, lets hope we can make a late push for the play-offs now.

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

If we don't make the play-offs, but we get a fair few more performances like that, I'll be happy. It means more that I can say that after we haven't just lost ;) But if we can get us playing like that on a consistent basis, this season won't be a failure.

Fantastic performance, great second half, shame we couldn't turn it into a 5th goal but if that's my criticism that's not really a bad thing ;)

One question though, and maybe those who watched it on Sky will know more. What were the injuries that Alexander and Lee sustained? Were they serious (didn't seem it, Alex walked off unassisted and Lee stayed till half time). But did they elaborate for the cameras?

He is already on loan till May 31st! Let's hope there's no recall clause in the deal!

I have a feeling he's going to miss a game or two as he'll be with the England U-19's I believe some time soon.

Highlights on Late Kick Off tonight at 11 apparently

Think Alexanders may be hamstring.

were right back there in the mix now-our next few games (and equally Stevenages-I honestly believe its a fight between us two now) are crucial.

On camera the commentators said Lee was suffering from a stomach upset. I didn't catch the Alexander substitution - was away making tea - but later the commentators were talking about a trapped nerve. Hope it wasn't that.

Excellent performance tonight, best 90 mins this season. Sam was superb in the middle and Bean and Tourmani really played well. The best news is we've found a strike partnership, Clayton and Berahino looked top class, their pace and control is going to scare the life out of defenders. On tonights showing anything is possible !!

Is it just me or does anyone else think we played better after the plodding donkey went off ??

Well good performance all round id say.
Everyone did their bit and couldn't ask for more.
Really good goals from the new guy & good to see Dean score hes first goal.

Could of passed it alot better at times, but id take that if we win 4-0 everytime.

There's always some poster who puts a downer on things without switching on their brain first. Remind me who the top goalscorer is please? Ah yes, Gary Alexander, bye now.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

We won 4-0 and some of the kettle crew seem disappointed. Great night to be at GP. Berahino looked great and our general movement was good.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

Excellent performance all round. New lad clearly quality with bags of potential but whilst he grabs the headlines every player put in a good shift.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

I was outside after the game and saw GA limping out and overheard him saying to a friend of his that he got a knock on the hip which was causing him some pain.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

So Alexander goes off and young Berahino almost scores a hat trick. He really looked the part I must say, although I thought Beanie had a great game too. But the play that set up Berahino's first goal was really superb - Dave dug in really deep, won a tackle, put it over to Logan on the right who put in a sweet crossfield pass which came off the defender perfectly for him to slam into the back of the net. And his second was really beautifully swerved and lifted over poor Collin front of the Ealing Road. Great night at GP, a really excellent performance. Well done Uwe!

It's not as if Carlisle were poor, they weren't. They seemed well organised and moved the ball well. It's just that we were better!
Excellent spirit, everyone wanted it tonight and they played for each other.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

We played well could of easily scored 7-8.

Carlisle were really awful though.
 

Carlisle Match Reports and Reaction

Had a dinner arranged tonight with Faversham Town Football club months ago, thinking we only play on Tuesdays anyway. Normally as a season ticket holder always see every game. Gutted that the pub didn't have Sky but arranged for my nephew to text me when we scored. Great evening seeing those texts when the goals went in. Can't wait for the next home game with postponements etc.

Great game. It was live in Australia on Fox Sports 1.

I agree, the look a good side, movement was good, players seemed decent. It just seemed after our first two goals they gave up a bit, and same after we got the 4th.

They weren't in the second half at all but that was because of us rather than them being bad, ala Wycombe.

Oh the fickleness of the Brentford fan !

Uwe out, Uwe in, shake it all about.

Some of you lot make me laugh. Anyway for anyone interested with the "our home record is sh*t" opinion, our goals for total at home this year in the league has only been bettered by 4 teams in League 1.

Can't wait until we lose or draw next, will it be Uwe out again, everything is sh*t.

No team has scored more goals at home except Charlton, the MK Dons, and the two Sheffield sides.

It's always best after a 4-0 tonking to slag a player off, extra points if he's your top scorer too!!1
